It is getting good, better and better by the time and when it's over you ought to say: Brilliant Noir. The cast makes it spicy, especially Kevin is the live-wire.

No Way Out is one of those movies that'll get you in suspence. The theme song from No Way Out is pretty good also, and yeah, years ago I love this film since I watched it and the chase scenes are a lot of fun and the twist in the end reallyNo Way Out is one of those movies that'll get you in suspence.

Throw in one of the most distractingly dated scores I've ever heard and you've got yourself quite the experience. Was it an experience that I regret? Not at all. But its flaws are just too flagrant to ignore.… Expand
