"A tightly wound and engrossing thriller!" – The Hollywood Reporter
Imagine being a hunter leading highly trained bloodhounds in pursuit of a killer… and the trail leads directly to you! Starring Academy-Award® winners Kevin Costner* and Gene Hackman,** No Way Out is "a mesmerizing look at Washington power" (The Hollywood Reporter). Capturing a well-deserved four stars from critic Roger Ebert, this "taut [and] stylish" (Newsweek) thriller is fast-paced and powerful — "a perfect nailbiter" (Variety)!
In a fit of rage, Secretary of Defense David Brice (Hackman) murders his mistress (Sean Young, Blade Runner). To keep a lid on the scandal, Brice's loyal aide (Will Patton, Falling Skies) creates the perfect cover-up: he "invents" a more enticing killer — a Russian spy — and then enlists Naval Commander Tom Farrell (Costner) to find him. But as a chilling twist of fate would have it, Farrell also has a strong connection to the victim… and now all the clues he's been hired to uncover are leading straight to him! In a desperate race against time, Farrell's search for the killer is not only a matter of national security, but also a matter of saving his own hide.
