Mortdecai

In the vein of Austin Powers and Inspector Clouseau, Mortdecai is a witty caper comedy about finding a missing painting in the world of black market art dealers. After a priceless panting is stolen, shady art dealer Charlie Mortdecai (Depp) is recruited by an old rival (McGregor) to get it back. Mortdecai questions his rival’s intentions but takes the job for the money and to keep his high-maintenance wife (Paltrow) happy. With the help of his manservant (Bettany), Mortdecai must face terrorists, angry Russians, and more in a globe-trotting chase. Based on the novel Don’t Point That Thing At Me from “The Mortdecai Trilogy” by Kyril Bonfiglioli. (Gary Reber)
