Gambit is a 2012 comedy-crime film directed by Michael Hoffman and starring Colin Firth, Cameron Diaz, and Alan Rickman. The film is a remake of a 1966 film of the same name, and follows the story of an art curator named Harry Deane (Colin Firth) who teams up with a rodeo queen named PJ Puznowski (Cameron Diaz) to pull off an elaborate art scam.

The movie is set in London, where Harry Deane is a curator at a private art museum. However, he is constantly belittled and mistreated by his rich and arrogant boss, Lionel Shahbandar (Alan Rickman). Harry hatches a plan to get revenge on Shahbandar by conning him out of millions of dollars through a fake art sale.

To execute his plan, Harry enlists the help of PJ Puznowski, a Texan rodeo queen with a talent for accents and impersonations. Together, they travel to Texas to steal a valuable painting owned by Shahbandar and replace it with a fake. They then plan to sell the real painting to Shahbandar for millions of dollars, and disappear with the money.

The movie is a hilarious comedy that follows the duo as they plan and execute their con, and deal with unexpected challenges and obstacles along the way. Colin Firth is excellent as Harry Deane, portraying him as a smart and witty character who is determined to get revenge on his boss. Cameron Diaz is equally impressive as PJ Puznowski, bringing her trademark charm and humor to the role.

Alan Rickman is also great in his role as the arrogant and pompous Shahbandar, creating a character that the audience loves to hate. His interactions with Harry and PJ are particularly entertaining, as they constantly outsmart and humiliate him.

Aside from the excellent performances, the movie also features some beautiful cinematography and visually stunning scenes. The Texas landscapes and rodeo scenes are particularly impressive and make for some great eye candy.

The plot of the movie is engaging and keeps the audience hooked until the very end. The twists and turns in the story keep things interesting, and the final reveal of the con is both satisfying and surprising.

Overall, Gambit is a fun and entertaining movie that is perfect for fans of comedy and crime films.
