Criminal! That's the one I've been trying to remember the name of - yeh the reviews of Bluffmaster do seem to remind of the Criminal.

************** SPOILER ALERT for those that have not seen the flick yet ****************

I was alluding more to MATCHSTICK MEN. The climax indianised ofcourse to a great extent, which is why I did not say a frame-2-frame copy (unlike EK AJNABEE). the plot's a copy, but i will give them the consolation of having done decent job of adapting it. but its still a steal!

matchstick men is nowhere like bluffmaster.. fair enough it has a similar storyline about con men, but its exucated really well...

Which is why I called it a plot lift and not a frame-2-frame copy(unlike EK AJNABEE). Also which is why it qualifies to be called an adaptation. It is without doubt entertaining.

Bluff Master has raked up more (26% more) $$s in the 2nd weekend as compared to the first weekend. First week was under $ 200,000. But with the second weekend, thanks to X-mas holidays, it has now accumulated respectable over $ 400,000 in 11 days from the US market.
