Crooks

The plot centers around Sol Solzberg, a sixty-five-year-old postman portrayed by Charlie Callas. After sharing his plan to rob valuable stamps during a night of drinking, Sol unexpectedly dies from a heart attack. This leads bartender Nicky, played by Michael Marino, to rally a team of bumbling crooks, including his best friend Paul, played by Jim Norton.

The film explores themes of misguided ambition and the absurdity of crime through the antics of this hapless group of Jersey boys. As they navigate their way through the planning and execution of the caper, audiences are treated to a comedic take on the classic heist narrative. Crooks captures the essence of early 2000s comedy, making it a notable entry for genre enthusiasts and collectors alike.
