This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
It was fun and fairly bright. Some crass humor, and still bright language. I find Dax often write things with very specific communication tips in mind. It's interesting
Just Boring. And I am giving 5 stars only because of some actors whom I admire.(Bradley Cooper , Kristen Bell ,Ryan Hansen ). Why?? 1-Not an interesting story just the same old story that we saw thousands of times . And nothing actually happens in the movie . nothing that makes you sad or happy .just the two main characters that I did not like (I don not know about anyone else ) got everything in the end and nothing unexpected happens in this 1 hour and 41 minutes movie. 2-another thing was the poor choice of music which I think is one of the most important part of a movie .Unfortunately they just used lame musics in chasing scene and that was it . if I want to tell you the reasons that why this movie is boring I can not stop writing for like days . example: for a movie that is connected to awesome cars it did not have a lot of cool cars ( maybe 3 or 2 ) My advice : Do not buy this movie or rent it .watch this only if they are showing it for free and there is not anything better to do .
Hit and Run (2012): Dir: David Palmer, Dax Shepard / Cast: Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell, Bradley Cooper, Tom Arnold, Kristin Chenoweth: Car chase farce about relationship and facing one's past. Dax Shepard plays an ex-criminal who is on the witness protection program because he rode the getaway car to several bank robberies. His girlfriend is played by Kristen Bell who accepts a job in L.A but that means that Shepard must enter dangerous territory. She will learn much about her boyfriend on a long chase that is big on action but not so great on common sense. Bradley Cooper plays a former partner in crime who spent a rather uncomfortable stay in prison and seeks revenge. This results in several chase scenes that also includes Bell's possessive ex-boyfriend, gay cops, and a witness protection cop, played to great scene stealing hilarity by Tom Arnold. His van goes through a process that includes a bowling ball through the windshield, and brakes that frequently fail to work resulting in Arnold's hysteric outbursts. Kristin Chenoweth plays Bell's supervisor who sets her up for an interview with the University of California. Unlike the bicycle chaser Premium Rush, this contains little plot and becomes more or less a series of vulgar conversations mixed with car chases and crashes. The one saving grace is the actors who have great chemistry and pull off performances that are comically above the wreck of a screenplay. Directed by David Palmer and Dax Shepard who are backed by over the top wreckage that sometimes works but the end result is less a hit and more a run of stupidity. Score: 5 / 10
This movie is inappropriate for basically anyone. It had pornographic comedy which had nothing to do with the storyline. Its storyline is basically that this guy has a hit on his head and has to leave town before a guy he rated out to the cops finds him, and of course he cant go talk to the marshals looking out for him. The movie is almost like the main characters who are boyfriend and girlfriend in real life decided they don't see each other enough lets make a movie together. The comedy is okay and if the movie would have been better written then it could have been a huge hit, and also have been rated pg-13. The movie is not even relatively realistic. If a girl found out that her boyfriend is in witness protection, and that there is a maniac and his girlfriend out to kill her boyfriend. she isn't ganna jump in the car and say go baby go.
