I picked this up from the bargain bin at the local discount store. It was not bad. Zeta-Jones and Connery are both talented thespians, but honestly, the first hour or so of this flick kind of bogs down. It eventually picks up. Also honestly, my wife enjoyed this one more than I did.
The special effects are pretty cool. The scenery is also quite nice. The acting is so good that it makes up for a script that, had it been better, would have made this one a slam dunk blockbuster.
We both enjoyed it, but I don't think I would have paid a full ticket price.
This is a heist, action and romance plot; much along the lines of The Thomas Crowne Affair. Like the two Thomas Crowne films, it includes some interesting, even if predictable plot twists.
If you run across this in the bargain bin, or if it's available via Amazon or Netflix, it's probably worth a watch. Not really good, but not really bad either.
6/10
