- Reviewed in Canada on May 11, 2019Verified PurchaseLove this movie!! Dvd was in great condition no scratches.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 3, 2004Cinematic adaptations of books are almost always inferior because so much has to be cut out or changed to fit into a two-hour film. However, Elmore Leonard's books are tailor-made for movie adaptations because they are very visual and almost entirely dialogue and character-driven -- ideal for the screenplay format. Out of Sight is one of those rare movies that is actually better than the book.
Out of Sight is really a film about possibilities and the road not taken. What could have been. Jack Foley (George Clooney) is an ace bank robber who has one of the best introductions ever put on film as he quietly and politely robs a bank with nothing more than a smile and soothing voice. Clooney, with his movie star good looks and suave charm is perfectly cast as the smooth talking criminal. This may be his finest performance to date. His character meets Federal Marshall Karen Sisco (Jennifer Lopez) while breaking out of prison and the two hit it off immediately -- which is all the more impressive when one considers that their first meeting was spent in the cramped confines of a car trunk.
After lanquishing in obscurity for many years, Steven Soderbergh put himself back on the map with this smart, sexy and wonderfully stylish crime thriller that was ignored by audiences (due to lousy advertising and an even worse release date) but much beloved by critics. Fortunately, it has been re-discovered on video.
This movie just chugs along with such effortless ease and self-confidence that it is hard not to like. Besides Clooney and Lopez (turning in career-high performances), you've got a killer cast that features the likes of Steve Zahn (such an underrated character actor whose perfect here as a stoner criminal wannabe), Dennis Farina (Lopez's laid back dad who just wants to see her married to some rich guy or a cop), Albert Brooks (a bumbling white collar criminal type who is in way over his head), Don Cheadle (a tough guy-wannabe who is a classic schoolyard bully), and Ving Rhames (Clooney's tough, god-fearing partner in crime). It doesn't hurt that they have a super-smart script by Scott Frank to work with -- he perfectly understands Leonard's distinctive cadence.
And then there is Soderbergh's direction. His use of freeze frames as punctuation evokes the masters of the French New Wave and his use of colour always lets you know where the characters are in the story: warm colours for Florida, cold, metallic colours for Detroit.
Out of Sight also features a killer soundtrack masterminded by DJ extraordinaire, David Holmes. He mixes in his own brand of funky electronica with old school tunes from the likes of the Isley brothers and Willie Bobo that is infectious and perfectly suits the hip vibe of this film.
This Collector's Edition DVD is a must-have for fans of this movie if only for the relaxed audio commentary by Soderbergh and Frank who joke and talk at length about all sorts of aspects of the movie. This is a very informative and entertaining track.
Also included are some decent deleted scenes (including the car trunk scene between Clooney and Lopez in its entirety) and an excellent Making Of documentary.
Out of Sight is the ideal movie for people who like smart thrillers. It is well-acted, written and directed. It is also Soderbergh's best film after Traffic.
- Reviewed in Canada on March 28, 20021998 year was the best in years for the movies. Opening in December 1997, Titanic sailed into 1998 and wound up grossing a staggering 1.9 billion dollars worldwide. Hit movies abounded in all budget ranges. Comedies and animated features dominated, but high tech FX movies like Armageddon did well, as did innovative projects like The Truman Show and serious fare such as Saving Private Ryan. By year's end, even less mainstream fare like Shakespeare in Love and Elizabeth, both set in 17th Century England, were doing great.
A number of excellent movies underperformed in this crowded field. One of these was Out of Sight, easily the best crime caper flick of the year. There was nothing remotely close to it, and I wish it a long run at video stores.
It's based on a novel by one of my favorite writers, Elmore Leonard. Most of him crime novels revolve around the same simple ideas. One is that The Seven Deadly Sins - Greed, Lust, Gluttony, etc. - are very much alive. Another is that criminals are just people, too. Within this group, you still find the same range of personalities and intelligence found in the law abiding populace. Finally, Leonard never neglects the feminine allure of his female characters, but always makes them the equal of the men. Jackie Brown and Get Shorty were, until now, the best movies based on his books. Now the honor goes to Out of Sight.
George Clooney, of the major TV series ER, has starred in a couple of high profile movies, but this is his first great work. As professional bank robber Jack Foley, he pulls off a role that would be the downfall of a lesser actor. Jack is an extremely complex character. Only Leonard could create a protagonist who has pulled off two hundred robberies, but who is so averse to violence, he's never carried a gun. Here's a man who can pull off a love affair with a cop, while masterminding a jewelry heist and running from the law.
The object of his affection is a Federal Marshall named Karen Sisco, played by the remarkable Jennifer Lopez. In my review of My Best Friend's Wedding, I remarked that Cameron Diaz was destined for major stardom. This has since happened, and I now say the same thing about Miss Lopez. This isn't a psychic prediction. It's plan common sense. Just watch her ignite the screen in this picture.
The love affair begins in the trunk of a stolen car. This I believe to be a first in the romance department. From this meeting, we are taken back and forth in a wild pursuit of some very valuable uncut diamonds. As I hope you will see, these jewels give new meaning to the term hide in plain sight.
There are heroes, villains, and everyone in between. There are laughs and thrills and even a few tears. The dialog is crisp, classy and concise. The photography is perfect. There are no bad performances. Sex and violence are natural elements to this kind of story, but it's been ages since I seen a movie where they are not used gratuitously. Young directors should take note of Steven Soderbergh's clever techniques in these areas.
Simply put, I did not want this movie to end. For me, that's the ultimate compliment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good 4K transfer
Verified PurchaseOne of my favourite George Clooney movies, I was happy when Out of Sight was released on 4K.
The 4K disc works fine on my Australian Panasonic UB820 player and the image quality (color and clarity) certainly look superior to the Blu Ray copy I have.

5.0 out of 5 stars A classic movie with a great cast!
Verified PurchaseAuthor Elmore "Dutch" Leonard has written over forty novels in about as many years, most of which have been turned into feature films. To my knowledge, only four of his crime thrillers have been turned into successful movies: 52 Pick-up, Get Shorty, Jackie Brown, and Out of Sight. Whatever the magic is that Mr. Leonard puts into each of his books, few directors are able to capture it on screen. The same thing can be said for the novels by Stephen King. Only a handful of well-made movies come to mind. When the magic is captured, it's a truly amazing experience to behold in the arena of movie making. Out of Sight, starring George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez, is one of these rare experiences where everything comes together perfectly. The director, Steven Soderbergh, and screenplay writer, Scott Frank, were able to stay true to Leonard's words, as well as being able to transfer the heart and soul of the story to the big screen. Though it seems like few people actually saw this film when it was released theatrically, this is the movie that I think made major stars out of Clooney and Lopez, not to mention boosting the careers of Don Cheadle and Steve Zahn and Ving Rhames. Out of Sight, like Get Shorty and Jackie Brown, is now considered a classic to fans of the "crime caper." This is a movie that you want to have in your film library.
Out of Sight deals with Jack Foley (played by Clooney), the country's most successful bank robber. When Jack escapes from a Florida correction's facility, he accidentally runs into Federal Marshal, Karen Sisco (played by Lopez), who's at the prison to serve some papers. Unable to leave her behind, Jack and his pal, Buddy (played by Rhames), toss her into the trunk of her own car. Jack climbs in behind her, and Buddy quickly drives the car away from the prison and to safety. It's during the trunk ride that Jack and Karen develop feelings for each other, each realizing the impossibility of the situation. After the getaway, Jack refuses to forget Karen and what the experience meant to him. This eventually leads Karen to Detroit, where she hopes to arrest Jack before he can pull off one last score. Of course, both of them have to call a time out in order to see if there's any real chemistry in their relationship and, boy, is there! Unfortunately, Jack has to go ahead with the final robbery and Karen will have to arrest him, if she gets the opportunity. No one ever said love would be easy.
Though George Clooney has done a number of extremely successful films since Out of Sight, I still consider this movie to be his best. He captured the charm and wit of Jack Foley to a tee and made you believe that a bank robber and a Federal Marshal could actually fall in love with each other. Jennifer Lopez was also at her best in this movie. She shined with beauty and intellect and determination as a Federal Marshal who's prepared to shoot the man she loves, if it comes down to that. Don Cheadle brought the character of Maurice (aka Snoopy) alive in such a way that you couldn't help but like him, even though he's the bad guy. That's a tough job to do for any actor. I will say that Steve Zahn came close to stealing every scene that he was in as the pot-smoking Glenn Michaels, making you laugh out loud at his realistic, yet funny behavior. The cast was simply perfect all the way around, bringing special nuances to their characters that made them stand out. There were even cameo appearances by Michael Keaton, reviving his role as Ray Nicolette, the ATF agent from the movie, Jackie Brown, plus Samuel L. Jackson in a short, but powerful scene at the end that brings a hopeful smile to your face. This is also the movie that established a partnership between Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney. They would go on to make several more hit movies together after this one. Out of Sight is definitely the type of film that you can watch over and over again. It'll make you laugh, while keeping you on the edge of your seat for the final showdown. I only wish that Hollywood could make more movies like this. The extras include a thirty-minute behind the scenes documentary, plus twenty minutes of deleted scenes and a movie commentary with its director and screenwriter.

Das empathielose FilmlexikonReviewed in Germany on November 3, 2017
5.0 out of 5 stars "Ob ich mich an dich erinnere? Ich war auf der Suche nach dir..."
Verified PurchaseJack Foley ist wahrscheinlich der sympathischste, aber auch erfolgloseste Bankräuber im ganzen Land. Mit absolut zuverlässiger Regelmäßigkeit wird er geschnappt. So auch diesmal. Doch kurz nach Antritt seiner neuesten Haftstrafe gelingt ihm mithilfe seines Kumpels Buddy die Flucht. Wie das Schicksal es will, landet er gemeinsam mit der attraktiven Polizistin Karen Sisco im Kofferraum von Buddys Fluchtwagen. Nachdem sich ihre Wege trennen, hat es beide schwer erwischt. Sowohl Jack (auf der Flucht) als auch Karen (auf der Jagd) wollen herausfinden, ob zwischen ihnen mehr ist und ob sie unter anderen Umständen (er Bankräuber aus Leidenschaft, sie Cop aus voller Überzeugung) nicht sogar ein Paar hätten sein können...
"Ist dir klar, was du tust, Jack? Du interessierst dich für eine Frau, die für die Polizei arbeitet!"
Mit dem 36-jährigen George Clooney (109 Folgen Emergency Room, Batman & Robin 1997, Ocean's-Trilogie, Oscar-Gewinner 2006 für Syriana, Nominierungen für Michael Clayton, Up in the Air und The Descendants) als smarter Bankräuber Jack Foley ("Ich habe noch nie in meinem Leben eine Kanone benutzt! Du würdest dich wundern, was man alles bekommen kann, wenn man vernünftig fragt.")
und der 28-jährigen Jennifer Lopez (Anaconda, The Cell; eigentlich Sängerin: 7 Top Ten-Alben in Deutschland, außerdem 7 Top Ten-Hits, darunter Platz 1 mit On the Floor aus dem Jahr 2011; im selben Jahr wurde sie vom People Magazine zur schönsten Frau der Welt gekürt) als US-Marshal Karen Sisco ("Ich bin Bundesbeamtin, ich kann schon auf mich aufpassen!").
"Sie saß da und hat mich angesehen..." - "Er hat dir zugewunken?"
In weiteren Rollen Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction, Verlockende Falle, Mission: Impossible Teile 1 bis 5) als Buddy ("Buddy kümmert sich schon um ihn – und passt auf ihn auf. Er ist Jacks Gewissen, war er schon immer!"),
Steve Zahn (Gregs Tagebuch) als völlig verplanter Sidekick Glenn Michaels ("Brauchen wir ihn unbedingt?"),
Catherine Keener (Oscar-Nominierungen 2000 für Being John Malkovich und 2006 für Capote) als Jacks Ex-Frau Adele ("Sag Buddy, wenn Glenn Michaels wieder diese Sonnenbrille auf hat, trete ich drauf. Ohne sie ihm vorher abzunehmen!" - "Okay, Schatz, das richte ich ihm aus. Also lass dich nicht erschießen!"),
Albert Brooks (Oscar-Nominierung 1988 für Nachrichtenfieber) als Mithäftling und toupettragender Multimillionär ("Der Typ von der Wall Street?") Richard Ripley,
Don Cheadle (Iron Man Teile 2 und 3, Avengers: Age of Ultron, The First Avenger: Civil War, Oscar-Nominierung 2005 für Hotel Ruanda) als Mithäftling, Kreditkartenbetrüger und Killer Maurice "Mad Dog/ Snoopy" Miller ("Mit wem redet du, Mann?")
und – herrlich – Dennis Farina (Schnappt Shorty, Snatch - Schweine und Diamanten, starb leider 2013 im Alter von 69 Jahren) als Karens Dad.
"Herzlichen Glückwunsch!" - "Hast du da wieder ein Chanel-Kostüm reingezwängt?" - "Etwas viel Besseres. Los, mach's auf!" - "Oh mein Gott, die ist wunderschön!" - "Das ist eine..." - "Sig Sauer .380!" - "Genau." - "Ein super Geschenk! Danke, Dad!"
Und in kleinen Nebenrollen Michael Keaton (Beetlejuice, Batman 1989, Batmans Rückkehr 1992, Oscar-Nominierung 2015 für Birdman; spielte die Rolle hier schon ein Jahr vorher in Tarantinos Jackie Brown) als FBI-Agent ("Wyatt Earp ist hier!") Ray Nicolette ("Wir gingen rein, volles SWAT-Team, zwei Hubschrauber, die ganze Nummer. Linares dreht durch und schießt, da haben wir ihn umgelegt!"),
Luis Guzman (Carlito's Way, Der Knochenjäger, Die Entführung der U-Bahn Pelham 123) als Mitausbrecher Chino,
James Black (45 Folgen Anger Management) als Himey ("Das ist Himey, ein Schützling von mir. Nummer 32 in der Boxer-Rangliste!" - "Zweiunddreißig. Von wie vielen, zwanzig?"),
der 1,91 m große und 147 kg schwere Keith Loneker (19 Spiele als Offensive Lineman für die Los Angeles Rams, starb 2017 im Alter von 46 Jahren) als White Boy Bob,
Isaiah Washington (Romeo Must Die, Exit Wounds, 62 Folgen Grey's Anatomy, 59 Folgen The 100) als Maurice Schwager Kenneth ("Sie sind Boxer?" - "Ja, war ich. Aber dann hat sich meine Netzhaut zweimal abgelöst."),

Nancy Allen (RoboCop Teile 1 bis 3) als Ripleys Hausmädchen Midge
und Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury in den Marvel-Filmen, Mace Windu in Star Wars, Oscar-Nominierung 1995 für Pulp Fiction) als Hejira Henry.
"Runter mit der Sonnenbrille!" - "Ich sehe aber besser, wenn ich sie aufhabe!!" - "Wenn du sie nicht gleich abnimmst, fliegt sie die Überführung runter – und du gleich mit!"
Regie führte im Jahr 1998 (mit einem Budget von 48 Mio. $) der 34-jährige US-Amerikaner Steven Soderbergh (Ocean's-Trilogie, Oscar-Gewinner 2001 für Traffic - Macht des Kartells und Nominierung 2001 für Erin Brockovich). Das Drehbuch schrieb der 37-jährige Scott Frank (Das Wunderkind Tate, Minority Report, Wolverine: Weg des Kriegers, Logan: The Wolverine), nach einem Roman von Elmore Leonard (Schnappt Shorty, Jackie Brown, starb 2013 im Alter von 87 Jahren) aus dem Jahr 1996.
_Fazit: 123 Minuten charmante GAUNER-FARCE mit lauter schrägen Typen, zahlreichen Flashbacks und zwei wunderbaren Hauptdarstellern, bei denen die Funken nur so sprühen ("Möchten Sie einen Drink?"). Clooney als smarter, erfolgloser Ganove und Jennifer Lopez als ehrgeiziger US-Marshal, die sich meist für den richtigen Schachzug entscheidet, aber auch stets für den falschen Mann. Ich liebe diesen Film! Für mich 5/5 Note 1+
"Verstehst du eigentlich das Ganze?" - "Das muss ich nicht. Sowas passiert einfach."
Der Film wurde 1999 in den Kategorien Bestes adaptiertes Drehbuch (Scott Frank) und Bester Schnitt für den OSCAR nominiert.
Die Cinema schreibt: "MEHR ATMOSPHÄRE UND FOTOGENITÄT GAB ES SELTEN. Diese Lässigkeit ist für den glücklosen Räuber Jack und die Gendarmin Karen, was den Fischen das Wasser, und trotz weniger gemeinsamer Szenen trägt ihre ANZIEHUNGSKRAFT die gesamte Geschichte. Als wir Jack Foley kennenlernen, hat er gerade eine Bank überfallen und dazu nicht mehr als ein Lächeln und ein paar Lügen gebraucht. Man kauft das Clooney sofort ab, endlich hat sein Charme auch im Kino Charakter. Den Coup trotzdem verpatzt, tritt er danach seine Strafe an. Doch wie wir später in geschmeidig montierten Flashbacks erfahren, hat er zu oft auf Staatskosten hausiert und mit zu vielen derangierten Gesellen hantiert, um noch Geduld mit dem Gesetz zu haben. Der Ausbruch mit Hilfe seines besten Freundes Buddy gerät freilich zum ulkigen Desaster, und als Geisel landet US-Marshal Karen Sisco mit Jack im Kofferraum des Fluchtwagens. Zu beider Vergnügen. Der Interessenskonflikt einer Polizistin, die schwerlich ein Verhältnis mit einem flüchtigen Verbrecher beginnen kann, wird bis [zum Ende] ausgereizt. Das ist kein schnöder Film mehr, eher schon ein ZWEISTÜNDIGER FLIRT MIT MAGNETISCHEN AUGENBLICKEN. Out of Sight, kein Zweifel, ist ein Klassiker."
