If you loved The Thomas Crown Affair, try Basic
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by John McTiernan, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Thomas Crown Affair, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Basic is
Panama. Torrential rain, a poncho. Six shredded soldiers, missing. The drill sergeant, too. Two survivors offer conflicting stories, but a former Ranger arrives to sift fact from jungle rot. McTiernan's return to form never quite materialized.
