Out of Sight

Weekly Alibi

DIRECTED BY: Steven Soderbergh

REVIEWED: 06-29-98

George Clooney stars as a charming bank robber who busts out of prison in this adaptation of Elmore Leonard's best-selling novel. Motivations turn from robbery to romance, though, when our rogue hero kidnaps a beautiful federal agent (Jennifer Lopez). Ving Rhames, Don Cheadle and Albert Brooks are also along for the ride. Barry Sonnenfeld showed Hollywood how to do Leonard right with his 1995 version of Get Shorty. Now director Steven Soderbergh (sex, lies and videotape) gives up the indie auteur label to direct this comic caper.
