Thoughts

Continuing the 90s nights for as long as Gladiators is airing meant scouring for a good film we’ve not watched already… which is harder than it sounds as we’ve done a lot of good 90s movies. This one was highly reviewed and has two amazing main stars, so seemed to fit the bill perfectly.

I feel like I’m definitely missing something, because George and Jennifer are great and Steven Soderbergh is a director I can get on board with… but even though there was a bank robbery and a prison breakout in the first twenty minutes, it was SO boring!
