Review by TennArtLady (posted on 27-Sep-2007)

A real "sleeper" - I found this amazing film by accident on one of those nights when you've seen all the new titles so you cruise the aisles of the video store hoping to find something good you might have overlooked, and that's exactly what happend - I was NOT dissapointed! I had never heard of the title, but loved the cast and storyline, so decided to give it a try, and WOW, it has turned out to be one of the smartest movies on many levels, and made my top ten list of all-time favorite movies! Extremely clever beginning has you tricked into thinking you're witnessing another slick bank robbery flick,(spoiler here - skip the remainder of this paragraph if you don't want to know the main storyline ahead of time)... only to be blown away by the main story- Redford & Co. are running a class act security company and are only showing the bank how easily they can be robbed by Reford having just done so. They get the job of updating the bank's security system, and on the story goes. Soon after, you discover a back-plot revolving around incidents occuring during Redford's college days. Enter a truly sinister character, well-played by the always talented Ben Kingsley, and you have a real winner. If you get the chance, rent it - and if you see this in the $5 TO $10 bargain bin, as I did a few years ago at Walmart, BUY IT - it's worth the $10 or so to add to your collection, not only because it's worthy of watching over & over again, but it's definitely one you'll want to share with your friends. You don't have to be a computer geek to appreciate this really well-written drama-turned-action movie with a just the right blend of comedy and romance. The richness of the cast, tender moments and deep drama will keep you entertained with great stunts that will have you holding your breath on the edge of your seat til the film's end! LOVED IT!!!
