After the Sunset
After the Sunset is an unalloyed delight, bright and breezy escapist fare that's pure entertainment, filled with romance, adventure, humor, action, suspense, beautiful scenery and beautiful people.

But everyone involved seems to be treading tone down here, desperately hoping the audience won't regard it's all been done once.

The species of misdemeanour spring that Brosnan did rather better in his remake of The Thomas Crown Relationship; the pace here is geriatric.
