Amazon.co.uk Review

Sean Connery plays a master thief thought to be long retired, while Catherine Zeta-Jones is his foil, a hotshot insurance investigator assigned to his case. They both have a little something to hold over each other's heads, until it turns out that Zeta-Jones is a professional art thief herself and is playing on both sides of the fence. At first they eye each other with mutual distrust until they team up for a job, which goes off without a hitch. Inevitably their prickly relationship begins to thaw somewhat, and the two become attracted to each other as they plan out the massive Y2K bank scam that is the movie's climax (complete with sequel-ready ending).

Entrapment plays somewhat like a 1970s caper movie revamped for the gadget-happy high-tech '90s. The plot takes a few too many laboured twists and turns, and the chemistry between the two leads is nearly non-existent, though both carry on gamely in their parts. On the other hand, there is some genuine suspense in many scenes as they go about their business, dripping with whiz-bang burglary devices. Zeta-Jones, of course, is drop-dead gorgeous, and Connery is as reliable as always in his role. The fairly flat editing and direction tends to drag the film down somewhat, but fans of caper movies, high-tech thrillers and the two leads should find plenty to like in this film. --Jerry Renshaw, Amazon.com

3.0 out of 5 stars Charming Connery - mediocre Zeta-Jones, 17 Nov 2000
By A Customer
Connery uses the chance to play the clever guy who is always in control whereas Zeta-Jones fails to be believable as worlds greatest thief. The movie utilizes the Y2K-hysteria in a smart way and its fun to watch both do their "work". Nevertheless plot-holes are a plenty and most supporting characters remain undeveloped. But if you concentrate on Connery the movie is quite fun to watch and sure worth the money...

4.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, 4 Aug 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Entrapment [VHS] [1999] (VHS Tape)
Ok, so the burglary scene at the Palace was one for the boys. I mean CZJ in a leather catsuit - obvious or what? But for me, the best bit is the little dance between the pulses on the way to the computer (you really have to watch this film to understand what I'm saying!). 12 women at a bachelor(ette) party watched this and we all wished SC would teach us to dance - that scene was just sooo sexy!

Fantastic casting, great locations, wonderful music, and an excellent story. Will Paton and Ving Rhames are always worth watching - both are a bit underutilised here, but the film doesn't suffer as a result.

Unfairly compared to the Brosnan/Russo "Thomas Crown Affair" (which was a pretty naff remake), "Entrapment" more than stands up well on its own.
