Editorial Review: Product Description: A husband and wife crime team are on the run from the law and from a crime boss they doubled crossed. Genre: Feature Film-Action/Adventure Rating: UN Release Date: 5-MAR-2002 Media Type: DVD Amazon.com: "This is going to be the last big score, I promise." Famous last words--uttered by crack thief Doc McCoy to his wife--that set forth a whirlpool of deception and violence in Roger Donaldson's 1994 remake of The Getaway. Bailed out of a Mexican jail by shady businessman Jack Benyon (James Woods) in order to hit an Arizona dog track for him, Doc (Alec Baldwin) and Carol (Kim Basinger) flee for south of the border when the robbery goes wrong, with the million-dollar loot in tow. Following close behind are Benyon's men and Doc's double-crossing partner Rudy (Michael Madsen). The updated version shares not only the original film's plot, but also the added twist of having husband and wife Baldwin and Basinger step into the roles of the first real-life couple to make the film, Steve McQueen and Ali McGraw. This time, however, the woman's role has been given a tougher '90s edge, with Basinger pulling almost as many punches and firing as many shots as Baldwin, compared to McGraw, who followed McQueen around in wide-eyed, silent terror. The Getaway maintains the same deliberate, neo-noir pace that made the first film taut, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere in the wide-open, desolate Southwestern landscapes. The scorching sun and heat only add to the strain, making it virtually impossible for anyone to find a dark corner or alleyway to hide in. The car chases and shoot-out finale are charged, though a secondary plot line, between Rudy and the woman he kidnaps and seduces (Jennifer Tilly), comes across as unnecessarily and incongruously brutal. --Natasha Senjanovic Average Rating:
 Rating:  - kim bassingerkim bassinger is my all thime fav even more than sharon stone my second allstar cast 5 star movie Rating: - GREAT MOVIE!!!!!! People who write bad things about this movie didn't really watch it. I don't think this is a 1 star movie & the people who gave it 1 star wouldn't know a good movie, if it bit them from behind......... Rating:  - Sanitised Version of the RemakeDon't buy this! The packaging on the box claims this is ' unrated' - IT ISN'T! ALL the sex scenes are missing - how the studio involved can get away with the lie on the packaging is a mystery to me, but they have! Worthless sanitised US version, NOT the print that was released in Europe. AVOID!! Rating:  - "You Should Have Married a Dentist."Early in this 1994 remake of the 1972 movie "The Getaway" Alec Baldwin (Doc McCoy) tells Kim Bassinger (Carol McCoy) that is she isn't happy with being the wife of a robber that she should have married a dentist. But she didn't and she adapts quite nicely to being a gun moll. She is as good a shot as her husband. Of course this remake based on Jim Thompson's novel invites comparison with the 1972 Steve McQueen version. Alec Baldwin is certainly no Steve McQueen so he is just a different ...

This is when Kim was very good looking and the scene of her with her clothes off was worth the price of the DVD. I own this movie and must have watched it about 5 times or more and I never get tired of it. I gave it 4 stars cause I think they should have shown more shots of Jennifer naked. In my opinion this is the one that should be on HD...not the original ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
