Two stars

Entrapment

(Fox)

This Jon Amiel To Catch a Thief wanna-be spends so much time counting backwards toward fizzled climaxes that it begins to seem like a mental disorder. Lost in a tortured screenplay that makes Mission Impossible seem a model of clarity is Sean Connery's avuncularly elegant performance as a legendary art thief and Catherine Zeta-Jones's anti-Grace Kelly insurance investigator: their relationship is summed up when her butt slithers under a laser beam and Connery grunts nostalgically.
