The plot was interesting because it brought together a love story with a criminal investigation.I had never seen this before. I wish there was more heisting in the movie but that is my own bias. It kept my attention, and it was amusing throughout.The effects were good.Even though there was not a lot of action the plot somehow kept me entertained. |

Great chemistry and charisma between the leads, a muddled and boring middle section, and a satisfying conclusion that is slick and smug in its execution. |

Very Slick and Smart! |

Pierce Brosnan puts in a superb performance as the billionaire looking for a little more excitement in his life. To alleviate his boredom he steals fine art. His latest snag is a rare Monet worth over $100 million. The crime is seemingly untraceable, leaving the police, headed by Detective Michael McCann (Denis Leary) with few clues and no leads that is until a flashy insurance investigator Catherine Banning (Rene Russo) decided to infiltrate his life and get back the Monet (her incentive is a percentage of its value). Thus begin the mind games which pervade the remainder of the movie.
I enjoyed the character of Thomas Crown and Brosnan fit the part like a glove, with his good looks and ever so cool persona. It reminded me a lot of James Bond (but with less action). Rene Russo adds a d... |
