Description: Entrapment is a 1999 thriller film starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery. The story follows Virginia “Gin” Baker, an investigator for Waverly Insurance, and Robert “Mac” MacDougal, a seasoned international art thief. When a valuable Rembrandt painting is stolen in New York, Gin goes undercover to investigate Mac, the prime suspect. She pretends to be a professional thief and proposes a scheme to steal a priceless Chinese mask from Bedford Palace. Mac agrees but emphasizes his golden rule: “Never carry a gun.”
The duo travels to Scotland, where they plan the heist at Mac’s secluded castle hideout. Aaron Thibadeaux, Mac’s trusted ally, arrives with supplies for the mission. Unbeknownst to Gin, Mac overhears her secret conversation with her boss, Hector Cruz, revealing her true intentions. Despite Gin’s romantic advances, Mac remains cautious, uncertain of her loyalty.
After successfully stealing the mask, Mac accuses Gin of planning to betray him by selling the mask and turning him in. However, Gin convinces him that her insurance job is merely a cover and reveals an even larger plan: a $8 billion heist from the International Clearance Bank in Kuala Lumpur’s Petronas Towers. Meanwhile, Cruz and his team, guided by Thibadeaux, track Gin’s movements, confirming she is still on her mission to bring Mac to justice. The film is a thrilling game of deception, trust, and high-stakes heists.
