What critics compared Getaway to
As the dust settles from the critic's screening of the 90-minute chase scene that is " Getaway ," I still can't decide whether the featured Shelby Mustang is supposed to be an homage to McQueen's chase in "Bullitt" or a subtle hint that the device is about to be ruined forever.
There's an inclination to call "Need for Speed" a poor man's "Fast and Furious," or even compare it to last year's "Getaway," but at least "Need for Speed" has a couple of advantages on Ethan Hawke's disaster.
