Entrapment - 1999

A funny action movie, it wasn't too bad. I liked it enough. Nothing really good, nothing great, no, but not too bad.
Gin (Catherine Zeta-Jones) works for an insurance company and goes undercover to catch MacDougal (Sean Connery), an art thief. She follows him, makes contact, works at a job with him, to steal a precious mask. After the 'probation' period is finished successfully, he accepts to help her in another job. She wants to steal eight million dollars from a bank by transferring money from other accounts into hers. This last job is full of complications, they almost get caught, but he makes her escape by staying behind. They set an appointment, but when he comes he's joined by the FBI. The great thief had been caught once and forced to help them catch her, who is truly the thief she always told him she was. Still, Mac manages to let her escape. However, when the cops are gone she comes back and offers him to work together again because, as she said earlier "alone sucks", and what can you argue with that?!?
Well, the love story was inevitable, authors simply can't resist it, but after all he's Sean Connery (although he kinda looks out of heart here, not entirely committed) so ok.
I liked when she was about to escape and she wanted him to go with her and he refused because he's old and she's got all her life ahead and something about him having nothing or whatever, and she cried at him "you've got me!". That was such a true woman-in-love plead, it touched me.
When there's love nothing else other than "I've got you, you've got me" matters.
I liked that scene. She did it well :-)
