Critic Reviews of "Escape from Alcatraz"
VarietyMarch 26, 2009Escape from Alcatraz is relentless in establishing a mood and pace of unrelieved tension.
Time OutJanuary 26, 2006It's an austere depiction of the tedious routines of prison life, and of the courage and strength of spirit needed in coping with unpleasant warders, tough fellow-inmates, and a life sentence.
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004It's one of those very difficult exercises in which large emotions, like the compulsion to be free, are reflected in minute actions, like the chipping away at stone with a pocket nail clipper.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003What Mr. Siegel has made is fiction, a first-rate action movie that is about the need and the decision to take action, as well as the action itself.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsSeptember 01, 2010One of the better prison break films.
CinePassionNovember 13, 2009Siegel stages it all like a collection of haikus, all grilled corners and hard camera pans, not a single wasted frame
Combustible CelluloidJune 18, 2009Escape from Alcatraz was the last of five films that Don Siegel directed with Clint Eastwood, and it's the end of an impeccable track record.
eFilmCritic.comApril 17, 2005Eastwood adds a lot of grit to this entertaining prison flick.
Tolucan TimesSeptember 21, 2004Eastwood and McGoohan make this work.
