They did not play on the fact that the audience may be looking for clues as to what is going on. I was busy trying to figure out what the con was before it happened and that's where the movie kind of disappoint. Anyway, knowing that it was about con artists and the tag-line is "Never loose Focus" I never really let my guard down and I didn't let myself believe what I was seeing. I walked into the movie theater knowing that it was about con-artists - the marketing never hid it, if you've seen the trailer you know this. My main problem with Focus is that I wasn't engaged in the story, it wasn't because it's poorly written, it's not. The movie is entertaining, the story is somewhat interesting, but - of course there is a but - it could have been much better. Despite the cast my expectations were low, so I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't much of a stinker. Focus is a better movie than I anticipated, actually that's a lie. He could honestly only go up following After Earth. The Will Smith redemption movie, Focus, was a bit of a step up from After Earth.
