Out of Sight

overall it's a good movie,I love it you just don't have to expect much

Out Of Sight is a 1998 Thriller Crime starring George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. Directed by Stephen Soderbergh the film is about a charismatic thief named Jack (George Clooney)who kidnaps a fernal named Karen Sisqo(Jennifer Lopez) after breaking out of jail and starts to fall for her. But will he go back to jail again? Also starring Ving Rhames,Steve Hahn,Don Cheadle and with a surprise cameo from Batman himself Micheal Keaton as an FBI agent; overall I enjoyed it for what it was. If your a fan of any of the actors than check it out. Danny DeVito serves as an Executive producer.

Jack Foley (George Clooney) is a lifelong smooth operator bank robber. He escapes from prison with the help of Buddy Bragg (Ving Rhames) and grabs US Marshall Karen Sisco (Jennifer Lopez) on the way out. She talks her way out by convincing weak minded Glenn Michaels (Steve Zahn). Foley is after some diamonds, and Sisco is put on their case. Only she might be falling for him. Director Steven Soderbergh has narrow the focus. This is simply one hot sexual innuendo after another between Clooney and Lopez. It does get slow and J Lo does get too cool at times. But it's a slow cool burn that heats up the whole movie. Clooney is a perfect sly fox. The game play between the two leads absolutely sings.

Disappointing formula drama. Expected more...got much much less.

After hearing how brilliant this film was, i finally ran out and rented it to find out what I was missing. I found myself waiting impatiently for its seething brilliance to seep out...didn't happen. Jennifer Lopez is beautiful, I'm not disputing that but perhaps she should stick to Loreal commercials. It seems she's the same character in every film she plays (with the exception of Selena, in which she delivered a worthy performance). I could say the same for George Clooney but what really annoyed me was the slow pace in which this film moved...best screenplay? You gotta be kidding me! How a film like Todd Solondz' Happiness can slip by the Academy's eyes and a film like this can be nominated for an Oscar just proves how political the Academy Awards are. On a scale of 1 to 10, i'll be generous and give it a 6 and a half.

11 January 2009. This Steven Soderbergh directed, George Clooney, Jennifer Lopez acted crime thriller is a cut above average by avoiding the over the top crime spree and keeping the movie relatively simple and straight forward. This is both a comedy, a drama, and a crime thriller with not that much action. The action is more or less reduced to brief, more realistic sequences that don't last too long. The music score, especially with the romantic scenes is sweepingly captivating, the cynical repartee a gem, one-liners, zingers that keep the movie entertaining while also fusing into this movie a more heavy element of criminal toughness. The editing is abit confusing with the back and forth flashbacks and timeline too disjointed. Overall, this is an entertaining, intelligent movie. Eight out of Ten Stars.

This is definitely not the 'Pulp Fiction of 1998' as some reviewers suggest. Not at all. This is just your non-memorable, non-remarkable, average movie. It's neither the trivial story nor the two leading actors (Clooney and Lopez), but rather some of the refreshingly odd secondary characters that may warrant watching this movie on video/DVD.

Out of sight has an Ocean's 11 feel many years before its time (especially with that soundtrack). Clooney's a bankrobber and JLo is an agent. Their relationship is complicated.

This was a well put together movie about a bank robber and a federal marshal and the chemistry that inevitably develops between them . Clooney and Lopez are great. And a great supporting cast. Highly recommend

After watching a lot of movies,you get the feeling you have seen it all.Once in a while you get a movie that's imaginative.It takes a great director and script to mine out the best of all the cast.George Clooney and J-Lo are at their best here,and anyone who says they can't act needs to see this.This movie hooks you right from the beginning and doesn't let go
