Editorial Review:
Sean Connery plays a master thief thought to be long retired, while Katherine Zeta-Jones is his foil, a hotshot insurance investigator assigned to his case. They both have a little something to hold over each other's heads, until it turns out that Zeta-Jones is a professional art thief herself and is playing on both sides of the fence. At first they eye each other with mutual distrust until they team up for a job, which goes off without a hitch. Inevitably their prickly relationship begins to thaw somewhat, and the two become attracted to each other as they plan out the massive Y2K bank scam that is the movie's climax (complete with sequel-ready ending). Entrapment plays somewhat like a '70s caper movie revamped for the gadget-happy high-tech '90s. The plot takes a few too many labored twists and turns, and the chemistry between the two leads is nearly nonexistent, though both carry on gamely in their parts. On the other hand, there is some genuine suspense in many scenes as they go about their business, dripping with whiz-bang burglary devices. Zeta-Jones, of course, is drop-dead gorgeous, and Connery is as reliable as always in his role. The fairly flat editing and direction tends to drag the film down somewhat, but fans of caper movies, high-tech thrillers, and the two leads should find plenty to like in this film. --Jerry Renshaw
Entrapment Reviews:
Great Movie. Bluray was a let down. Buy DVD instead. 
2009-11-23 - Buy DVD and save money. BluRay resolution is nothing to write about. Better off with a DVD.
Entrapment 
2009-09-12 - Had seen the movie previously and really liked it but couldn't remember the name. Any movie with Sir Mr. Connery in it is great.
TERRIBLE BLU RAY TRANSFER! 
2009-08-20 - I am only going to review the Blu Ray disc. The image quality is poor, most occasions it's blurred. Especially when the film starts I end up wondering why it gets blurred.
I had the same issue with Die Hard 1 and 2 and In the Line Of Fire. Why do I get the feeling the they just transferring the image from dvd to Blu Ray or using some type of Noise Reduction which actually worsens the picture quality,
Catherine is breath taking in this movie!!! 
2009-06-24 - AskMen say she is a classic beauty unmatched by anyone in Hollywood. I totally agree. This movie is sophiscated and cool. I like Sean and Catherine's chemistry. I cannot believe how beautiful and gorgeous she is in this movie. I love this movie!
Reminiscent of The Thomas Crown Affair 
2009-02-11 - Sir Sean ( the quintessential James Bond of our youth) emerges from his retirement home and pursues and is pursued by the exquisitely, beautiful Catherine Zeta-Jones who gives an admirable performance as the exquisitely, beautiful Catherine Zeta-Jones. Her acrobatic endeavors (or those of her stunt double?) are truly impressive. The mandatory special effects and chase scene are included.
There are more plot twists than Bush/Cheney explanations for our invasion of Iraq.
The pertinacious flaw is the disparity in years between the aging Connery and the relatively youthful Zeta-Jones.
A great movie to watch while sitting on the couch, kicking off your slippers, munching popcorn and preparing to be entertained.
