Some years later while on another job Nicky encounters the beautiful Jess again, which now somewhat complicates his focus on the new score.The two lovers must do whatever it takes to not expose themselves to the possible dangerous risk that their new mark can present.


Reel Talk:

Focus is that deal!!! This movie was on point with a good cast, a good story and good directing. The chemistry between Will Smith and Margot Robbie is a good match also as they both provide a good mix of sultry sex appeal that adds to their characters as con artists. Their scenes are sexy but not illicit which leaves me to wonder why the R rating?  So this is definitely a movie worth cashing out and checking out. Big Willie is back!
