Trivia:

Hans Zimmer was the only choice for the music composing. However, Zimmer was just finishing Hannibal (2001) and Pearl Harbor (2001) at the time in London, and he already committed himself to Black Hawk Down (2001), which was recorded in the US. Barry Levinson said that he would move the film for a later release, waiting for the German composer, since they are good friends since Rain Man (1988). Zimmer politely refused it.

Goofs:

Continuity: At the bar when Terry gets out of his seat the chair falls. A minute later the chair is back up again.

Quotes:

Terry:I am a fugitive from justice! I am a dangerous criminal!
Kate:Oh well that explains the hijacking!

Movie Connections:

Spoofs "America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back" (1988)

Soundtrack:

Twist in My Sobriety

Simply Excellent

BANDITS (2001) ***** Barry Levinson's 'Bandits' is an outlandish story of two prisoners who break out of restrictive quarters and take to the road for a change of pace. They rob banks to get their income, intertwine with a run-away housewife, and are, of course, chased by the law. From the very beginning the movie takes off with such exciting momentum one may wonder if it will keep its pace until the closing scene; yet it does. Terrific turns by Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, Cate Blanchett, and Troy Garrity make this the best film of its kind--where we root for the bad guys--since early cinema. Simply excellent.
