“Geez, I canu0026#39;t get over all the sour comments about this film on this site. Long? Boring? These must be the feelings of MTV kids who canu0026#39;t focus on an image for longer than thirty seconds… For the rest of you looking for the perfect caper film, look no farther. Exotic locale… great cast… memorable score… Topkapi has it all. In my opinion, this is a far superior film to Jules Dassinu0026#39;s earlier Riffifi. Topkapi is glamorous, funny, exciting — but above all, fun.”
