synopsis :
an aging master art thief , his supplier , and a young , buxom security consultant are all not who they first appear to be ( or are they ? ) in this convoluted mess involving a risky heist during the millennium .
comments :
this movie was boring .
plain and simple .
entrapment should not have been boring .
it stars sean connery , who can still carry an action film despite his age , catherine zeta - jones , a likeable enough film presence , and ving rhames , ultra - cool star of pulp fiction and mission : impossible .
it takes full advantage of the y2k computer bug fears ( a current " hot topic " in the news ) in its storyline , which is set at the end of 1999 .
it has some genuinely well - staged action sequences .
so , what went wrong ?
plenty , unfortunately .
the major problem with entrapment is its script .
it has a been - there , done - that feel to it .
nothing seems particularly inventive or original , so the whole movie lacks suspense and drags
( it runs nearly two hours ) .
the screenwriters , for example , periodically use a countdown to the millennium as a means of transition between scenes ( i .
e .
"
4 days to the millennium " ) .
this device was used much more effectively in the overlooked sci - fi film strange days .
the characters are not who they appear to be at the beginning , which is neat at first but the device wears thin once the umpteenth " surprise " revelation is made . entrapment , in other words , relies too heavily on the audience not knowing what each character 's true motive is , resulting in a convoluted story which leaves many scratching their heads in confusion .
the star power here is quite strong , but the viewer ca n't help but feel the actors are wasted in this production .
sean connery is given such mind - numbing lines as
" never trust a naked woman . " ving rhames ' character seems like an afterthought ; he 's not developed at all .
the camera zooms in frequently and leeringly at catherine zeta - jones 's tight wardrobe .
this , in and of itself , is not bad , but , after a while ,
it has a juvenile feel to it .
at least the species movies hold no bones about the fact that they 're exploiting the female body .
entrapment does the same under the thin disguise of plot development
( sean connery supposedly falls in love with the girl while watching her , in tights , arc and pivot around laser beams ) .
the tagline for this movie reads " the trap is set .
" it sure is , on those who spent money to see this movie .
entrapment really is n't that bad ; it is watchable .
i would suggest , however , one waits until this is on cable or television to see it .

one of the 90s ' most unwelcome thriller trends returns from the grave : it 's the " _ _ _ from hell " movie !
starting in the early nineties , we were subjected to nearly every conceivable combination of relationships - from - hell !
there were boyfriends from hell , friendly neighborhood cops from hell , nannies from hell , and even secretaries from hell .
but hush has found an old standby that somehow was forgotten in the rush : the mother - in - law from hell ! ! ! ! !
the mother - in - law in question is martha , played by jessica lange .
she has been single - handedly running the family horse farm , kilronan .
her son , jackson ( johnathon schaech ) and his girlfriend , helen ( gwyneth paltrow ) , live in new york , and have no intention to move back down south to the rural kilronan .
but those intentions are about to change .
you see , martha lives by manipulation .
she has used it in years past to breed many championship horses .
now , she believes she can use it to breed herself a grandson .
though at first , helen finds martha charming , soon she is caught in the domineering martha 's web of deception .
it 's hard to understand why nobody ever wises up to martha ' schemes .
as written , most of the characters in the film must be very slow witted .
but then , the film even treats the audience like idiots .
it tries to get away with things ( like leaving a critical piece of evidence in a rather unlikely place ) without even batting an eye .
then again an audience which accepts characters as shallow as these is n't one that 's likely to question details .
jessica lange 's martha is the only semi - developed character in the film , and she applies her talents to redeem it as much as she can .
a character that could have been simply awful is merely groan - worthy .
gwyneth paltrow does n't have much to build upon , as helen 's only character trait seems to be " daughter - in - law " .
still , she fares better than johnathon schaech , whose character is so nonexistent , he 's inexplicably missing for much of the film .
still , there have been much worse
" _ _ _
_ from hell " films .
even with its paper - thin characters and ludicrous setups , hush manages to create a few thrills in a color - by - numbers fashion .
you know what 's coming , but occasionally the film will deliver a shock or two .
the old formulas are around for a reason , but that does n't mean they taste fresh .

synopsis : as a response to accusations of sexual prejudice in the armed forces
, a female naval intelligence officer is chosen to be a test case .
if she can survive the demanding s.
e.
a. l. training
, she will open the way for other women to be permitted to follow in her footsteps .
throw in a lot of political machinations , sabotage , brutality , water and sand
and you have an entertaining movie .
review :
the title of this movie turned me off at first .
i mean ' gi jane ? ' ? ? ? ? ?
the other titles which were considered were more promising - in pursuit of honor or a matter of honor would have been acceptable although navy cross or undisclosed are a little meaningless as far as i 'm concerned .
i went into this movie not liking the title and being one of those people who thinks that demi moore is absolutely ghastly as an actor .
to my surprise i really enjoyed the movie .
moore as lieutenant jordan o'neil is much more likeable than her washed out excuse for a gusty woman in a few good men .
the storyline is simple .
anne bancroft playing senator lillian dehaven is a ruthless , machiavellian politician with an agenda to push . using feminism to achieve political mileage
, she forces the military powers that be to backdown and permit a test case to enter the highly intensive navy
s.
e.
a. l. training .
jordan is selected due to the fact that she has it all - looks , brains and strength .
the training is gruelling and the indignity almost painful to watch .
nonetheless
, it 's one of those movies that makes me want to cheer out and encourage the hapless hero / heroine along in his / her endeavours .
sure , there are the stereotypical elements - inhuman treatment , sexual innuendo , resentful peers , pained boyfriend and sexist commanding officer . stepping away from the stereotypes though , viggo mortensen as master chief john urgayle tries to get away from being nothing more than a brutal screamer .
his character exercises a little more intellectual rigour than you would normally expect from such a character .
jordan 's boyfriend royce is also in the military .
although they both started at the same time , due to the fact that he has seen active service , he has advanced through the ranks much more quickly than she has .
royce ( what is his surname ?
do we care ? )
almost resents jordan 's attempts to advance herself , although he quickly settles down to being doe - eyed and supportive .
his character seems to have been thrown in so that we know that you do n't have to be a lesbian to want to be in the military .
in parts , this is a very silly movie , with gratuitous lines and scenes thrown in for effect which are so blatantly obvious or contrived that it 's hard not to cringe .
i still liked it though .
weaknesses in the script aside
, this is a film which captures a heroic and reckless mood .
as we watch jordan 's battle , it 's increasingly clear that it is a personal battle .
this is an individual 's fight for self - advancement .
we do n't have to have our teeth set on edge by didactic preachings , we do n't have to feel uncomfortable because we 're having ideology thrust down our throats .
it 's enough that we can sit back and hope that this one person gets what she wants and we can admire her tenacity and determination without coming out and saying whether we believe women should go into combat or not .
