 | I thought I purchased a VHS, but was sent a DVD. It was a gift, I don't know if it has been viewed yet. I was excited that they offer classic movies and about how soon I could receive it. Thank you. |

| This movie is intelligent, sophisticated, funny, warm and about as ingenious and clever as you can get. It's longer than I like a movie to be, but I loved every minute of it. And what's more, the robbery makes sense (giving nothing away), it would work, it's a devilish surprise but all believable. I liked it better than Ocean's 11 (not the original, I want nothing to do with sinatra), Ocean's 12 and The Thomas Crown Affair (again not the original which I thought was just nothing). The 2nd Thomas Crown was impossible which spoiled it, and Ocean's 11 and 12 were too complicated and far-fetched (though I liked all these movies anyway). And the 3 principals were a sheer delight to watch and listen to. I thought it was a warm, intelligent, clever movie. |

| Don't know what "Tacoma" was talking about. The match-up of O'Toole and Hepburn is brilliant. I am so glad the movie finally came out on DVD. It's witty and romantic and funny. What woman wouldn't want to get "caught" by O'Toole. Met him when he was much much older and he is still as charming but seeing him in his prime is a delight. |

| This is a pleasant enough romantic comedy, and Audrey is as fine as ever. Watch it, if you do, for the comedy and the romance, because as a caper it's a dud. The museum guards are too stupid (and comically played) to present a real challenge to our heroes.
The movie especially suffers in comparison to the underrated Gambit (1966), another romantic comedy/caper released to cinemas just six months later; Gambit has all the cunning plans, twists, and above all the sense of danger and challenge that a caper film needs and which How to Steal a Million lacks. |

| O'Toole & Hepburn are a wonderful combination! The plot is extremely entertaining. Hugh Griffith plays the charming rascal of a father to a hilarious finish. All I can say is put your cares and problems on the shelf for two hours and enjoy this movie. It's one of my absolute favorite romantic comedies right up there with "Roman Holiday", "That Touch of Mink" & "You've Got Mail". They don't make them like this anymore!!!!! |
