No Way Out - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars

Kevin Costner stars in this  remake of THE BIG CLOCK, a 1948 film which I saw and didn't like and frankly don't see that much in common with this film.In fact I got a kick out of the ending of this flick.Really unexpected.A good supporting cast raps up a pretty good cold war thriller.Released in 1987 it runs 114 minutes.I took 1 and 1/2 stars off because it is kinda dated.Sean Young's hair has to go.Also there's a pretty hot back seat limo scene not really fit for kids but ok for us adults.Still worth a view and I think one of Costner's better films.Trailer URL follows the pix and a IMDB summary below.


Tom Farrell is a navy officer who gets posted at the Pentagon and is to report to the secretary of defense David Brice. He starts an affair with Susan Atwell not knowing that she is Brice's mistress. When Susan is found dead, Tom is assigned to the case of finding the killer who is believed to be a KGB mole! Tom could soon become a suspect when a Polaroid negative of him was found at Susan's place. He now has only a few hours to find the killer before the computer regenerates the photo.
