Film Review - Getaway
August 29, 2013
“Getaway” is a film fueled entirely on stupidity. And not the amusing kind of dumb that generates delightful junk food cinema, but the oppressive, lurching level of idiocy that takes roughly five minutes to sink into the system. Cruelly, there’s another 90 minutes of screen activity to digest in “Getaway,” and it doesn’t go down smoothly. Chock full of logic leaps, tuneless performances, and mind-numbingly repetitive car crashes, the feature is a complete waste of time, openly expressing contempt for audience intelligence. The engine roars, the edits flicker like a strobe light, and Hawke Holler is in full effect, but there’s no movie here to follow, just a series of ludicrous encounters meant to pass as some type of suspenseful endeavor.
