Reviews for Entrapment
It's a superficial but entertaining caper that's a good, old-fashioned yarn.
Lives up to its title -- spend 100-plus minutes with this lacklustre thing and you definitely feel snookered.
You pack the explosives, the weaponry and the emergency 'chute, and save the Viagra for later.
A snare for all those lured to theaters by Connery's name, Zeta-Jones' beauty, and the false promise of an enjoyable caper film.
Another soulless, by-the-numbers attempt to resurrect a genre that made money for the studios in the past.
The legendary Sean Connery and the enthralling Catherine Zeta-Jones are less than the sum of their wonderful parts!
A wildly expensive movie full of computers, nonsense and violence, a film where wit, romance, elegance - everything - is sacrificed on the altar of giganticism, cliche and over-the-top action.
An adventure movie without two brain cells to rub together. But Connery's sad and reflective acting gives the movie depth and poignancy.
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.
It's often all too easy to see where the plot's headed; tiny holes and bigger ones open up under the story.
