This isn't a great movie, but it is very enjoyable. Paul Newman and Linda Fiorentino are both great. It's a good caper flick.

This movie was worth watching. Even though it was a little slow at times, it was worth the wait. Good story, good characters, and funny, too.

Linda Fiorentino was fantastic. Could have done without Paul Newman though. The story is difficult to believe but the various situations surrounding the heist are interesting. Ms. Fiorentino was completely consistent and for me was the only reason I watched to the end. Of course, the ending was very unsatisfying since it isn't clear how the driver could has escaped with about 20 cop cars around.
