>The dialogue doesn't get much better in "Entrapment". She also says "Wow!" a lot, generally expressing herself with a teenager's vocabulary (and impetuosity), which seems to indicate a more intuitive, spontaneous thinking process than one might expect from a highly intelligent and methodical art thief. He, on the other hand, mutters and grunts his observations in as thick a Scottish brogue as he can muster. He's the organization man to her acrobat, explaining the basic ground rules of thievery, such as "Never trust a naked woman". This will, needless to say, lead to some awkwardness in their partnership, culminating in a tussle which ends with him backing out on the grounds that "My situation is just too complicated." (War injury? Forgot his Viagra? We can't be sure.) If you're looking for romantic tension, try "Roman Holiday". If you're looking for a convincing heist scene, "Revenge of the Pink Panther" does as good a job, with humor as a bonus. If you're looking for scenes of the Zeta-Jones butt gyrating in tight black leather pants, you can buy the DVD and just turn on the disc menu which shows it from every angle for as long as you want. Or try "Chicago", where she does some mean dancing, and proves she can even act. <

Gripping Cat-and-Mouse Thriller
This is a terrific latter day thriller that brings to mind the work of Hitchcock. The plot twists are clever yet plausible. The motives of the main characters and true identities are shadowy which adds to the intrigue of the film. The film looks terrific and the action and stuntwork are excellent. The film is anchored by two dynamic performances by Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones. At the time much was made of the age difference between the two(Connery was 67 and Zeta-Jones was 29) but the chemistry between the two makes it a non-factor. Connery, in probably his last film that required grueling physical exertion, shows that in the twilight of a storied career that he won't go quietly into the night. This was Zeta-Jones' second American film. In her first, "The Mask of Zorro", she was good but her role there did not have the heft of "Entrapment". Aside from her natural beauty that just explodes on screen she more than holds her own with Connery. There is a mystique to her character, an insurance investigator who is out to ensnare Connery's thief. Good supporting turns are also given by Will Patten as Zeta-Jones' co-worker and Ving Rhames as an associate of Connery's. If I recall the reviews at the time of the film's release it was generally dismissed as a slick thriller. I think those reviewers should revisit this film and discover it's merits.
