Pick of the week

It’s not quite Ocean’s Fourteen, but the reunion of George Clooney and Brad Pitt in Jon Watts’s nimble caper offers up the same easy charm and easy-on-the-eye star quality. They play underworld fixers who are both called on when Amy Ryan’s New York district attorney ends up with a dead young man (Austin Abrams) on her hotel room floor. He’s not dead, actually, but he does have a bag full of drugs he’s due to drop off. Amid some choice bickering and oneupmanship, the duo join forces to tidy up the loose ends before dawn, while the skills Watts honed in his Spider-man trilogy are used well, particularly in a fun, frantic chase through the nighttime backstreets.
