It's a magnificent comedy movie that picks up right after 25 minutes of the start. Both actors including Ben Stiller were excellent and the movie was amazing through out. FAQ 1. The penthouse is owned by Arthur Shaw Alan Alda , a financial wheeler-dealer, whose walls display priceless modern art. His most prized possession is a bright red Ferrari, once owned by Steve McQueen. The FBI is on the job because Shaw has been running a Ponzi scheme, and among his loot are the pension plan and investments of the tower's employees.
So dear old Lester and all the others are penniless. Enraged, Kovacs recruits a team to break into the apartment. Obviously, this requires stealing the car from the penthouse, where there's no door or elevator that can handle it. The team: Lester, of course; Mr. Murphy, in his first role since , is in full Eddie Murphy mode, with comic riffs and astonished double takes. I won't describe how they plan to get the car out of the building, especially as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is passing directly below.
But let me share with you that I suffer from a fear of heights, and the last thing you could get me to do is stand next to an open window on an floor upper of a high-rise and try to reach out and grab a Ferrari. The notion that no one would notice a bright red car being lowered from the tower is preposterous, but realism is not the point. This movie would fall to pieces if it didn't hurtle headlong through its absurdist plot without ever pausing for explanations.
