Screen Rant reviews A Perfect Getaway
A Perfect Getaway was written and directed by David Twohy, the gentleman who brought us the Vin Diesel vehicles Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick. Here he brings us a very different type of movie: The story of a newlywed couple on their honeymoon in Hawaii, trying to figure out if any of the couples around them are murderers.
Now I have a fairly strict “no spoiler” policy in my reviews, but there is no way to properly review this film without talking about the fact that there is a “twist” in the story. I won’t say what that twist is but there is one.

“Pleasant” isn’t usually a word used to praise horror films, but it describes quite a bit of A Perfect Getaway, which is really more of a suspense-thriller than an out-and-out shocker.

While driving to the starting point of a long hike to a beautiful, isolated beach, they stop to pick up a couple of hippie-ish hitchhikers—but while Cleo (Marley Shelton) seems friendly enough, her boyfriend Kale (Chris Hemsworth) has a menacing air about him, and Cliff and Cydney renege on the ride. »

I'm about to say some harsh things about A Perfect Getaway. I'm going to defecate on David Twohy's directing, Milla Jovovich's acting, David Twohy's screenplay, and some inexcusably bad special effects. And then I'm going to tell you that in spite of all that's wrong with the movie it's also very funny, surprisingly suspenseful, and damn entertaining anyway. It's an admittedly absurd third-act twist to find in a movie review, but hopefully you won't let it ruin the entire experience for you. Cliff (Steve Zahn) and Cydney (Jovovich) are in Hawaii for their honeymoon, and after a helicopter tour reveals a secluded beach paradise the couple decides to hike there for a night of camping. They meet two other couples on the journey... sketchy newlywed hitchhikers Kale (Chris Hemsworth) and Cleo (Marley Shelton) and outgoing braggarts Nick (Timothy Olyphant) and Gina (Kiele Sanchez). Hikers passing on the trail reveal that two people were murdered »
