OUT OF SIGHT (1998) ****

Steven Soderbergh adaptation of the Elmore Leonard novel starring George Clooney as bank robber Jack Foley and Jennifer Lopez as Karen Sisco, the federal marshall assigned to bring him down, after he briefly kidnaps her during his escape. Don Cheadle, in a rare turn as a very bad guy, and Ving Rhames as Clooney's partner-in-crime were both memorable. And an unrecognizable Albert Brooks, as the millionaire they're all plotting to rip-off, was just great. Look for BB favorite Dennis Farina as Karen's dad.

My favorite film of 1998. Highly recommended.
