ENTRAPMENT 1999
A film review by Timothy Voon
Copyright 1999 Timothy Voon
3 out of 5 for a love affair between thieves
Cast: Sean Connery, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Ving Rhames, Will Patton. Screenplay: Ron Bass and William Broyles.
Producers: Sean Connery, Michael Hertzberg and Rhonda Tollefson. Director: Jon Amiel.
Trends of this movie state …
1. It’s all right to date women forty years your junior, as long as it looks good on screen. Don’t ask me how, but Sean Connery, with his undeniable lasting charm, gets away with a kiss from the lovely Catherine Zeta Jones and nobody squirmed!
2. The idea of stealing billions from the world exchange bank on top of the K.L. Twin Towers is a good idea, but I hear that the bank is actually imaginary. In fact, the world’s tallest building now stands mostly half empty thanks to the recent SE Asia recession.
3. A story about professional thieving is exciting, and there hasn’t been one of this calibre and quality for awhile. My personal favourite was a Sidney Sheldon mini series ‘If Tomorrow Never Comes.’ My only complaint is that towards the end, the ability of these professional thieves becomes too magical when they somehow start jumping trains mid-motion in heels and dress.
4. This movie will be remembered for some very sensual and sensational body movements from Zeta Jones, as she twists her firm, slim body through some tight motions when navigating a maze of laser beams. And WOW, what a body!
