Out of Sight

Elmore Leonard is one of the best character writers in the business with most of his work reading like a screenplay just waiting to happen. OUT OF SIGHT is no exception and Steven Soderbergh does a bang up job of directing this Scott Frank adaptation. Mind you, with George Clooney in the lead you'd have one hell of time fucking it up.....then again....Jennifer Lopez happens to share that lead and thankfully that is not a problem here. Say what you will about J'lo.....she is consistant in her ability to entertain and I've yet to see her in a film where I wasn't. A cast of wonderful talent round out this ensemble including Dennis Farina, Ving Rhames, Don Cheadle and even a cameo from Samuel L. Jackson. With fine action and steamy sexuality OUT OF SIGHT is a can't miss proposition.
