Starring Edward Burns, Rachel Weisz, Andy Garcia, Dustin Hoffman, Brian Van Holt, Paul Giamatti, Louis Lombardi. Jake Vig, a sharp and polished conman, has just swindled thousands of dollars from the unsuspecting Lionel Dolby with the help of his crew and two corrupt LAPD officers.

But as Jake soon learns, Lionel wasn't just any victim, he was an accountant for eccentric crime boss Winston King.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Jake offers to repay 'The King' by pulling off the biggest con of his career.

The fall guy is to be Morgan Gillette, a banker with deep ties to organized crime. With so much riding on the outcome, Jake decides to bring in a brash, blonde pickpocket named Lily (Rachel Weisz), who joins the crew in a complex scheme involving corporate loans, creative accounting, wire transfers and off-shore accounts.

The first sign of trouble comes when Lily arrives for work with a head of freshly dyed red hair, a bad omen if ever there was one.

To make matters worse, Jake also must contend with his old nemesis, FBI agent Gunther Butan, The King's henchman Travis and a double-crossing partner. Against these diminishing odds, Jake and his crew will have to stay one step ahead of both the criminals and the cops to finally settle their debt.

Confidence is an elaborate suspense drama from director James Foley. It suffers from an un-charismatic central performance - but with a supporting ensemble cast that includes Dustin Hoffman, no-one's going to walk away feeling conned.
