Apple TV+ con-artist thriller Sharper pulls a fast one on audiences
, it can feel like the movies forgot all about the natural appeal of a great swindler story. There is a gutter-level joy in watching a film engineer and then solve its own criminal puzzle – as if the filmmakers are presenting audiences with a promise that we know, or hope, won’t be broken: You’ll figure this out, so long as you pay extremely careful attention.
Following a group of impossibly sexy grifters in a New York filled with grimy dives and sky-high palaces , director Benjamin Caron’s feature debut has the look and feel of a classic con movie. But not the cold, calculating soul. Just how the script ties together Sandra and Tom to Max, Madeleine and Richard is, presumably, half or even three-quarters of the fun here – yet the twists and turns inherent to scam cinema are easily guessed by anyone with even a passing familiarity of the genre.
