ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

Everything in Out of Sight is smart -- the dialogue, the characters, and the storyline. ...read the complete Out of Sight movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

The first film to build on the enormously influential "Pulp Fiction" instead of simply mimicking it. It has the games with time, the low-life dialogue, the absurd violent situations, but it also has its own texture. ...read the complete Out of Sight movie review at Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

In the middle of the summer movie season, when most films are designed with the intelligence of a seven year-old for viewers with the attention span of someone even younger, it's refreshing to find a picture like Out of Sight, which is not only smart, but ...read the complete Out of Sight movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

Steven Soderbergh's ``Out of Sight'' is a crime movie less interested in crime than in how people talk, flirt, lie and get themselves into trouble. ...read the complete Out of Sight movie review at Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)

A notorious bank robber busts out of prison with the help of a former inmate but kidnaps a female US Marshal on the escape route.

Chicago Reader (Jonathan Rosenbaum)

Out of Sight engaged me less and less, until by the end I no longer cared which of the characters lived or died. Not even the engaging Jennifer Lopez, George Clooney, Albert Brooks, Don Cheadle, and Ving Rhames or the talented secondary cast can survive...read the complete Out of Sight (1998) review at Chicago Reader (Jonathan Rosenbaum)
