Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Lives up to its title -- spend 100-plus minutes with this lacklustre thing and you definitely feel snookered.
A creaky star vehicle if there ever was one!
The legendary Sean Connery and the enthralling Catherine Zeta-Jones are less than the sum of their wonderful parts!
Entrapment simply reminds us again how far Hollywood is from the true legacies of its greatest genre directors.
