Switchback Reviews

Honestly, I had no idea what to expect from this flick but since there was a decent cast, I thought I might as well give it a try. Eventually, I thought it was not bad at all. Indeed, it is a rather forgotten and unknown thriller but it's actually too bad since it was actually quite entertaining. Indeed, this flick was rather well made and I thought that the tension was very well built up. Furthermore, all the actors involved (Dennis Quaid, Danny Glover, Jared Leto, R. Lee Ermey, William Fichtner) delivered some solid performances. Of course, since we are dealing with a thriller and since it is inherent to the genre, there were some improbable and annoying twist(s) but, somehow, it didn't bother me that much this time. Afterwards, I have discovered that this movie was the directing debut of Jeb Stuart whose name might not sound familiar but it is actually the guy who wrote ‘Die Hard’, one of the best action movies ever made and, in this movie, there were also very nice scenes as well so it figures. To conclude, even though it is nothing groundbreaking whatsoever, it is actually an entertaining thriller and I think is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
