Goes so far over the top, it circumnavigates the top and doubles back on itself; it's the Mobius Strip of over-the-topness. I am in awe. It throws in everything but the kitchen sink. Then it throws in the kitchen sink, too, and the combo washer-dryer in the laundry room, while the hero and his wife are having sex on top of it.
A fresh crime dubstep movie. It has its touch with a pop culture mix and a lot of blood. I loved Running Scared, it's a movie with a lot of brilliant storyline and an unusual sprite of blood and guns which is not for the little ones or anyone who doesn't like splatters. Paul Walker is very good, loved him as Brian in Fast and Furious and loved him in Fast Five. People get shot in the ass, head and even eyes! It's crazy but I don't know why I loved this movie. It's awesome! The story is gritty and the suspense is freezing and nail biting till the end. Vera Farminga was excellent as Walker's wife. The old school Tarantino violent setting with an absurd amount of flashback usage in the making of this film! A very old school action druggie movie about a gun that gets stolen that could lead to a lot problems with cops and Pau Walker. A kid is shooting his- okay, enough spoilers! Watch the movie! Not for the people that don't like movies! Awesome, jarring and nail biting, Running Scared is excellent.
The ugliness on display in Running Scared has neither "Sin City's" context nor its wit, and it offers little more than stylish excess for its own sake, with no clear aspirations other than to twist people's arms until they yelp "Uncle."
Running Scared is so desperate and surreally stupid that all you would have to do to see it as a brilliant sendup of everything that is corrupt, vulgar, sad, deluded and bad-for-you about Hollywood is squint.
Unecessary roughness of action films...explorations of children, incoerency, bad **** spite of solid Vera Farmiga, the rest is a trash. By the way, the rivality USA X USSR comes back: depreciative and inconvenient. Fake Action!
This is the only film I've ever seen that is worse than Tommy W's "The Room". At least that piece of garbage was so bad it was good; this however, is just horrendous ly terrible.
