Movie Reviews

New York Times - 8/10 by Vincent CanbyThough Mr. Van Damme's collaborators have become more upscale and mainstream, Nowhere to Run remains your basic exercise in kick-him-in-the-groin, stab-him-with-a-pitchfork cinema politics.
The Spectator - 8/10 by Vanessa LettsThe plot is a succession of flimsy excuses for dressing Van Damme up and stripping him down again.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleNowhere to Run is about as believable as Bigfoot, but the most soulful of action heroes holds the screen with his beefy presence and — yes, fans — there is the obligatory bare-butt shot.
Variety - 6/10 by Variety StaffA relentlessly corny and shamelessly derivative vehicle.
Chicago Tribune - 5/10 by Dave KehrThe inconsistencies of Nowhere to Run make it finally unsatisfying, but the film leaves little doubt that Robert Harmon is a major talent, though one still waiting for a project equal to his abilities.
The Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Duane ByrgeLittle more than schmaltz and pitchfork-handed fisticuffs.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 5/10 by Chris HicksThe best aspect of Nowhere to Run is some inventive camera work from director Robert Harmon. Too bad he didn't have a better script to work with.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Richard HarringtonA shameless, uneventful rehash of the classic Western "Shane," "Nowhere to Run" miscasts Jean-Claude Van Damme in the old Alan Ladd role -- an outlaw outsider gradually drawn into both unexpected familial warmth and predictably violent conflict with a greedy land baron...While it boasts better supporting actors and technical credits than other Van Damme projects, the film nonetheless founders, a victim of its own lugubrious pace and misguided efforts at turning the bulging Belgian into a romantic lead.
ReelViews - 5/10 by James BerardinelliIn trying to do too much, Nowhere to Run succeeds at too little. Action fans will be disappointed by the amount of talk and the lack of fights. Drama lovers (few of whom will even bother with this movie in the first place) will have a hard time swallowing plot's artificiality. In the final analysis, despite not being a terminal bore, Nowhere to Run doesn't go anywhere worth following.
Austin Chronicle - 5/10 by Louis BlackPreviously responsible for The Hitcher, a disturbingly cold-blooded exercise but still a powerful cinematic vehicle, Harmon still doesn't show enough humanity to be considered anything more than a stylish director. But he is a damned stylish one, who keeps the film interesting and the action sequences effective. If you don't expect much (and the developer vs. land owner plot is ridiculous) you may be surprised at what's here.
