Great romance-crime-drama featuring two wonderful performances from Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo who share incredible chemistry in their cat-and-mouse play. The crime element is also well done, although how Crowne gets the painting into that small briefcase still confuses me. But seen this one several times over the years and it's entertaining every single time. **4.25/5**

**The Thomas Crown Affair disappointed even with a solid cast, crew, and concept.** I really wanted to like this movie. What could go wrong with Pierce Brosnan as the lead and John McTiernan at the helm of a sophisticated heist film? Sadly, it wasn’t what I had hoped. The Thomas Crown Affair was more of a romance movie with some art robbery mixed in. The film’s musical score reminded me of cheap elevator music that distracted much more than enhanced. The movie also threw some rather long, awkward sex scenes and nudity that were completely unnecessary. Those scenes are always unnecessary to me, but these were extra cringe. I expected much more from a film that regularly charts high on all-time heist movie lists.
