Entrapment

Pros: Nice scenery, well-done action scenes
Cons: Silly ending, weak twists

Entrapment is a story about thieves who are trying to set a record for the biggest heist ever. Sean Connery plays the world-famous master thief and Catherine Zeta Jones is his greatest admirer. In an opening scene which reminds me of the opening of The...

Pros: Fun caper movie.
Cons: Turn off your brain while watching it.

For some reason, I've always been a sucker for caper movies. Maybe there's just something about the whole notion of a person or more often a group of people (IE: Ocean's 11) getting together to thumb their noses at a certain authority figure (usually a ...

Pros: A few wonderfully suspenseful scenes with two great actors.
Cons: The movie lacks any real depth.

Entrapment features Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Connery plays a retired master thief, but is he actually who he says he is? Catherine Zeta-Jones plays an insurance investigator who is under cover as a thief herself, and the question is the...

Pros: A few good scenes and Connery is the man.
Cons: It's just not really a good movie.

Catherine Zeta-Jones has a nice butt. I mention this only because it is the only recurring plot point in this silly and predictable heist movie. It's not terrible, and if you're a huge Connery fan, it's certainly worth seeing. I just wonder about the...

Pros: Zeta-Jones looks incredible, sound is fantastic
Cons: Unsuspenseful action, lukewarm chemistry between actors, banal plot

I’ve always enjoyed films where the viewer is asked to root for a bad guy, or a criminal. From To Catch a Thief to Smokey and the Bandit to Pulp Fiction, there’s a certain twisted joy to watching criminals elude the often hapless...

Pros: Connery and Zeta-Jones. The plot.
Cons: none.

Entrapment staring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery is one of the best movies I have viewed in a while. I am not really a action movie fan but my husband is. He picked this movie up the other day at the movie rental place and I thought oh...

Pros: Two beautiful people in exciting circumstances
Cons: none

In Connery's clutches is where I wouldn't mind being...at least in my fantasies. I don't care how old he gets.

I'm so sick of hearing about agism in this movie. I think what it comes down to is sexism...it's men who don't want to see the...

Pros: At least there is an ending.
Cons: Credits begin to roll.....

The Plot

Sean Connery plays Robert “Mac” MacDougal, a known thief of famously fine arts (he stole a few paintings, etc.). And Catherine Zeta-Jones plays Virginia “Gin” Baker, an undercover insurance agent who happens to dabble in theft...

Pros: Sean Connery
Cons: Story line too convoluted; unconvincing romance

My enjoyment of this film when I first saw it in a theater was, sadly, tempered by the fact that I had the misfortune to sit down behind a man who smelled like a brewery, and next to a man who laughed like Foghorn Leghorn whenever he saw Catherine...

Pros: Sean Connery, Catherine Zeta Jones, very nice equipment
Cons: messy plot..costume designers must be nuts

It was a rainy weekend, when I decided to rent this video, out of sheer boredom. Well..to tell you the truth, I like seeing Catherine and Sean in an action pact movie, both are extremely good looking for that matter. It had pretty good reviews, well,...

Pros: Good movie
Cons: None

That is my first review and I actually don't know what to put down to make it good. I still don't know, but I will try.

Sean Connery's acting skills are up there with the big boys, like Jack Nickelson and Anthony Hopkins. Sean Connery is a...

Pros: Surprise...Surprise...
Cons: Action...Action...

The reason to watch this movie is watching a new star teams up with an old star. An old star... Sean Connery... is, a pro, a worldwide well-known actor... a James Bonds legend. There is a reason for that - his charm and the way of developing his...

Pros: Fun menus and features on this DVD
Cons: For $34.99, it should contain even more Special Edition content

The announcement of an Entrapment Special Edition DVD came as somewhat of a surprise to me not only because the film hardly deserves the deluxe treatment, but also since I realized its release would mark the third time I’ve reviewed the cartoonish caper...

Pros: Fantastic script, great acting, excellent action
Cons: how come she wound up with Michael Douglas?

Gin’s plan involves entrapment.

A Rembrandt painting worth $40 million is stolen, and there is no trace of how the crime occurred.

Unfortunately, an insurance company chose to write the risk, and is now out a great sum of money. A...

Pros: Connery, Zeta-Jones, smart action
Cons: Connery and Zeta-Jones need to be less physical, overly twisty ending

There's kind of a depressing trend going on in Hollywood these days. It consists of pairing under thirty to barely twenty actress with senior citizen or nearly there actors. I've never had a huge problem with it, I mean Harrison Ford can still look okay...
