JUST BUSINESS

Cinemavixion Review

Jonathan Dueck's "Just Business" presents a taut thriller that delves into the shadowy world of art heists and familial desperation. The narrative centers on Elizar Perla, a retired cat burglar drawn back for one final, high-stakes job targeting a renowned collector. When Elizar disappears post-heist, his daughter Marty is thrust into a dangerous search for answers, reluctantly partnering with the collector himself. What begins as a quest to find her father evolves into a complex unraveling of secrets, revealing a conspiracy far more intricate and perilous than a simple theft. Gina Gershon and Jonathan Watton anchor the film with compelling performances, navigating the morally ambiguous landscape with skill. Dueck masterfully builds suspense, transforming a seemingly straightforward plot into a gripping exploration of trust, deception, and the lengths one will go to protect their own.
