ReviewsEntertainment Weekly - ...An impressive debut for Mann's street-corner existentialism..., Variety - ...A slick crime-drama with a well-developed sense of pathos running throughout. James Caan comes up with a particularly convincing portrait of the central figure..., The AV Club - Michael MannÆs THIEF is one of the most confident directorial debuts of its era, the product of an unprecedented amount of research and preparation., Total Film - ...THIEF remains one of the most accurate movies ever made about career criminals..., Newsweek - Brutal and precision-made, THIEF is a high-tech crime movie that closes in on its subject with such relentless purpose that it approaches abstraction.
Additional InformationAfter 11 years in prison, an ageing master safecracker (James Caan) decides to pull one more job before retiring to a quiet, peaceful life. However, the mob finds him much too valuable and refuses to let him retire, keeping him trapped in the life he so desperately wants to leave behind. An introspective look at a man re-evaluating the life he's lived, THIEF is a fascinating, intense film, based on the novel by Frank Hohimer.
