The clock is ticking as former race car driver Brent Magna (Ethan Hawke) barrels around the streets of Bulgaria to save his abducted wife. Inside a Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake, a desperate Brent obeys the anonymous voice coming through his speaker as it sets him and his unwitting passenger (Selena Gomez) on increasingly dangerous tasks. If they fail, Brent's wife dies. With the cops in hot pursuit, the two must flee or fight their faceless assailant in this breakneck, heart-pounding race against time. (Roadshow Entertainment)

Ethan Hawke is apparently seeking a "getaway" from the dumb scenario, however to no avail. And the awful visuals are not helping. The worst thing about this film, though, is the incredibly annoying and unlikeable Selena Gomez, whose acting skills are null – she was, for me, simply unbearable. The walk-ons by veterans like Paul Freeman or Jon Voight are not enough to save the day.

I didn’t find Gateway half as stupid as some people on this site claim. It might not be the cleverest movie on this planet, but it also contains so much adrenaline that that every single inhabitant of an entire city could take a piece each and there’d still be some left. Ethan Hawke doesn’t have time to act much, but he shows some excellent driving skills. Selena Gomez is rather grating but you’ll get used to her. You don’t need to try and wrap your head around all the logical lapses, ‘cause this is just a crazy adrenaline ride through Bulgarian Varna at its best, which managed to entertain me for the whole 85 minutes, thus fulfilling its purpose.
