Focus is a 2015 American crime comedy-drama directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa. Will Smith stars as Nicky Spurgeon, a veteran con artist and pickpocket who takes on a young, attractive grifter named Jess Barrett, played by Margot Robbie, as his protégé. The pleasure of Focus lay in its confidence game structure — the audience, like Jess, could never be certain what was genuine emotion and what was manipulation, and the film kept the balance engaging throughout.

Will Smith and Margot Robbie's chemistry was electric, filmed during the period when Robbie was transitioning from unknown Australian actress to global star. The Super Bowl pickpocketing montage and the high-stakes gambling sequence with BD Wong were the film's standout set pieces. Focus earned $159 million worldwide on a $50 million budget.
