Movie Review

Grade: D+ Switchback is a pathetic thriller with a bad story. It could have used a larger budget and a better plot; most of the movie, the serial killer doesn't do anything bad... He just talks and has a fun time. While Danny Glover does a good job, Dennis Quaid doesn't. Though having some cool cinematography, Switchback fails miserably. Read the full movie review
