David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...the stunt casting of Wayne Newton as a vicious mob boss undoubtedly reason enough to give Night of the Running Man a look.

nick s Gave up on this early. After the first car chase grinds to a halt the antagonists don't think to retrieve the suitcase from the incapacited cab. Yet they must have seen the victim step into the vehicle with it. Makes no sense as that was the point of the chase. Then the cab, which was so damaged one of the front wheels had collapsed and the headlamp fell out, turns up in the next scene in perfect condition. Also the script writing is terrible. I couldn't see enough promise to continue watching. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Bada B Great movie!I watched it many times! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Audience Member rewatching 1st time since renting it in 1995. it looks like the early 90s & for me that's a very comforting vibe. Scott Glenn is a real scumbag in this. from killing a woman he just had sex w then leaving money on the dresser like she was a hooker to slashing a mugger across the eyes a few minutes later. then there's Kim Lankford who plays a waitress w a heart of gold who's the definition of ride or die. she is dropped off a dam during an interrogation by Glenn who takes away her best attribute(loyalty) then killing her. what a scumbag. this movies was well cast w good actors that played smaller roles in some well known tv shows. very underrated w a early 90s nostalgia feel that reminds me of waiting to midnight to buy the new Radiohead album @ Tower Records. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow talk about unoriginal, cardboard, crap. The director tries to cover for a bad script by adding nudity like some B level straight to video showtime movie of the past, and really over done moments of sadistic behavior by the killer who would have been caught long ago due to his endless string of dead bodies that follow him across the country... the low point of several of these actors careers... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Poorly written...characters are static and close to stupid...some of the cast seemed to have survived the ordeal and went on to better things others ... well .. they were trampled by real bad storytelling. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member In all honestly this movie sucks but it's a great movie to watch with friends if you're talking over it and or getting drunk. I don't have anything against Andrew McCarthy but he's definitely not built for action movies. If you're anything like me then you're rooting for the bad guy, and that is what makes this movie somewhat enjoyable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
