Clooney and Lopez’s naturally electric chemistry is supercharged by the fact that the film never slips into sentimentality, always keeping their will-they-won’t-they amour at a tantalizing distance until the decisive moment.

One of the strongest aspects of this film is the atmosphere and tone Soderbergh along with his cinematographer Elliot Davis creates.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 5, 2023

Out of Sight might be one of the best under-the-radar titles of the late 1990s - a teasing showcase for what most of its participants would unleash in the decade to come.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 27, 2023

George Clooney finally hits his movie stride in the entertaining and well-conceived Out of Sight.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 20, 2023

It’s smart, slick and classy.

| Dec 15, 2022

Compared to previous Leonard adaptations, Out of Sight doesn't offer anything radically new, but it revealed Soderbergh--after a string of box office disappointments--in full command of his craft.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 9, 2022

You can see it at the end of a rough day and come out refreshed; it’s like driving a new air-conditioned car on a muggy day.

| Original Score: A | Sep 2, 2022

Out of Sight was a critical success, but never quite caught on completely with audiences. Hopefully, that will change, as it deserves to be considered a classic.

| Original Score: A | Jul 6, 2022

Those seeking a superb adaptation of an Elmore Leonard novel should watch Get Shorty; those who opt instead for Out of Sight will catch an occasionally meandering yarn elevated by a handful of choice scenes and an exemplary roster of supporting players.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 3, 2022

The film is a lark that develops an emotional undertow.

| Jun 30, 2022

Out of Sight still holds up as one of the best films of 1998...

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jun 28, 2022

A great, good-looking, old fashioned Hollywood entertainment in a gloriously film-like 4K upgrade from Kino Lorber Studio Classics. .

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 28, 2022

Scott Frank adapts Elmore Leonard’s novel and Soderbergh matches the Leonard sensibility with a style and rhythm that practically swings.

| Jun 25, 2022

This wasn't as sexy as I remembered but it's fine. Definitely a bit too long and some of the secondary characters were too cartoonish for me but it's a fun watch.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 21, 2022

It's a tad overlong, which I think could have been addressed in editing. Having a sexy cast definitely helped though.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 21, 2022

One of the best adaptations of an Elmore Leonard novel...

| Jan 23, 2021

The complex crime caper at the heart of the tale (based on an Elmore Leonard novel) takes a rightful back seat to the potent sizzle of stars George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 1, 2020

Soderbergh transcends the pulpy genre through trusting in the great performances that Leonard's meaty characterisations allow and with his own sleek and clever direction.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 16, 2019

By turns bleak, funny, touching, sexy and poignant, with bursts of violence that rise like sudden geysers from a still pool, Out of Sight is chock-full of dead-on performances.

| Aug 4, 2013

Its effortless cool and flawless ensemble make it the best translation of an Elmore Leonard book yet.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 4, 2013
