NOTES Two young con men are trying to make a couple of million.

Their schemes range from a computer connected con to

laying the same insulating material in a row of houses

connected by their attics. For their first con they hire a

medical student (Beckinsale) as their secretary. And really

the only thing worth seeing in the film is Beckinsale, though as some might say, the film is a lively romp. Beckinsale looks good and she can act, though not much of that in evidence here. Her character is also cleverer than the two men and she 'diverts' their money to the cause of the home where her brother who has learning difficulties lives. Apparently the brother is played by an actor with learning difficulties.
