  Gene Hackman: No Way Out - Movie
Roger Donaldson's 1987 film regarding the intrigues of the Department of Defense and the Pentagon starring Kevin Costner, Sean Young, and Gene Hackman.
This is a better movie to rent as it counts on mystery to carry the suspense which is resolved at the end of the film.
"No Way Out" stars Kevin Costner as Navy Commander Ferrel who is assigned as an aid to the Secretary of Defence Brice (Gene Hackman).

 MMI Review: No Way Out   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The idea of a man searching for an alleged killer who turns out to be himself while he is trapped in the same building as the real killer will probably work in 2027.
The fact that "No Way Out" is set in the Pentagon and was released in the same summer as the Iran-Contra hearings lends density to the plot, and gives the film a chance to make sharp observations about ruthless power plays in Washington.
In the last few minutes of "No Way Out", Garland seems to have lost faith in the material and the ending is cluttered with several plot twists so embarrassing that it's a relief not to reveal the film's 'shocking ending'.

 Amazon.ca: No Way Out (Widescreen/Full Screen): DVD: Roger Donaldson,Kevin Costner,Gene Hackman,Sean Young,Will ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
"No Way Out" is a government thriller about an officer wrongly accused of murder--when the Secretary of State himself is the culprit trying to avoid a scandal by launching a top-secret cover-up.
The great thing about "No Way Out," and another factor that separates it from the rest of its kind, is something that's hard to explain to someone who hasn't seen the film.
No spoilers here, but just let it be said that as one watches the film, it twists and turns and continues to surprise the viewer.

There is "no way out" other than to expose one of the most powerful men in Washington as a murderer.
The movie was genuinely filmed, however, in the entrance of the Pentagon.
When I mentioned to the PA Director what a great movie that was, and how it gave me an idea of where I'd be working, he set the record straight this way: "The movie is about the Secretary of Defense being a bisexual killer.

 No Way Out, December 19, 1999
The most popular DC movie, at least for this issue, is “No Way Out,” because of its memorably confused geography.
My favorite by far is the Kevin Costner movie, “No Way Out,” where he hops on the non-existent Metro station at Georgetown Park, goes down the stairs to the Baltimore Metro, and gets off at the Old Post Office Pavilion.
In “No Way Out,” Kevin Costner leads Gene Hackman's henchpersons on a car chase across the Key Bridge into Georgetown, gets out of his car, runs down the escalator into the Georgetown Metro station (marked by a proper brown Metro station pylon that says “Georgetown” on it), and emerges in the Old Post Office Pavilion.

 JoBlo reviews the movie "No Way Out"
All in all, one of the best thrillers to come out of the 80s, and certainly one that still holds up to the test of time.
Although I've seen worse, it's not a movie I would recommend or watch for a second time.
This movie is one of the most overlooked great films of the the 1980's - great story - twist end - one that can be pulled off the shelves every couple of years to enjoy along with a bag of popcorn - looking forward to the DVD release in a month or so.

 Comedy Central: Movies - No Way Out - Plot Summary
No Way Out is told in flashback as Naval officer Tom Farrell (Kevin Costner) is grilled by his superiors regarding a recent "unpleasantness." While at a Washington party, Tom meets Susan Atwel (Sean Young), and they're soon sharing a steamy love scene in the back of a limo (marvelously parodied in 1993's Hot Shots!
When Susan is murdered by Brice, his loyal aide (Will Patton) dutifully destroys the evidence and invents the fallacious theory that a KGB mole was responsible.
Tom is assigned to locate that mole -- a perilous situation, since Tom knows that no such mole exists, but must go along with the charade since he was the last person who was seen with Susan.

 No Way Out (1987)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The casting of Gene Hackman adds an elevated sense of authority to the whole movie, and he puts in his usual professional efforts as the politician who knows there could be no way out.
Actually, it is Costner who ends up having no way out, having been implicated in a death, and he has to work against the clock to prove what's really going on.
This is the first Costner film I had seen, and the crackling script is really brought to life by the director, who builds up an extreme sense of tension as the clock ticks away.

 Intelliflix: Rent No Way Out on DVD
This is one of the benchmark for the movies based on political drama and corruption in government departments.
The world around Farrell changes, as the people he was supposed to trust turns out to be corrupt and partners with the defence secretary.
Go for this movie if you like the conspiracy and political thriller because till date very few movies are made up to this mark.

 Skokie Public Library: Movie Annotations - Review
Set in Washington D.C., No Way Out features Costner as a Naval officer who is assigned to lead the murder investigation of a woman who has been killed by a Russian spy.
No, I’m not ruining anything here…all of this (including the limo scene) is told pretty early on in the film.
It is after the murder that the movie takes off in all directions and leaves the audiences constantly surprised.

 Skokie Public Library: Movie Annotations - Review
I saw this film for the first time after I watched the 1987 Kevin Costner film No Way Out, which is based on this 1948 Ray Milland movie.
Both are good cat-and-mouse thrillers, different enough to be unique movies, but similar in all of the major plot points.
The Big Clock might always be known as the movie No Way Out is based on, but it stands alone as a solid, thoroughly entertaining mystery.

 No Way Out (1987) - Channel 4 Film review
However, as David Brice (Hackman), the Secretary of Defense, is himself the culprit (it was an accident) and Farrell was is Atwell's man on the side, who aroused Brice's jealousy in the first place, he has to think quickly to stop being framed himself.
The Big Clock, No Way Out is a cleverly plotted thriller with impeccable performances.
Costner is spot on as the man who finds it hard to play by others' rules, even if it may cost him his head.

 NO WAY OUT
Once the film is over, her death doesn't really seem worth all the trauma and bloodshed that follows, but I guess the filmmakers' needed something to trigger all the intrigue.
NO WAY OUT certainly wasn't one of the best films of the 80s, but if you like thrillers, you won't be disappointed.
Without a doubt, one of Costner's best performances and the reason he became such a big star.

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.
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.
