DVD Reviews of How to Steal a Million

DVD Review: Funny and entertaining
Summary: 3 Stars

So refreshingly light and fun. This film features Peter O'Toole, at his most charming, and Audrey Hepburn.

Hepburn plays Nicole, the daughter of Charles Bonnet, a rich art collector and forger, that is about to get into a lot of trouble. He loaned his priced possession, a Cellini "Venus" (forged) to a museum, and the officials at the museum are sending in experts to determine the authenticity of the sculpture for insurance purposes. The problem? They will realize it is a fake and they stand to lose everything. So, her daughter teams up with a "cat burglar" to help steal the sculpture back. But O'Toole is really an inspector.

Hilarity ensues when they go to steal the "Venus" so Nicole can save her father. This is a funny and charming movie. It is quite simple and very enjoyable. And Hugh Griffith as Charles Bonnet is very funny.

DVD Review: Peter Steels It
Summary: 4 Stars

This chic 60s caper is colorful and fun if a little over-long. Audrey seems to be a little old to be playing this part, but she's game and delightful. But the whole show is O'Toole. He's sensational here, very smooth and cool but also laugh-out-loud funny. I wish he had done more of this kind of light-hearted caper in his prime. He could easily have stepped in for the aging Cary Grant as the reigning master of this type of star-turn.

DVD Review: 3 stars out of 4
Summary: 4 Stars

The Bottom Line:

A lightweight caper film buoyed by the likability, attractiveness, and chemistry of the leads, How to Steal a Million is a fun little movie that is hardly a classic but nonetheless represents an enjoyable two hours in front of a television screen.

DVD Review: LOVE it!
Summary: 5 Stars

LOVE this movie! Audrey Hepburn is adorable in it. Peter O'Toole is a great "thief"

DVD Review: how to steal a million in comedic fashion
Summary: 4 Stars

The movie "How to steal a million" with Audrey Hepburn and Peter O'Toole is a laugh fest from beginning to end with fun twists and impossible mayhem. It was thoroughly enjoyable.

Description of How to Steal a Million

The daughter (Audrey Hepburn) of a wealthy Frenchman (Hugh Griffith) who creates counterfeit art learns her father is in danger of being exposed as a crook. She decides to steal the family's forged Cellini sculpture from a museum before experts can examine it and enlists a society burglar (Peter O'Toole) to help her.
Audrey Hepburn was never more sleek and glamorous than in this delightful romantic caper costarring Peter O'Toole and directed by William Wyler. She's the chic daughter of a renowned art collector and covert forger (the always eccentric Hugh Griffith) who's deposited his best work, a famous statue, in a Paris museum. Trouble is, technology can now detect such forgery, so Hepburn plots to steal the statue with the help of O'Toole, an amateur thief and covert inspector. Of course, neither of them knows the whole truth about the other. They make an utterly charming couple, with O'Toole stealing the show in an uncharacteristically lighthearted turn. --Bill Desowitz
