Starring Sean Connery, Catherine Zeta Jones. Released to DVD on November 23, 1999.

The premise of Entrapment-a series of high risk art thefts-has been seen in other movies, mostly those featuring Bruce Willis. However, the talent of this film's two true stars, Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones' ass, took this film from being your run-of-the-mill action flick to a rather entertaining way to spend two hours of time. Like Steve McQueen's (and Pierce Brosnan's) character in The Thomas Crown Affair, MacDougal (Connery) is a bored multi-millionaire who steals incredibly valuable and well-guarded works of art to keep himself from going stir-crazy. Virginia (Zeta-Jones) is the insurance investigator who also dabbles in a bit of thievery herself. Together they work to heist eight billion dollars. As always, Connery shines in the role Michael Douglas plays off-screen: that of a wealthy, older man wining and dining Zeta-Jones. Zeta-Jones, for her part, contributes several stunts-namely those involving bending-that can only be described as nifty.
