Pavement Audience Reviews

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
cppearce3 A detective and a hunter/tracker team up to find a serial killer. The movie opens with a pregnant woman screaming in an OB clinic, and doctors are debating whether to save the fetus or not. The baby had Conradi–Hünermann syndrome, not Conroddy Syndrome.He/She grew up to become a serial killer seeking revenge on those involved in failing to abort him/her as a fetus.The dialog seems contrived and Lauren Holly is not convincing in her detective roll. Robert Patrick does a fair job as the tracker and brother of the first victim. The action was decent. The FBI and local police interactions were weak and not believable. The cops techniques for building a case was no really convincing or credible.
lons2002 I can't believe how positive most of the comments on this board are about this film. This is honestly one of the worst police procedurals I have ever seen...ever.Nothing is well thought out, and there is very little payoff or follow-through. The police are totally inept, and very rarely believable. As well, they all spout out the most tired, boring cop cliches stolen from every episode of "Law & Order" and "NYPD Blue." As for the element of the Alaskan tracker who hunts down the serial killer, this would only work if the killer confined him (or her) self to a small area of forest, which thankfully he (or she) does.Finally, the solution to the mystery (which I won't reveal, in case someone is foolish enough to rent this steaming pile) rests upon the silliest premise imaginable for a serial killer film. Seriously. It's that bad. I want to blow it for you, to tell you all how stupid it is, but I won't, because I hate spoilers. You've been warned...
Jay Harris Pavement---starts off quite disturbingly as a premature baby is being born, Now whats going to happen??NEXT we meet ROBERT PATRICK a so-so actor whose main claim to fame was as alien life form killer. This time he is a tracker of animals in Alaska. he is informed that his sister has been killed, & off he goes. With the help of a Female police officer they solve the case. Oh me, Oh my, we have seen this film before many time in many guises. Pavement is no worse of better than others in this genre.Rating **1/2 73 points/100 IMDB 6
teuthis The plot, development and resolution of "Pavement" were excellent. The suspense kept my interest from start to finish. The characters were realistic and dimensional. The action was good too. I think the director was a little free with police officers as fodder for various occasions; but beyond that I liked what I saw. I enjoy those gritty, realistic, but not overblown cop films, and this is a good one. The element of the tracker as an imaginative addition to the plot was excellent.I am a total Lauren Holly fan; and I thought she played her role flawlessly as a determined and professional detective, who is still very much a woman. She pulled it off with great aplomb. She is always a great pleasure to watch in anything she does.If you like really exciting and suspense-filled cop movies, see this one. To say any more might spoil the impact of all the elements that come together in this intriguing film. Just sit back and enjoy it.
