Hit & Run

A comedy that never takes its foot off the gas.

Inspired by the Bert Reynolds movie Smokey and the Bandit, this is the story of Charlie Bronson (yes!), a nice guy with a questionable past who risks everything when he busts out of the witness protection program to deliver his fiancé to Los Angeles for a job interview. Their road trip grows progressively more complicated over time, when they are chased by Federal Agents, and Charlie's former pals, a band of gangsters... Expect a lot of car chases.

100 minutes.
No persons under 16 (Language, Nudity, Violence).
Action, Comedy, Romance.

Not currently showing on the local cinema circuit.

We must be in Paris.

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer Though Hit & Run has some surprisingly oft-kilter filmmaking, the action doesn't add to much and the writing's a bit smug.	10
