Critics' Reviews

The New York Times: Elvis Mitchell
Combine two stars of this wattage with a lot of techno-talk and elaborate heist plotting and you get plenty of good reasons to pay attention.Read Full Review »

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: Roger Ebert
The very embodiment of a star vehicle: a movie with a preposterous plot, exotic locations, absurd action sequences, and so much chemistry between attractive actors that we don't care.Read Full Review »

Washington Post: Desson Thomson
There's your intrigue. There's your romance. There's your x factor, by which I mean your willingness to give two appealing stars an incredible break throughout most of the major obstacles between them and a successful robbery.Read Full Review »

Salon.com: Stephanie Zacharek
It's too bad that the glamour wears off about halfway through Entrapment, when it stops being a movie about art heists and starts being one about stealing (ho-hum) money.Read Full Review »

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Doug Brod
This is one sexy and satisfyingly twisty dance.Read Full Review »

ReelViews: James Berardinelli
A script that, at its best, is inconsistent, and, at its worst, is laughably implausible and riddled with obvious flaws.Read Full Review »
