Terrible. A substitute for sleep medication that's so self-indulgent and plodding, it drove four people out of my screening midway through.

I like movies that don't settle into a groove, especially if the groove is already well worn. But the different kinds of movies that make up Bandits are pretty worn, too.

Levinson must think he's on safe ground morally by keeping Bandits bloodless, as if the absence of carnage somehow makes kidnapping and armed robbery wholesome.

A hybrid crime-comedy that unsuccessfully tries to blend classic screwball comedy (the Preston Sturges brand), romantic triangles (Jules et Jim, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid), and character-driven crimers (a la Bonnie and Clyde).

Tries hard to be a quirky comedy -- God, does it try.

Thornton and Willis save the day with their performances.

It's just about impossible not to fall for the ingratiating trio, especially Thornton's Terry.

Adults will get this movie, but kids won't.

Bandits' most intriguing plot line, the three-way love story, merely hints at the complexity of a two-man/one-woman relationship and never moves past the initial stages of cuteness and adolescent eroticism.

The movie has a one-take feel about it, containing vast stretches where nothing much happens. The cinematography looks amateurish, often badly composed and poorly lit.

There's good on-screen chemistry, good acting, and an incredibly well written and clever ending.

What started as cute becomes cloying and bloated.
