There was no juice, no pizazz, to the film, it's directed rather lazily, and the cat-n-mouse games between Brosnan's and Harrelson's characters didn't really engage me fully as a viewer. Similar in theme, "The Thomas Crown Affair" was a much more entertaining film than "After the Sunset".
I never really bought into the chemistry between the Brosnan and Hayek characters, and the female Jamaican cop character was a caricature as well.
Sure, there are some fun bits here and there (male bonding between thief and FBI agent), but they don't add up to a satisfying macro storyline.
I give it 2.5 stars or a grade of C+.
