Fans are calling on everyone to watch this charming heist film featuring Will Smith and Margot Robbie before it leaves Netflix.
Will Smith is a legend in the movie industry and Margot Robbie has tailored a very impressive resume in just over a decade.
But the pair have a brilliantly fun flick that they both starred in that slipped under the radar for some fans.
And no, I’m not talking about Suicide Squad...

In this film from 2015, fans have insisted the pair have ‘electric chemistry’ and it only leads to a great end product as a result.
So if you are a fan of either of the star leads (how could you not be) it might be worth giving it a watch while it is still on Netflix.
The film in question is called Focus and follows con artist Nicky, played by Will Smith, who takes Jess, played by Margot Robbie, under his wing after noticing she has a flare and talent for this wild con game.

The flick features a whole bunch of fun scenes that reveal that great con artists don’t need that big 100 million dollar score, but instead can charm, pick pocket, and cheat their way into your wallets any time and all the time.
Writing on Reddit, some fans admitted the film does have some faults but are easily ignored if you like a suave heist movie with two charismatic leads.
One user wrote: “I enjoyed this movie, a nice little con man movie that tried to be as fun as Ocean's Eleven and as character driven as The Thomas Crown Affair and walks away pretty successful.
“Will Smith and Margot Robbie were fantastic together and even separately. They really bounced off on another and made the movie honestly.”

Another wrote: “Smith and Robbie's electric chemistry makes it a light and entertaining affair. It also helps that Margot Robbie is a ridiculously attractive human being who does ridiculously attractive things for two whole hours.”
A third added: “I honestly really enjoyed this movie. Is it the best movie I've ever seen? No. But it is funny! [It’s] a very light-hearted, sexy, fun time and it also looks absolutely stunning.
“Will Smith is back to doing good Will Smith things. Plus Margot Robbie is a goddess. 7/10.”

With another fan simply writing: “This movie definitely has it faults and plot holes, but overall it is pretty enjoyable. Just don't over think this one and you'll be fine.”
Admittedly, the film didn’t fare well with critics when it released, only managing a 56% score on Rotten Tomatoes. But with that said, some fans have still managed to find plenty of enjoyment in it, and you could be one of them.
The film is currently available to rent on Prime Video and Apple TV and available for free on Netflix but is set to leave in October.
