4.0 out of 5 stars A tongue-in-chic eliptical thriller Nov 20 2005
By Eclectic Guy - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was one of my favorite guilty-pleasure films of the early 70s. I've beeen waiting for decades for its release on VHS or DVD.
It's still fresh, stylish, funny, fast, clever, smart and, most of all, seamless in its ingeniously circular plot. With a hot-colored 70s backdrop. it has surprisingly naturalistic performances given the winking nature of the plot. And it captures the thrills of the thriller genre as well as any of the "real" ones from this era.
It's all in fun, especially the embedded musical-within-the-movie, also called "The Crook."
After the first viewing, you'll find yourself going back to try to find how the movie comes back on itself. Good luck!

3.0 out of 5 stars Good movie, kind of old style acting, but intelligent Nov 19 2012
By Kafishna - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
I am not a big movie buff, but this type of movies have something in common--they do not focus on the acting excellence, rather the story itself stands out independent of the acting. From this stand point, I should have given the movie 4 stars. But, I am giving three simply because it had few scenes that are too simplistic to follow in today's movies. Also, it deserves three stars to have the sequence of background story to appear too suddenly and create confusion. Anyway, it seems that few other directors of that era tried to use crime/theft to show a theme about the vindication of justice, or at least a hope for it. The ending is beautifully done and honestly, you will leave with a mystery. That last scene's poetic appeal actually completes the movie. You have to watch it fully to get it. However, you won't miss much if you skip it either.

Classic great after 40 years. This heist movie was well ahead of its time. The plotting and ideas are really good even compared to today's standards
