Out of Sight (1998)
6/10
I expected more from this movie.

Perhaps I'm one of the few people who thinks so, but if you ask me this movie is a little bit overrated. Don't get me wrong, I did like most of the movie, but it isn't as good as I expected it to be. The movie started very promising but than it lost most of my attention until the last 20 minutes or so.

I liked the idea behind the gentleman - bank robber who doesn't need a gun or a fast car to rob a bank. Clooney did an excellent job portraying this thief and I loved to see him play this role. I even liked Jennifer Lopez' role in this movie, even though she wasn't really exceptional if you ask me. She was too much the stereotypical female cop that has to prove she can do anything her male partners can, but than even better... ending up in bed and falling in love with the man she is supposed to throw in jail.

It's probably not easy to make an original movie with this concept, but I expected more from Soderbergh. I give this movie a 6/10.
