The Job is a 2009 crime thriller directed by Shem Bitterman and starring Patrick John Flueger, Ron Perlman, and Taryn Manning. The film follows Mike (Flueger), a down-on-his-luck ex-con who is desperate for money and hits rock bottom when his girlfriend (Manning) leaves him. In an effort to turn his life around, Mike teams up with a career criminal named Eddie (Perlman) to pull off a high-stakes heist.

The film opens with Mike getting out of jail and discovering that his girlfriend has moved on without him. He struggles to find a job and ends up living out of his car. One day, he comes across Eddie, who he knew from his time in prison. Eddie offers Mike a chance to make some easy money by robbing a wealthy businessman who keeps millions in cash in his safe.

Mike is hesitant at first, but he soon realizes that this is his chance to turn his life around. The plan seems foolproof - they'll break into the businessman's house while he's away, crack the safe, and disappear with the money. However, things quickly go awry when they discover that the businessman is not only home, but he's armed and dangerous.

As they struggle to get the money and escape, Mike and Eddie are forced to confront their own demons and work together to stay alive. Along the way, they encounter a colorful cast of characters, including the businessman's eccentric wife (played by Joe Pantoliano) and a crooked cop (played by Eric Balfour) who has his own agenda.

Throughout the film, there are several twists and turns as Mike and Eddie race against time to get out with the money. The tension is palpable as they navigate through a maze of challenges and obstacles, all the while knowing that one wrong move could mean the end for both of them.

The Job is a gritty, intense crime thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. The performances are solid across the board, with Flueger and Perlman in particular delivering standout performances as two men who are desperate for a second chance. The film is also visually stunning, with gorgeous cinematography that captures the seedy underbelly of the criminal underworld.

Overall, The Job is a must-see for fans of crime thrillers. It's a well-crafted, engrossing film that doesn't pull any punches, and it's sure to keep you guessing until the very end.

The Job is a 2009 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 47 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.9.
