[Directed] with cool efficiency.

Desson Thomson Washington Post (Top Critic)

You pack the explosives, the weaponry and the emergency 'chute, and save the Viagra for later.

Peter Rainer New York Magazine (Top Critic)

Connery and Zeta-Jones not only look great together, they work well together, too.

Michael Wilmington Chicago Tribune (Top Critic)

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.

Jeff Strickler Minneapolis Star Tribune (Top Critic)

It's a superficial but entertaining caper that's a good, old-fashioned yarn.

The kind of slick, sleek entertainment that shows audiences a good time mostly because of an elaborately tricky plot.

Bob Fenster Arizona Republic (Top Critic)

The movie deflates early and sags from there!

Jonathan Foreman New York Post (Top Critic)

Another soulless, by-the-numbers attempt to resurrect a genre that made money for the studios in the past.

Lives up to its title -- spend 100-plus minutes with this lacklustre thing and you definitely feel snookered.

Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times (Top Critic)

The legendary Sean Connery and the enthralling Catherine Zeta-Jones are less than the sum of their wonderful parts!

Heist film with reliable plot. Teens OK.

Gets by well enough on style and star chemistry and the basic allure of watching a tightly-planned caper unfold.

Connery e Zeta-Jones, com suas presencas fortes, prendem nossa atencao. O problema so comeca quando, em funcao do fraquissimo terceiro ato, passamos a nos atentar para as fragilidades do roteiro.

A certain sunny sloppiness almost redeems Jon Amiel's throwback caper flick

It plays more like a big-budget episode of Remington Steele or Hart to Hart.

The stars have zero chemistry and the movie is none too thrilling.

Folks, he's literally old enough to be her grandfather.

If you think Catherine Zeta-Jones is pretty, you will like this movie quite a bit. Forgettable otherwise.

She's not who she appears to be. He's not who he appears to be. The people sitting in the row in front of you aren't who they appear to be, either. It's that kind of movie.

In the end, Entrapment's cleverly convoluted plot is its least confusing aspect.

It is strangely paced (especially in the beginning), always confusing to follow, and extremely awkward as a romance.

Jose Arroyo Sight and Sound

Aspires to be nothing more than a bit of glamorous nonsense, but although it has done all right by the glamour, it has perhaps done too well by the nonsense.

...the stars are trapped in a series of nonsensical shenanigans and whiz-bang hardware wars.

Go, have a good time, and then just forget about it.

Connery and Zeta-Jones's combined charisma keeps Entrapment watchable. What it doesn't, however, is make this action adventure terribly exciting.
