Somethings i don't understand in this movie


1-How Jess and Garriga know each other !
And how Jess came to europe , same place as Nicky went



2-EXR thing and how Nicky got the information !
Garriga said that Jess never been in his room so how Nicky got the EXR data ?



3-Why Jess will chase someone for a week just for a watch that worth 200,000$
She can steal from people and make that amount of money in a day or 2

Garriga thought of Jess as a poolside skank.. as he called her..
she was trying to play him to steal his 200,000 watch.

Owen, who was Nicky's mentor, had worked his way close to Garriga.
He helped get the computer password... Jess had nothing to do with it.

Jess was not big time. the watch was huge for her.. and at the end... she got it.



I usually love Will Smith... but this was pretty mediocre for me..

Buenos Aires isn't in Europe, man.

1. They wanted us to believe their meeting was all a big coincidence.

Everything else has already been answered above, except, correction: 3. she did NOT get the watch. Garriga points at it when she mentions it.

Yes she does get the watch. She's wearing it when she's helping Nickie to the hospital in the last shot.

Watch the last scene again. When Will Smith says that they don't have any money now, she is seen flashing the watch on her wrist and he starts laughing.

reply

yeah the "jokes on him" for losing the watch

2- They never specifically say how they got the EXR data, but I assume Nicky got it from Owen (Nicky's father) who was working for Garriga and in on the scam.
