I saw this film a few weeks ago after receiving it through the post from lovefilm, and I was eager to get it on and watched as it looked like a great film, something a little different without the need for gimmicks. It was just that and it didn't disappoint one bit. I have since read somewhere that this film was based on a true story, but after a little digging I am 99% sure that this isn't the case. The thing that I liked about this film was that it was set in the late 1950s and early 60s, and while providing you with a great plot of a diamond heist, it also dared to be different and address a major problem of the time, which was women in the workplace.

I don't think I've ever seen a bad Michael Caine film, and that is the reason why I picked up this film from blockbusters. We sat down to watch this film not knowing what to expect, from the first time we saw Demi Moore heavily covered in make up as she's supposed to be playing an old woman we were thinking this film was going to be pretty crap, as she opened up her mouth and showed her perfect dentures, it looked pretty much ridiculous. The film however quickly picked up... ====== The Plot ====== Demi Moore plays Laura Quinn a woman who works in a male dominated workplace that deals with diamonds, called The London Diamond Company or ...

Before I start my review for the new Demi Moore and Michael Caine movie, I need to clear something up. Flawless is not a true story or even based on a true story; it is a complete work of fiction despite what numerous magazines and online movie review sites state. It's something that has grown to annoy me more and more over the past months, especially when the story revolves around what would be the biggest theft in living history. The basis of Michael Radford's new film is sexism in the workplace during the 1950's and 1960's; and the comparisons to our current climb, I guess the actual crime itself is a secondary factor to this. Certainly at the offset Demi ... Read the complete review

Another reviewer of this film says they have never seen a bad Michael Caine film; well I'm assuming they haven't seen Blame It on Rio, which coincidentally stars Demi Moore and was truly bad. But as Flawless is the story of a diamond heist I thought it sounded interesting. The film opens with a barely recognisable Demi Moore made up to look like an old lady (albeit with a rather silky bob haircut) meeting up with a young female reporter who is interviewing the trailblazing women of the 60s who achieved great things in their careers at a time when women were presumably confined to their kitchens. This is a bit at odds with the tale that then unfolds which has ... Read the complete review

Flawless is a mystery hiest movie directed by Micheal Radford. Starring Micheal Caine as hobbs and Demi More as laura Quinn who works for a diamond company. The story is set in the 60's and follows laura in her job, underapreciated and a hard worker she gets involved a a plan to steal some diamonds with The janitor (hobbs) Who also has another agenda. Angry at her bosses laura joins Hobbs in trying to steal from her employers but is unaware of Hobbs true motives. The film is pretty by the numbers and the heist isnt the best on film. Micheal Caine stands out and saves the film from being run of the mill. His character has another agenda ... Read the complete review
