Will and Margot's 'Focus': Why This Underrated Crime Drama Deserves Another Look
USATue Nov 12 2024
Did you know that Will Smith and Margot Robbie's first movie together wasn't a superhero blockbuster? Let's talk about 'Focus', a movie that's been blowing up on Netflix lately. Released nine years ago, it's not your typical action-packed film. Instead, it's a crime drama with a unique twist – it features Will and Margot's undeniable on-screen chemistry.
'Focus' might not have the flashy special effects of 'Suicide Squad', but it has something else – a clever storyline with constant surprises. The movie got mixed reviews, with some critics saying it was a bit shallow. But despite that, it's still their best collaboration. Why? Because it keeps viewers guessing, showcasing Will and Margot's abilities to play off each other flawlessly.
So why isn't 'Focus' talked about more? Maybe it's because of their more famous roles in other blockbusters. But maybe, just maybe, it deserves another look. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but isn't that what makes it stand out? A film that dares to be different in a world full of superhero flicks.
