Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times The Getaway is a particularly nasty and mean-spirited action picture, with the dramatic depth of an arcade game. Rated: 1/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a mostly engrossing thriller... Rated: 3/4 Feb 2, 2022 Full Review Jonah Koslofsky The Spool [A] rancid waste of time. May 11, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Well-paced at the start, approaching commonplace heist scenarios with just enough uncertainty and freshness to create tension-filled unpredictability. Rated: 5/10 Sep 13, 2020 Full Review Michael Dequina TheMovieReport.com Rated: 3/5 Dec 26, 2006 Full Review Chuck O'Leary Fantastica Daily A scene for scene remake that's still great fun. Odds are you won't be moved or enlightened, but you'll never be bored. Rated: 4/5 Oct 8, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Jonas C I thought it was very entertaining and some parts were quite funny (dark humor funny). All in all, it was fun to watch amd suspenseful Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/01/25 Full Review Old S The best part of the movie is Jennifer Tilly. She's always great. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Jelisije J A movie that doesn't truly know what it wants to be. With so many moving parts with so many unnecessary characters that you get an entertaining but disjointed hell of a mess of a film. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/16/25 Full Review thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é ruim, o elenco é bom, mas ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, com tudo isso, eu não recomendo esse filme. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Carlos T Filme: A FUGA Assistido: nov. 2024 Elenco: @kim.basinger @alecbaldwininsta @michaelmadsenofficial @jennifertilly @realjameswoods Modelo: #gamgsters #romance Duração: 1h 55m Ano: 1994 Minha opinião: Temos aqui a belíssima Kim Basinger no auge de sua beleza. Um filme com o roteiro conhecido, que assaltam e depois fogem e sofre perseguição. Porem ness fuga acontece de tudo, até descobrir que a mulher para liberta-lo teve um relacionamento, isto abalou o casal, mas ele o eliminou. Até que um dos traidores da quadrilha Rudy (Madsen), que Doc (Alec) imaginou ter eliminado e descobrir que esta vivo, e agora o persegue e sua Carol (Kim). Oque vale mais aqui é poder rever a Kim e Alec quando era magro. Um filme mediano para época e para hoje devagar. Atuações medianas. Roteiro e enredo já conhecido, mas sem aquele tchan. Vale apena assistir? Por nostalgia. Nota: 6 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Lucas A Idk, I enjoyed it…I appreciate the effort they put into it unlike modern movies that CGI everything. Better than the kings speech (or something). Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/29/24 Full Review Read all reviews
