Entrapment is a 1999 action-thriller starring Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones and directed by Jon Amiel.Zeta-Jones stars as Virginia "Gin" Baker, an investigator working for an insurance company. She's hot on the trail of renowned international art thief Robert "Mac" Macdougal (Connery) and attempts to trick him into thinking she is herself a thief, and that she wants to team up with him.Together, they embark on the biggest heist ever: stealing $8 billion from the International Clearance Bank, which happens to be housed in the then-tallest buildings in the world, the Petronas Twin Towers.It is generally most famous for the Laser Hallway sequence which Zeta-Jones navigates with a Spy Catsuit and She-Fu. | |

Strictly Professional Relationship | |
| Entrapment / int_1144041a | comment |
Strictly Professional Relationship: Mac emphasises to Gin that there can be nothing personal between thieves, and that they must concentrate on the job in hand, and nothing else. Later, Mac says to Gin that he was prepared for everything, except falling in love with Gin. Thibadeux suspects that they might be up to something, and comments on this, later referring to Gin as "Mac's girlfriend". | |

Bait-and-Switch: When Gin calls Hector from Scotland, Mac is seen listening in on Gin's call, showing that he knows what she is really up to. When she returns to the castle, there is a creepy scene in which Mac leaves signs directing Gin to the castle roof. He then says that he never comes on to the roof without dropping something off, leaving the audience to expect him to push Gin off. Instead, he drops a drinking glass to the ground, and says absolutely nothing about Gin's underhand doings. He brutally interrogates Gin about it just after they have completed the mask heist. | |

National Stereotypes: The reason it was banned in Malaysia. The film shows Gin and Mac's base of operations in some sort of rural slum that somehow has a brilliant view of the twin towers.

"Blackmail" Is Such an Ugly Word | |
| Entrapment / int_b09c818 | comment |
"Blackmail" Is Such an Ugly Word: Inverted. Mac gets evidence of Gin helping him, and subtly suggests that she get with the program. He's kind of right; "In criminal law, entrapment is a practice whereby a law enforcement agent induces a person to commit a criminal offense that the person would have otherwise been unlikely to commit." Mac was retired when the movie began, all the evidence years cold. The only way the police could arrest him was if they caught him in the act of committing another crime - so they sent Gin to sucker him into it. However, it's twisted in knots by the end; Gin actually is a thief, and Mac actually is entrapping her, as he's working with the FBI the whole time. | |

Destroy the Security Camera: Mac destroys a security camera, before taking Gin into a room filled with gas, so the security patrol will think they try to avoid the gas-filled room. | |

Slow Doors | |
| Entrapment / int_c4b910bf | comment |
Slow Doors: When Gin accidentally trips the vault's security system, a wall of gates closes rapidly around them, but the door blocking the actual exit moves incredibly slowly, long enough for them to prevent it from even closing with just a chair. | |

Writers Cannot Do Math | |
| Entrapment / int_da1c8191 | comment |
Writers Cannot Do Math: Gin needs ten extra seconds after midnight in order to use a computer program to steal billions of dollars from an international bank. After 11pm, the device she set up "steals" 1/10th of a second every minute until midnight, which will total 10 seconds by midnight. But that only equals 6 seconds, which is 4 shy of the required 10. | |

Gambit Pileup: Whew! The final scene, in which everyone's conflicting agendas come out; Initially, Gin appeared to be an FBI agent investigating Mac, who Mac blackmailed into helping him. Then she revealed she's really a thief, trying to get Mac's help with the biggest heist in history: eight billion dollars. Except it turns out that the FBI knew the whole time, but couldn't convict her of a crime she hadn't committed yet - but Mac made a deal with the FBI; immunity for his past crimes in exchange for capturing her. However, he turns on the FBI at the last second, and And the Adventure Continues as Gin is already planning a diamond heist... | |

After committing their heist on the 86th floor, and setting off the alarms, Mac and Gin try to escape in the elevator, having previously freeze-framed the camera to hide their presence.
