TOMATOMETER
AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: While smarter than the average slasher film, A Perfect Getaway eventually devolves into a standard, predictable, excessively violent thriller.

A big-reveal thriller with surprises that really do surprise -- and are worth waiting for through an audaciously long buildup.

Writer-director David Twohy (Pitch Black) serves up mechanical thrills culminating in a bogus twist ending

A Perfect Getaway is a little better -- well, a little stranger -- than most of the disposables this summer.

David Twohy's taut, palm-sweating thriller has two things going for it: it keeps you guessing and it doesn't insult your intelligence.

There's always something to be said for a psycho-thriller that delivers interesting characters in a cool setting.

The film is not a total loss due to its interesting use of suspense and its tactic of placing suspicion on every character. While it's not one of the best thrillers out there, you could easily do worse.

Audience Reviews for A Perfect Getaway
Somewhere early something clicked on this one and i saw the reveal very early but i kept second guessing as the movie went along. A very solid cast makes this a good movie.

Run of the mill thriller with some good performances from the 4 main leads. The location is the real star of the movie but with a slow first half followed by a twist in the end which wasn?t much of a surprise. Steve Zhan is always a joy to watch and he doesn?t disappoint here and milla jovorich looks good but that?s all she got to do here.
It?s a perfect Friday beer and curry night in, that?s pretty much it.
