Summary: yeah, right
Review: Minuses, an old fart like Connery has a chance with a young, beautiful woman. Pluses, interesting twist at the end, Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Unbelievably bad
Review: You'd think that Sean Connery could pick and choose, and that he'd choose better than this. Put simply, it's the most boring, uninteresting film I've seen in a long time. A very long time.

Avoid this at any cost!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sean, Sean, You can do a WHOLE lot better
Review: I am personally considering suing twentieth century fox so they can give me my 2 hours back for watching that. 2 reasons this movie even got one star: 1-Cathrine Zeta Jones slinking through those lasers 2-There wasn't an option for 0 stars. As much as I respect Connery's ability to command a powerful role and performance, even he fluttered through this wasate of time. I am sure that the screen writer is unemployed unless the WB channel or UPN needs a miniseries. It just seemed like it was never going to end.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: good, but not my kind of movie
Review: I had never been so confused about a movie before in my life before I saw this one. You keep on wondering who is on who's side and when. And the thieves are the good guys. And...well, basically, this is not my kind of movie. ciao.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 1/2 A STAR ACTUALLY
Review: I'm normally a leniant guy when it comes to films. I enjoy Arnold Schwarzenneggar films and can sit through Superman films but Entrapment bored me to death. If my bike wasn't chained to my friend's I would have left. I recommend this film to insomniacs only. Use the money you would spend on this to chuck at a walll, it would be a better use!

SERIOUSLY THE WORST FILM OF THE DECADE!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: a rather boring movie
Review: This movie tries to squeeze mileage out of Connery's charm, Zeta-Jones' sexiness. However neither of them could do much to overcome the plot's clunkiness. The heist job in the middle of the movie lacks action and suspense (the Zeta-Jones moves have been shown too much earlier - even in the movie trailer, yielding no new "insight" to her "talents".) The "entrapment" makes no sense whatever given the ending. A movie for Connery or Zeta-Jones fans only.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: What where they thinking?
Review: This has to be one of the most idiotic, pointless, poorly written pieces of junk I have seen this year. (And there has been a LOT of big films I have seen this year.) The plot is nonsensical. The movie makes absolutely sense. I hope the actors (who are all pretty top notch) got a LOT of money for this dog. I only I hadn't wasted two hours of my life with movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sean Fires Once Again.
Review: This is one of the best movies i have seen in a long time. Sean Connery is great as always and if you don't think of him as Bond he does an excellent job in this movie. Catherine Z.J. also plays a great part. Together they make the movie great viewing. Right from the start the movie has you thinking and just when you think you have the plot sorted there comes a twist and you find yourself re-thinking the whole thing. This makes it a great movie for the fact that you can't possibly pick the ending which in itself is a fantastic twist that is sure to surprise many.

One of the greatest titles of "99" and one that all action/suspense and indeed Connery fans should have in their collection. Great viewing for all.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: We Always Do Well what We Like Best !
Review: I know: many viewers resented the apparent lack of physical chemistry between the characters played by Connery and Zeta-Jones. Most of them had vivid memories of Sean Connery playing the always charismatic 007, and Catherine Zeta-Jones exchanging sparks with Antonio Banderas in The Mask of Zorro. But is chemistry between a man and a woman just, physical, sensual, and sexual ? I find the movie entertaining, as it shows 2 people enjoying doing what they like best - no, I am not saying you should do the same thing ! - but as it happens in life, people perform so much better when they really like what they do. The chemistry is between Zeta-Jones youth, outgoing passion for life and Connery's less evident, more inward quest for adventure which is backed up by his wisdom and longtime experience. As they go about doing and accomplishing things together, the old man develops respect and acknowledges the younger woman's worth. Slowly he starts to like her and, despite his age, or, perhaps because of his age, he feels that, to a certain extent he cares for her. While, at the same time, she turns from intellectually admiring him to actually liking him on her side. Admittedly, it is an uneasy chemistry between Connery, the Scott gentleman and Catherine, the Welsh with long brown hair and eyes, but the film offers enjoyable action moments interspersed with occasionally good dialogue and exchanges between the two leads. Watch and enjoy the movie, as I did, for what it is not for what it is not !

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: When does the trap go off?
Review: another brain dead movie definitly molded after thomas crown affair. same plot same idea some concept. and nearly as bad. it has a little more action than crown affair but it lacks any real substance, which is a shame because it could have been great. the ending is weak and much of the film is very unbelievable. maybe they thought the actors would carry the film. i'd look elsewhere and give this one a miss.
