Review of Getaway (2013) by Dominique J — 14 Dec 2013

What an utter waste of my time. One of the worst movies I have watched all year. Let me count the ways.

First of all, a series of flash cuts with automobiles does not make a movie. This might just be a long car commercial, I really don't know, but easily 70 % of the film is sloppily edited scenes of gas pedals and car exteriors at night with some vehicles crashing into one building or another. And that's ALL there is. I can't even explain how boring this movie is. I fast-forwarded many times, because I had seen it already.

Then there is the intelligence level of the flick. It has none. The annoying kid that tags along is just one big plot exposition/advancing machine who magically has all the skills and knowledge needed to further the story at all times.

Even the ending doesn't make any sense. I really hated this movie. Like I said, one of the worst I have seen in a long while. Ethan, you are better than this dude.
