synopsis
The story of a trio of fugitives--two bank robbers and the woman they both love. When the suave, irresistible Joe and his hypochondriac partner, Terry escape from prison, they cut a swathe from Oregon through California, robbing banks in order to finance their scheme for a new--and somewhat legitimate life--south of the border. In their wake, they leave a trail of chaos, disguises, wrecked automobiles--and an adoring public--while fleeing from the law. Their operation is running smoothly until they have an unexpected run-in with Kate, a housewife sick of her disappointing life, who is drawn to the thieves as a way to escape. Together Joe and Terry are the most successful bank robbers in U.S. history. To Kate, they also combine to make the perfect man. Things get more complicated when the police and media assume that Kate is their hostage and organize a massive manhunt to save her from the clutches of Joe and Terry.

Charm is a delicate thing. Bruce Willis, playing Joe, a lover-boy thief who breaks out of prison in a cement truck, has it. Billy Bob Thornton, playing Terry, a hypochondriac thief who escapes with Joe, has it. And Cate Blanchett, playing Kate Wheeler, the housewife who runs off with Joe and Terry and falls in love with both of them, has it in spades. This Australian actress, who can play anything from an English queen (Elizabeth) to white trash (The Gift), is an asset to any movie.So what's…
The Oscar and Felix of thieves escape from prison and pair up to rob banks up and down the West Coast. When an ''ordinary'' housewife joins their team, things get complicated. Story When Joe (Bruce Willis) and Terry (Billy Bob Thornton) break out of an Oregon prison they form the perfect bank robbing team. Joe is the smooth-talking man of action, while Terry is the thinker. (The duo only robs banks, however, in order to help fund their dream--running a legitimate hotel in sun-drenched Mexico.)… |
