About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a light, stylish romantic caper with witty back-and-forth and mild suspense, in the spirit of Roman Holiday or To Catch a Thief; Not for you if you need a serious, realistic heist.

Pros: charming romantic banter; playful museum heist; Parisian elegance | Cons: slow to start; silly premise; a bit overlong
