Sinekatalog’s take
A sophisticated art thief is sprung from prison on probation by a corrupt doctor to steal a famous Renaissance portrait for a shady dealer. The Polish caper is slick and funny, with a taste for elaborate schemes. Great fun for lovers of heist comedies.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
