- Critics' reviews
-
-
"The dialogue is often painfully hip-cute, but the actors manage to be funny anyway."
-
"Yates paces the fast-moving thrills with precision."
-
"Laid-back caper movie, adapted by William Goldman from a Donald Westlake novel and directed with the lightest of touches by the perennially underrated Peter Yates."
