movie review - A Perfect Getaway

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2018.04.20

This is a story about three couples who meet while hiking a famous path in a tropical paradise. Soon after they all meet, it's revealed that there's been a murder and that the police are looking for a man and a woman. After watching the interplay between the various parties I decided that the main characters had to be the killers. The other two couples were too obviously dominant/high status types. It was impossible that the writers weren't setting us up for a twist.

Not recommended.
