Review: Getaway (2013)

Sweet Selena playing the bad girl

This film was a very good fast-paced action thriller with excellent performances from both Ethan Hawke and Selena Gomez.

Hawke, a former racing car driver, receives a phone call learning his wife has been kidnapped and will be harmed unless he drives a car according to instructions for some criminals. The car is fitted with camera’s so they can watch his every move. Along the way Gomez tries to Car jack him and ends up along for the ride.

The driving sequences in this film were literally breathtaking with hats off to the stunt team involved in the picture. In a lot of ways I was reminded of The Driver with Ryan O’Neal, but that’s hardly a bad thing!
