"Museo" is a heist movie but not a typical one. It is based on the greatest heist in Mexico history when in 1985 two collage dropouts, close friends, stole a large number of priceless Indian pieces of art from the National Museum of"Museo" is a heist movie but not a typical one. It is based on the greatest heist in Mexico history when in 1985 two collage dropouts, close friends, stole a large number of priceless Indian pieces of art from the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. 

Motives for the robbery are far from being crystal clear. Were they just bored and wanted to do something of significance?
Did they just want to get rich? Or maybe they wanted to get somehow attached to the ancestors' history by stealing sacred artifacts? And what is "stealing" after all?
Mexican government took it from the Indians and placed into the National Museum - isn't it a theft in itself?

The movie switches gears from a light comedy and satire when showing family and heist itself to philosophical reminiscences by one of the perpetrators.
In my opinion it would get better if it shed half an hour.
