Reviews for No Way Out
Kevin Costner displays some charisma, for once, in a twisty, stylish espionage thriller.
03/30/09
No Way Out is an effective updating and revamping of the 1948 film noir classic The Big Clock.
03/30/09
Top CriticA cleverly plotted thriller with impeccable performances. Costner is spot on as the man who finds it hard to play by others' rules, even if it may cost him his head.
03/30/09
It's the kind of intricately plotted suspense film with juicy secondary parts (Will Patton, George Dzundza, Iman, Howard Duff) that used to be churned out in the 1940s.
03/30/09
...primarily comes off as a fast-moving and increasingly compelling thriller...
03/19/08
A very convincing nightmare, and if Hackman gives too rounded a performance to approach the omniscient evil of Laughton's original, Patton assumes the mantle as Brice's henchman, while Costner confirms his arrival as a star.
01/26/06
Smart and steamy Beltway thriller.

Filme tenso, com bom ritmo e boas atuações. A revelação final não faz muita diferença no contexto geral – ao contrário, abre margem para alguns buracos no roteiro.
07/25/03
A stylish political thriller animated by its incisive portrait of secrecy, lying and power in Washington, D.C.
07/19/03
It's so effective, in fact, that when it's all over, you might want to sit through the beginning again just to see if the end is justified by the means. I suspect that it is.
