A movie can have the best ingredients, ideas and intentions but still slip on a banana peel, as "The Score" neatly demonstrates. Directed by veteran artisan Frank Oz and boasting an extravaganza cast of Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro and Edward Norton, "The Score" is mindful of a handsome real-estate agent whom you heard very good things about and decide to trust about a property in Florida, only to have him hand over a chunk of swamp land swarming with alligators. "You can do great things with land like this," he enthuses. "Think mangroves in the garden pond. Think handmade wooden deck. Think . . . Swiss Family Robinson!" Yeah, right.
