Movies like The Sugarland Express

Written by Quentin Tarantino, True Romance showcases a young couple fleeing with stolen cocaine and attempting to sell it in Hollywood. The film's blend of dark humor, romance, and crime offers parallels to The Sugarland Express.

Thelma & Louise captures the spirit of freedom, rebellion, and Americana through the story of two women on the run from the law. Its narrative of cross-country criminal adventure resonates with that of The Sugarland Express.

Oliver Stone's controversial film follows a young couple on a violent crime spree. Like The Sugarland Express, it explores the media fascination with criminals but with a far more satirical and darkly comedic tone.

This quintessential outlaw film follows the true story of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, the notorious bank-robbing couple during the Great Depression. Its combination of crime, romance, and a road-movie essence echoes The Sugarland Express in its portrayal of a couple against the world.

A comedy about an ex-convict and his wife kidnapping a baby after discovering they cannot have one of their own, Raising Arizona provides another unique take on the crime-cum-road movie theme from an offbeat perspective, much like The Sugarland Express.

David Lynch's Wild at Heart is a darkly surreal road movie about a couple who hit the road to escape various nefarious characters. Its exploration of a romance-fueled escape is in the same vein as The Sugarland Express.

Starring Steve McQueen and Ali MacGraw, The Getaway is about a husband-and-wife bank robber team. The combination of heist drama and a couple on the run draws a close parallel to The Sugarland Express.
