Description:
Imagine being a hunter leading highly trained bloodhounds in pursuit of a killer...and the trail leads directly to you! Starring Academy-AwardÂ(r) winners Kevin Costner* and Gene Hackman,** No Way Out is 'a mesmerizing look at Washington power' (The Hollywood Reporter).Capturing a well-deserved four stars from critic Roger Ebert, this 'taut [and] stylish' (Newsweek) thriller is fast-paced and powerful'a perfect nailbiter' (Variety)! In a fit of rage, Secretary of Defense David Brice (Hackman) murders his mistress. To keep a lid on the scandal, Brice's loyal aide (Will Patton) creates the perfect cover-up: he 'invents' a more enticing killera Russian spyand then enlists naval commander Tom Farrell (Costner) to find him. But as achilling twist of fate would have it, Farrell also has a strong connection to the victim and now all the clues he's been hired to uncover are leading straight to him! In a desperate race against time, Farrell's search for the killer is not only a matter of national security, but also a matter of saving his own hide. *1990: Director and Picture, Dances with Wolves **1971:Actor, The French Connection; 1992: Supporting Actor, Unforgiven

Amazon.com:
This implausible, but effective 1987 film stars Kevin Costner (Bull Durham, Wyatt Earp) as a naval officer and CIA agent who may not be what he seems. This sexy thriller is an espionage mystery and an enigmatic character study of two men trying to be faithful to the loyalties they hold. Costner begins a torrid love affair with the mistress (Sean Young) of the Secretary of Defense, but when she turns up dead, Costner is implicated in a web of intrigue that threatens national security and exposes personal secrets at the highest levels. The Secretary and his men try to cover up the affair while simultaneously searching for a Soviet mole in their ranks. Featuring an exciting chase sequence through the Washington, D.C., subways, No Way Out is a standard issue thriller that nonetheless keeps the action coming. --Robert Lane

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AWESOME SUSPENSE FILM
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH REST OF VIEWERS,KEVIN COSTNERS BEST MOVIE,HES BRILLIANT.ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE CAST HELPED MAKE THIS MOVIE A 5 STARRER.BY ROSE



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - internal affair
I loved this movie years ago. NO WAY OUT is outlandish Hollywood fantasy that is not pretending, I don't think, to be anything other than entertaining escapism. If viewed as anything more serious, deduct 1 star from my rating. I glimpsed the blurbs included in the product description above and would agree NO WAY OUT is mesmerizing, but if you want a serious look at Washington power, the Pentagon, the CIA, etc., then check out fantastic documentaries like UNCOVERED TRUTH, THE TRIALS OF HENRY KISSINGER, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED, etc., etc., here on Amazon. Getting your ideas about power from a Kevin Costner movie is stupid. In anycase, NO WAY OUT is an enjoyable "nailbiter". Very "taut" and "stylish" Hollywood filmmaking. Too bad about Sean Young. What the?? I'm going to look her up on wikipedia in a second. Back in the 80s... she was drop dead gorgeous. Hah, I made a joke.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nail biting stuff!!
Even though this movie is getting on in years, I watched it for the first time recently and found it to be a thoroughly entertaining, suspenseful movie. One sits there hoping there WILL be a way out...



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nice slight of hand
For a twenty years old movie , No Way Out holds up very well. (From automobiles to clothing, it's easy to forget it is not a current release.) Like The Sixth Sense (Collector's Edition Series), the ending is a shocker and the build up exceptionally well crafted. If you've never seen the movie, you're in for a treat. If you have seen it and know the ending, it's still interesting to watch how the film makers lead the viewer along a apparently obvious path until the very end. Both films cleverly use movie clichés standardized characters to seduce the audience.
