Never get tired of watching this movie. Pierce Brosnan is excellent as a rich art lover.
Video and Audio are excellent quality. No bonus discs with it, just the one Blu-Ray disc.
There aren't even any special features on the main disc, which was a disappointment. Hence the 3 stars.
If there was something extra with the movie, it would have been 5 stars.

I have been a huge fan of the original Thomas Crown Affair since I first saw it while in the military in 1969..... and bought this "re-make" because I heard so many good things about it. I must say that honestly there are good points in BOTH films. I never quite bought the fact that the original Crown had McQueen's character robbing a bank.... so stealing the "Monet" made much more sense to me. I also thought the story was improved upon in the new version and I was more satisfied by the challenge Bronsnan's character found in Russo's bluntness. On the other hand, the sumptuous music score by Michel LeGrand in the early film was superior to the weak, lackluster and frangmented score that Bill Conti created for the new one. I also think I preferred the sensuous and sexy elegance of the fire between McQueen and Dunaway to the overtly sweaty lust that Brosnan and Russo desparately share. HOWEVER.... I must say I did enjoy BOTH films and find each beautiful and entertaining in their own ways.
(...) The ART of the earlier version is a unique and compelling one and makes that film so fascinating to watch in widescreen!

good bargain
2 for the price of one, the original and the remake, both good caper movies. The 1968 version with McQueen and Dunaway is a classic. Read more

Don't let the pretty face fool you...
This movie is a witty and entertaining caper/romance. Lively plot twists and smart writing make this one of my personal favourite movies from the past decade. Read more

Russo At Her Best!
I won't go into the plot of this movie, most buyers will already know it anyway. The DVD transfer is superb. Read more

Light hearted, fun entertainment.
Stylish and sexy. If you really concentrate, at about 1/2 way through the movie, you should be able to pretty much predict the ending.
I have never seen the original though.

ABSOLUTELY SUPERB!
This is a movie of surprise and surprise again. Every time you think you have it figured out, you are fooled by a beautiful twist right until the last scene of the movie. Read more

Great chemistry and plotting
I saw this movie when it first came out in 1999. Knowing it was a remake, I didn't expect much. However, the presence of Rene Russo, Pierce Brosnan and Denis Leary were enough to... Read more
