after mulitiple flaws it somehow becomes interesting around the middle of the film.
It totally took me by surprise when that oen couple ended up being the killers... I SO didn't see that coming!
A decent suspense thriller set in the magnificient islands of Hawaii, keeps you guessing who is who. Kinda remind me of Surveillance in terms of twist. Milla has put on the pounds for this. Overall, it's a nice honeymoon in paradise or is it?
A lot better than I expected. Really entertaining. I loved the charachter Timothy Olyphant played. Hilarious!
this movie is way too much fun to avoid seeing in theatres... just a great little whodunit movie that I found predictable....and also pretty cheesy at times but didn't really care once it hit the third act... timothy olyphant is making a case to crac... (read more) this movie is way too much fun to avoid seeing in theatres... just a great little whodunit movie that I found predictable....and also pretty cheesy at times but didn't really care once it hit the third act... timothy olyphant is making a case to crack into my top 5 actors... he powers this one of the most intriguing, entertaining and likeable characters this summer... i think the movie will lose some steem when it hits dvd which is a shame cause its just a great movie from start to finish.... a great somewhat slowstart that picks up pace and gives a suitable finish .... "I'm a god damn american jedi" .... classic
Critic Reviews
The scenery is fabulous, the script less so, the final action sequences a headlong plunge into hokum and bathos.full review
A Perfect Getaway has its imperfections, but for a thriller of its kind, it's a lively and slick summer escape.full review
For all the characters' talk of second-act surprises and red herrings, the observant will have no trouble seeing writer/director David Twohey's breadcrumb trail of hints.full review
A Perfect Getaway is proof that a dumb idea can be brought to life, however briefly, by smart people, and writer-director David Twohy is nothing if not clever.full review
