Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle Director Robert Harmon brings a few fresh touches to the basic action movie style. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 11, 2023 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: D Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Variety Staff Variety A relentlessly corny and shamelessly derivative vehicle. Nov 2, 2008 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews The arms-length atmosphere is, at least, alleviated by Van Damme’s typically stirring work and the inclusion of a few action-packed interludes... Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 11, 2022 Full Review Vanessa Letts The Spectator The plot is a succession of flimsy excuses for dressing Van Damme up and stripping him down again. Jul 24, 2018 Full Review Malcolm Johnson Hartford Courant Van Damme's new slugfest runs along a familiar trail, going nowhere in particular. Jun 5, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são de ação fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, nem o Jean Claude Van Damme para salvar, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review Audience Member A patient, romantic film from the Van Damme canon, this one trades the flashy martial arts for big-hearted drama. Jean-Claude purists will not be disappointed! The film’s down-home, country conflict has gotten better with age, the central character relationships are sweet and tender, and there’s some solid action to boot! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review Fred K I thought it was a sweet story. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/24 Full Review William D Great movie lots of fun. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/23 Full Review Vicky H Not exciting and boring fight scenes. Well at least Van Damme is still younger and hot when this came out. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/19/23 Full Review Jack O Jean-Claude Van Damme has Nowhere to Run. Now that film really took my interest and I decide to give it a watch and then I think it was decent. Not good, not bad. It has some drama to it and then has action which you want to see from Van Damme. It does get boring and dull at parts and time but it does have some great action fight scenes like Van Damme escaped from the prison bus, the motorcycle chase and the end fight scene which is awesome. Two of them scenes, the motorcycle and the end fight which I think in the third act is awesome. This movie has some awesome fight scenes and it was a shame cause it was just your average action film. Kind of entertaining in parts but again I expect more from Nowhere to Run. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
