Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
robbedwardmorris-28883 There's always the movie and the "movie" behind making the movie. I liked them both. I watched the film twice. Dax Sheppard is hilarious! Bravo to him for putting it together. He conceived a baby and made it grow. "Hit and Run" is a fun ride. Knowing what went into making the film made it all the more fun to watch. He used his own girl, his own cars, his own friends, and his own script. This is not always recommended. In fact, most of the time it's highly discouraged because it is often laced with conceit. But when the effort is laced with love, there is a much better chance of making it work. That's the case with "Hit and Run". I love this movie because I felt the love that went into making it. And it's funny too. Hearing Bradly Cooper tell about taking one for the team and Dax's character's reaction is priceless!
carbuff I'm going to be pretty short and sweet here. There are some movies that get better as they go along--this isn't one of them. It has a decent soundtrack, a few good lines and scenes, and if you're into cars, a few pieces of nice metal. That's about it. It never really comes together and gets increasingly lame towards the end. I didn't hate myself for watching it, but I sure felt that I could have done an awful lot better with some other movie.Basically, watch the trailer and not the actual movie and you'll do just as well, since all of the good lines and scenes were used in an attempt to drag you into the theater.
Bruna Pinheiro Okay, this is my first time reviewing a movie on IMDb and that's how much I liked this movie, enough to come here and tell people to watch it. 6.1, really? This movie deserves so much more! I don't wanna give away anything. It's very different from everything I've seen. I absolutely loved the writing and the directing for this movie. Dax Shepard did a superb job with everything. The dialogs are so sharp and witty and fun and everything is great in general. I sound like a big fan girl and I have to say that after this movie, I really am now. Man, the soundtrack is on point! Also, the cast is amazing. I had no expectations whatsoever for this despite being a big Kristen Bell fan but I ended up loving everything about this movie. Go see it! Good job, Dax!
Jacob Rosen Clearly a labor of love for Dax Shepard (he stars, writes, co-directs and co-edits; and it's filmed in the more expensive 2:40 aspect ratio), Hit And Run is better than it has to be. This isn't to say it's a great entertainment (it has plenty of filler and Shepard's ambitious attempts at character development, a la Tarentino, don't quite pan out) but it is often fun to watch and the cars--and the chases--are cool. While too much time is spent on drawn-out arguments between Shepard and his significant other (in the film and, apparently, in real life, played by Kristen Bell) and there's some negative dialogue regarding homosexuality and race (note to Shepard: acknowledging homophobia and racism in the dialogue doesn't simply make it permissible) it's not a bad way to kill a couple of hours. Shepard must be a really popular guy in Hollywood because a lot of the performers (high among them Bradley Cooper) would not normally appear in a movie this B-grade.
