"Tower Heist", Ben Stiller's latest movie will hit the screens on November 2, 2011. After Jim Carrey's "Fun with Dick and Jane" a dozen movies with similar synopsis flocked the screen. "Tower Heist" too has a similar script. But, we can certainly expect more from Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy. News is afloat that Ben Stiller is paid $15 million for this movie. We hope the actor does justice to his payment.
Brett Ratner, the director of "Tower Heist" is no new face. He is quite famous for his Rush Hour series. He has a unique style of mixing humor with action. We can see his trademark action scenes and mind-blowing comedy in this movie too. Eddie Murphy and Ben Stiller both are known for their exemplary humor sense. The other cast includes Casey Affleck, Matthew Broderick, Michael Pena, and Gabourey Sidibe. Brian Grazer who enthralled us with his earlier productions like "A Beautiful Mind" and "American Gangster" is the producer of this movie.
The synopsis
Ben Stiller plays the character of Josh Kovacs, a worker in the luxurious Central Park condominium 'The Tower'. His crew manages the day-to-day activities of many well-secured residences in the condominium. One resident in the building Arthur Shaw, robs their pension money in a Wall Street scam. Alan Alda plays the role of Arthur Shaw. He is under house arrest in his deluxe penthouse for stealing more than two billion dollars in the scam.
"Fun with Dick and Jane" fame Tea Leoni plays the part of a FBI agent Claire Denham. She is responsible for guarding Arthur Shaw and capturing the stolen money. Arthur is waiting for the right moment to escape with the stolen money. The staffs of the condominium strongly believe he has hidden the money in his penthouse. They join together under Ben Stiller to hire a petty thief to steal the money from the high security house. Eddie Murphy is comical thief who manages to commit the crime amidst countless blunders.
The burglary takes place amidst the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The film's crew had taken painful steps to recreate the original parade with hundreds of amateur actors. All the leading artists in the film, including the Tea Leoni, Ben Stiller and Alan Alda are native New Yorker's. They have grown up witnessing the parade year after year. They co-operated fully with the director's effort to recreate the parade, sacrificing their Thanksgiving holidays.
"Tower Heist" trailer promises a complete family entertainer. The script and the cast had increased the expectations of the film widely. We have no doubt that, this humor cum action movie will be a great pre-festival entertainer.
