Movie Reviews of Running Time

Movie Review: Just a great film...
Summary: 5 Stars

Josh Becker's Running Time is certainly one of the best film's I've seen in a long time. It's a crime caper with a gimmick-this film is seemingly shot in one continuous shot. While this makes for an interesting watch, Running Time has a lot more going for it than just that gimick.

Bruce Campbell turns in one of his strongest performances to date here as Carl, a convict just released from prison with one last heist to pull off. He and his partner in crime (Jeremy Roberts) assemble a crew to assist in the heist and before you know it the robbery it botched and Carl is running for his life.

Running Time's story written by Josh Becker (who also produced and directed) boasts nothing terribly original in terms of the actual plot, but his dialogue is sharp and brings all of his characters to life. Campbell really displays range in this film creating a wholly believable character who is struggling to make things right in his own life. It would be great to see this fine actor cast in more dynamic roles such as this one.

Although Running Time clocks in with a running time of 70 minutes, there's enough talent, humor and suspense in here for ten Hollywood productions. Josh Becker has always made great and interesting films, I anxiously look forward to his next project, Running Time was one of the best films I saw that year and it never gets old. Give this film a shot, it's as good a crime film as any made in the 90's and one that demands a larger audience.

Movie Review: Fun independent flick.
Summary: 5 Stars

If you're as sick to death of Hollywood big budget nonsense as I am you will want to see this movie. Creative, exciting, and it stars Bruce Campbell. Good DVD perks.

Movie Review: Really enjoyed it
Summary: 5 Stars

There were some hilarious moments. The one-shot-like concept was great, but the ending was a little anti-climatic.

Bruce Campbell is great.

Movie Review: STEADY-CAM BRILLIANCE
Summary: 4 Stars

PUT ASIDE ANY AND ALL NOTIONS THAT BECAUSE TWO PIVOTAL CHARACTERS (BRUCE CAMPBELL / JOSH BECKER) FROM EVIL DEAD / ARMY OF DARKNESS FAME ARE ONCE AGAIN CALABERATING ON A FILM PROJECT, THAT THE "CAMPINESS" AND CHEESY DIALOG PREVAILS. IT DOESN'T, BUT WHAT YOU DO GET IS: SHEAR BRILLIANCE IN FILM MAKING, I MEAN THE ACTUAL PROCESS OF MAKING A FILM, THE CAMERA WORK IS MANNED BY ONE STEADYCAM OPERATER, WHOSE CUT AWAYS ARE SO HIDDEN YOU GET A SENSE OF A "DOCUMENTARY" FEEL TO THE FILM. THE ACTORS HAVING TO HIT THIER MARKS TO KEEP THE CAMERA IN FOCUS AT ALL TIMES IS A REMARKABLE FEAT TO SEE. THE WRITING IS GREAT IF YOU YOU LIKE "LOW RENT CRIME" (AND WHO DOESN'T) AND THE ACTING IS BELIEVABLE. THE FACT THAT A COUPLE OF FRIENDS FROM MICHIGAN CAN "SCREW-AROUND" WITH FILM WOULD EVENTUALLY END-UP WITH THIS QUALITY OF WORK (WITH NO CORPORATE SUPPORT - EVER) IS WORTH DELVING DEEPER INTO THESE TWO ARTISTS WORK... PAST, PRESENT AND KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN FOR FUTURE WORK.... BECAUSE THE DIVIDENDS ARE STARTING TO PAY-OFF FOR THIS EVIL DEAD CLAN, AND IT'S LONG OVER DUE.
