6. The Fantastic Ensemble Cast

The one thing above all else that Honour Among Thieves benefits from is the undeniably game efforts of its ensemble cast, who are absolutely committed to this material.

Chris Pine again gets to show how skilled a comedic performer he is, while as his comrade Holga, Michelle Rodriguez gets to demonstrate a little more personality than her blockbuster roles usually allow her.
