Margaret Hinxman Daily Telegraph (UK) 06/08/2020
In any guise, George C. Scott is worth watching, though his performance here seems haunted by the same tedious resignation that atrophies the script. Go to Full Review

2/4
The movie forgets what kinds of characters it's developed and gives us an ending we can't accept. Go to Full Review
Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies 05/15/2024
4/5
A rock-solid crime genre flick and yet another terrific vehicle for George C. Scott. It tells a wily story that’s propelled by good performances and a cool Euro-American style. Go to Full Review

Russ G Oct 21 Well photographed with a couple of good driving and chase scenes but otherwise empty. Could have used a good deal more exposition. I can't quite fathom what make Scott take the part except as an excuse to spend some filming time on the Iberian Peninsula. See more Laurie S @Karlwinters Feb 28 Scott has a job to drive a backward thug to freedom. I wanted the idiot to get iced but unfortunately it didn't happen. But at long last a film score that's very decent instead of the repetitious and monotonous background drumming noises from a lot of films. This is a good watch. See more j f @LiberteBurrows 09/24/2023 Could have benefitted from 5-10 more minutes for plot development. And I could have done without hearing "uncle" so much. Almost a really good movie. See more 09/19/2015 I wanted to like this film, having kind of a throwback style of story about old-timer George C. Scott as a former getaway driver being brought out of retirement to pull one last job with some young punks. I've always liked the archetypal "old-timer" story, whether it's Humphrey Bogart as an aging gangster in "High Sierra" or whether it's Lee Marvin as an aging cowpoke in "Monte Walsh." What I think I liked about those films and others like them is that the aging characters were now people who the times have passed by. This film, however, is a forward straightforward caper film with double crosses and populated with uninteresting characters. John Huston was the original director on this film, but her reportedly clashed with Scott and subsequently quit. I can't help but think that Huston's vision for the film would have been much better. See more 08/31/2015 Scott is good, but Musante is not. the star is the Supercharged BMW See more 08/29/2015 another driver pic like 'drive' or 'the get-away' See more Read all reviews
