Trivia:
The exterior of Ripley's mansion is that of an actual house. The interior was a set. The owners of the mansion liked the look so much that they asked for the plans of the set.

Revealing mistakes: After the shootout in Ripley's house, when Foley is talking to "the maid" in the bedroom, Kenneth, who has just been shot dead, clearly moves under the bedspread. Twice.

In this comedy crime caper, escaped prisoners plan robbery while federal agents are in pursuit. The plot is rather flimsy and the script is disjointed and uninvolving, relying on characters to sustain interest. The large cast of familiar faces is quite good but the actors are not given interesting things to do and say. Clooney and Lopez make an attractive couple and generate romantic sparks. Soderbergh tries to infuse the proceedings with a visual flair but his overactive camera is more annoying than innovative. Given the cast and the track record of previous films based on Leonard's novels and stories, this is a disappointment.
