Matchstick Men - 2003 ***


'Matchstick Men' was a bit of an odd film. Quite quirky, and rather amusing but with a hint of a poignant story buried inside. Nicholas Cage and Sam Rockwell play con-men. Cage has a nervous tic coupled with manic OCD and Rockwell is ruthless and unsympathetic towards anyone especially his partner.
The film follows their various jobs and Cage's surprise meeting of a daughter he never knew he had. But there is a twist.
Worth a watch.
