A Perfect Getaway Ratings & Reviews
Chris
December 29, 2024
I don't mind when writers try to twist a plot around and try to surprise people with an unusual ending, then fail, but the key word there is TRY! The writer of this script should have his SAG card revoked. I will not give the ending away...but the twist in this movie completely ignored any of the details of the story making the first 93 minutes completely pointless, It is almost like he ran into a deadline to have it done and wrote the last page on his way to the studio.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
The intimacy of A Perfect Getaway can be read as Twohy's response to his adventures in mega-budget moviemaking, as can its smartly self-reflexive references to the craft of storytelling itself.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Twohy lets his story's central guessing game play out with patient tautness.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
A big-reveal thriller with surprises that really do surprise -- and are worth waiting for through an audaciously long buildup.
Chicago Reader
Cliff Doerksen
Writer-director David Twohy (Pitch Black) serves up mechanical thrills culminating in a bogus twist ending
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
A Perfect Getaway is a little better -- well, a little stranger -- than most of the disposables this summer.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
This is a genre entry that knows exactly what it is and has a lot of fun being it. It pushes most of the right buttons, assumes its audience has a brain and doesn't telegraph its punches right from the very start.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
A surprisingly effective thriller, featuring good-to-great performances and a taut, interesting screenplay with enough twists and turns to keep the audience entertained for its scant running time.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Twohy serves up a hard-to-swallow second-act twist and an unconvincing back story, but the slightly overlong A Perfect Getaway recovers with a pulse-pounding climax.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
The result isn't deadly dull, but it does turn what should have been a most dangerous game into a basic scenery-chewing contest.
Los Angeles Times
Glenn Whipp
Twohy correctly banks on the fact that his audience will be too busy sifting through those aforementioned "red snappers" to care about the details.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
A gimmicky, tricked-out tale that is all too self-aware. But the film does keep you guessing and probably guessing wrong.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Viewers know the gotcha is coming not only because they've been groomed to expect a third-act left turn in movies like this, but because the film's characters won't stop talking about it.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
A Perfect Getaway is a clever, heart-pounding thriller, and a welcome return to form for the director.
Dallas Morning News
Cary Darling
David Twohy doesn't do much new and the twist is as obvious as a tornado in the Texas Panhandle. But that doesn't make it any less of an escapist joyride on a hot summer day.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
A Perfect Getaway has its imperfections, but for a thriller of its kind, it's a lively and slick summer escape.
Washington Post
John Anderson
As thrillers go, the film is more nerve-wracking than most, and far better acted -- the four principals are terrific, particularly Jovovich, who gives a really nuanced performance.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Just the thing for the summertime movie blahs: it's a genuinely satisfying cheap thrill.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
The entire third act is an exercise in manic, flashbacky histrionics -- but Zahn and Olyphant's mismatched machismo and the bizarre mystery at the heart of the story do score high marks for exceptional and thoroughly engrossing weirdness.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Scott Von Doviak
Doesn't want to be anything more than a ninety-minute thrill ride, and unlike most of the bloated blockbusters of late, it succeeds on its own terms.
