Very predictable movie

This movie was about con men/women and focusing your attention while they rob you but it was very predictable.

When the ending happened, it was just so obvious. For a film about misdirection and shifting your focus it was very obvious and predictable.

Unlike the OP, I am not going to claim to have figured it out well in advance...However, I did connect the dots on the bald guy being the father a few minutes before it was revealed.

Will Smith's character telling the stories about his father being 0-3 using that ploy served as good foreshadowing. Once I recalled it, the rest fell into place.

Terrible movie, quite boring.

Will Smith has had many better roles.
