Hitman's Run

Summary: Hitman's Run
Review: A bit skeptical at first, however knowing Eric Barker's writing, I knew he could pull it off. This was definately action packed, but with a gripping and compelling story. Gibson may have been busy that day, but it is his loss not Mr. Barker's. Good job Eric!

Summary: Action, Humor, and a great script
Review: A surprisingly good action movie that stars what I consider to be a movie killer--Eric Roberts. The direction is not great (sloppy and uneven) but is saved by a very well written script (by unknown Eric Barker). Violent--yes, but then again the movie is called Hitman's Run and the box has a very large gun pointing at you. If you want family friendly entertainment go rent a Disney cartoon. If you like good shoot 'em up action movies that don't treat the viewer as an idiot this one's a find.

Summary: Get this movie
Review: Although more intelligent than the typical "blow it up and grunt a cocky one-liner before kissing the girl" action flick, Hitman's Run will never win any awards for drama. But hey, let's face it, if you like drama, you are probably not shopping for a movie with a picture on the jacket of a large gun aimed at your face. I really enjoyed this movie and agree with the first reviewer that the writing was quite good while the direction was a little heavy handed at times. The dialogue was biting, overall plot development was solid without getting in the way of the action, and the characters were as believable as you are going to find in this genre. I would highly recommend this film.

Summary: Fast and furious
Review: Bullets and one-liners fly with reckless abandon, fast enough for even die hard action fans. Despite poor production value and amatuer direction, the writing stands out in one of the smartest action flicks you'll find on the small screen.

Summary: Good Movie for Action Freaks
Review: If you are an ERIC ROBERTS fan this is one for the books. Hitman's Run. A great story idea but it is destroyed by the direction. Choppy, sloppy and often confusing. Mark Lester seems to be going backwards instead of forward. It is saved only by Eric Roberts and Damian Chapa. I want to know who edited this thing. He or she fails to let the shots develop especially in the action sequences. Great car chases, good fight scenes and hefty explosions. Who did the 2nd Unit? It really carried and probably saved the movie. Yes, low-budget but still a good, no-brainer Friday night experience. MARK LESTER: BRING ME MORE LIKE THAT!
