Leave your thoughts about The Getaway.
| Chicago TribuneGene SiskelThe Getaway is a pretty good remake of a pretty good action thriller. |
| Orlando SentinelJay BoyarPutting up with weeks - or even months - of such media-fed psychobabble is a big price to pay for a couple of hours of defiantly unwholesome entertainment. The Getaway might just be worth it, though. |
| The New York TimesCaryn JamesTheir appeal as a couple of gorgeous outlaws is the main reason to see this sleek, entertaining remake of Sam Peckinpah's 1972 action film. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranA perfectly respectable thriller that mostly manages to be as crisp and efficient as the crimes it depicts, this Roger Donaldson-directed Getaway compares favorably with the Sam Peckinpah original. |
| St. Louis Post-DispatchHarper BarnesA little too exactly like the original but with (fewer) memorable performances. |
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThe movie is a true throwaway: By the end, it seems to have disposed of itself. |
| Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovThis remake of the 1972 Peckinpah gem lacks the Ali McGraw/Steve McQueen heart and soul of the original, opting instead for the vacuous and thoroughly forgettable anti-chemistry of Baldwin and Basinger. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrSpouses Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger -- the latest flavors of the month to tie the knot -- slum their way through a glam-noirish extended video. Amid director Roger Donaldson's pseudo-atmospherics and the ersatz Thompson fare hacked up by screenwriters Walter Hill and Amy Holden Jones, they shoot guns, plan heists, talk tough and make love in silhouette. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA particularly nasty and mean-spirited action picture, with the dramatic depth of an arcade game. |
| Miami HeraldRene RodriguezAn utterly pointless remake of Sam Peckinpah's hair-raising road movie. Updated and dumbed down, this anemic variation on the bloodier 1972 original is primarily an opportunity for those vast legions of Baldwin-Basinger voyeurs. You know who you are. |
