***1/2 2.23.09 - After The Sunset... 2004... Director Brett RatnerI was looking for something to watch, to continue my library project and I pulled this film off of the wall. I had almost forgotten about it. The cast is great, Don Cheadle, Woody Harrelson, Pierce Brosnon and of course Salma Hayek.
The location is absolutely gorgeous, the Bahamas. And the story, not bad... a fun heist. Now this film is not as good as "Thomas Crown Affair," or any of the "Ocean's" movies, but it is a fun romp. The cinematography is amazing and so is Salma Hayek in a bikini.
One of the best parts of the DVD... the extras. You've got tons of stuff including bloopers but maybe one of the best "making of" documentaries on any DVD. It's not 5 or 10 minutes, it's a good 30 45 minutes and it starts at the very beginning and ends after the premier, so it's fun to watch although the director steals most of the scenes and could be flagged for overacting.
All in all if you want to drift off for a couple of hours and have a good time, check it out.
