Caine admits in the DVD interviews that he did this forgettable thriller as an excuse to spend the winter in the South of France. Keaton's nowhere to be found in the interview section as if he was embarrassed to have been involved.

Audience Reviews for Quicksand

Certainly not a terrible movie in my books!I love Michael Caine with his witty english humour, which i very much enjoyed.If your looking for a simple enough plot with an okay storyline but with quick a bit of action then this will keep you amused!

Entertaining but a little annoying at times [the protagonist's stupid moves]. If it weren't for Keaton & Caine this movie would probably get less than two stars.
