After the Sunset
A jewel thief is tempted to come out of retirement in this pleasantly entertaining Caribbean-set caper. Pierce Brosnan plays suave crook Max Burdett, whose idyllic life in a Bahamian paradise — shared with partner-in-crime Lola (Salma Hayek) — is jeopardised when he sees the chance to steal a famed diamond. Burdett must also contend with his old nemesis, FBI agent Stanley Lloyd (Woody Harrelson), who doesn't believe Burdett can retire, and so a seemingly endless game of cat-and-mouse ensues. Rush Hour director Brett Ratner offers perhaps more than enough tasteless jokes about suntan-oil application and scenes of Hayek in skimpy swimwear, but, luckily, the cast's playfulness works within the predictable plot rather than against it.
