Review of Quicksand

Quicksand (2003)
7/10
Time-Pass!
13 September 2012
John Mackenzie's 'Quicksand' is a Time-Pass flick, that isn't meant to be taken too seriously. It delivers what is promises: Fair Entertainment.

'Quicksand' Synopsis: After a workaholic banker journeys to Monaco to investigate the suspicious activities of a company, he finds himself framed for murder and running for his life.

'Quicksand' is pretty engaging, but its surely not flawless. The Screenplay has a few loopholes, that keep popping-up, but overall, the Screenplay is fairly constructed. John Mackenzie's Direction is decent. Cinematography is good. Editing is average.

Performance-Wise: Michael Keaton is excellent, as always. He plays the protagonist with ease. Sir Michael Caine appears in an extended cameo & he does just fine. Judith Godreche does an okay job. Rade Šerbedžija is superb.

On the whole, 'Quicksand' is a fair entertainer.
