Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Gene SiskelThe Getaway is a pretty good remake of a pretty good action thriller.
Orlando Sentinel - 8/10 by Jay 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 Times - 7/10 by Caryn 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 Times - 7/10 by Kenneth 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-Dispatch - 6/10 by Harper BarnesA little too exactly like the original but with (fewer) memorable performances.
Entertainment Weekly - 5/10 by Owen GleibermanThe movie is a true throwaway: By the end, it seems to have disposed of itself.
Austin Chronicle - 5/10 by Marc 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 Globe - 5/10 by Jay 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-Times - 3/10 by Roger EbertA particularly nasty and mean-spirited action picture, with the dramatic depth of an arcade game.
Miami Herald - 3/10 by Rene 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.
