Liam Gaughan is a writer at Collider with a passion for classic films and the work of Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese.
The Big Picture While he is now primarily known as an icon of the Western genre thanks to the overwhelming success of Yellowstone and his neo-Western thriller Let Him Go, Kevin Costner helped prop up many underrepresented genres during the first stage of his career.
Release Date August 14, 1987 Director Roger Donaldson Cast Kevin Costner , Gene Hackman , Sean Young , Will Patton , Howard Duff , George Dzundza , Jason Bernard , Iman Runtime 114 minutes Main Genre Thriller Writers Robert Garland Budget $15,000,000 Distributor Orion Pictures What Is Kevin Costner's ‘No Way Out’ About? Both set and released during the height of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, No Way Out is a political conspiracy thriller that examines...
The aftermath of Atwell’s death allows the viewer to fully invest in Farrell’s attempt to uncover the conspiracy; not only is he attempting to prove that his boss is involved in treason, but he’s attempting to help preserve the memory of the woman that he loved. Although Brice is able to avoid justice by creating a story that implicates his general counsel Scott Pritchard , the final scene reveals that Costner’s character was the real KGB agent the whole time.
The final segment of No Way Out is so chilling and effective that you may feel inspired to rewatch the film from the very beginning to see the hints about Farrell’s true identity that were made early on. Although it may be fun to point out the moments of foreshadowing, No Way Out has less emotional value upon a subsequent viewing. Knowing that Farrell is part of a larger conspiracy makes his attempts to uncover Brice’s crimes less empowering.
