Movie Info
After a long career playing good guys, Sean Connery gets to have some fun playing a crook for a change in the romantic crime thriller Entrapment -- and he even gets to break the law with the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones. When a priceless Rembrandt painting is stolen from a New York skyscraper in a daring and technically sophisticated robbery, ace insurance investigator Virginia "Gin" Baker (Catherine Zeta-Jones) begins looking into the matter and is soon convinced it's the work of master art

It's a superficial but entertaining caper that's a good, old-fashioned yarn.
Top CriticLives up to its title -- spend 100-plus minutes with this lacklustre thing and you definitely feel snookered.
Connery and Zeta-Jones not only look great together, they work well together, too.
A movie with a preposterous plot, exotic locations, absurd action sequences, and so much chemistry between attractive actors that we don't care.
Heist film with reliable plot. Teens OK.
Gets by well enough on style and star chemistry and the basic allure of watching a tightly-planned caper unfold.
Connery and Zeta-Jones make an intriguing couple, though the minor characters in this film tend to be as familiar as sunlight.
The movie's plot, intricate as it is, is secondary to the chemistry between the two stars.
Connery e Zeta-Jones, com suas presenças fortes, prendem nossa atenção. O problema só começa quando, em função do fraquíssimo terceiro ato, passamos a nos atentar para as fragilidades do roteiro.
A certain sunny sloppiness almost redeems Jon Amiel's throwback caper flick
It plays more like a big-budget episode of Remington Steele or Hart to Hart.
The stars have zero chemistry and the movie is none too thrilling.

I'm usually on for insane heist films but the below average non sensical lackluster Entrapment is a huge mess in all of the wrong ways. Firstly, the muzzled plot destroys any chance of chemistry between Connery and Zeta Jones which should have been the main priority as opposed to slickness and style, but unfortunately it doesn't grow to have that either. The characters go entirely undeveloped because of the cliched script and although it has a few inspired action sequences the result is something dark, ludicrious, boring and unexpectedly dull.
