Run & Gun

Would not call it B movie gold but give it a shot there are much worse big studio films. Some of the story is cliche however their few unique character development moments that would be fun to watch in a limited series. Bumped it a star for the cowboy bebop reference!

A low budget film that punches above it's weight class. A clever idea for a film. If the budget was bumped up, they had an A-list actor and if wrote it less as a horror film; I could see this getting a following.

What a load of crap. A weakly written story, diabolically directed and cringe worthy acting. Don't bother watching unless you really have nothing else better to do, like mowing the lawn or cleaning the toilet.

The story is not particularly strong, there is a lot that I wish was explained better, and the movie all-around feels like there are some scenes that are missing, although I wouldn't be able to tell you what would happen in them.

However, this is a fun movie. It is the perfect amount of goofy to go with the action, the acting is well done I thought, and the action itself isn't half bad.

There is something missing, maybe a plotline or something that would make it feel more complete, but overall that feeling of something left out kinda makes me jones for a sequel. Also, the movie has some hint of reality in the form the action takes, and it could be the director's choice to not allow the audience to know everything and that missing information is what feels like a gap.

I had a lot of fun watching it, I will likely watch it again and I will recommend it to friends. I have never left a review on here before but saw a user who gave it 1/10 stars and felt like that was so unjust that I had to leave my uneducated consumer opinion.

Stumbling upon the 2022 action thriller "Run and Gun" by random chance and seeing that the movie had Mark Dacascos on the cast list, of course I had to sit down and watch what writer and director Christopher Borrelli had to offer.

And while "Run and Gun" certainly was watchable, it just wasn't a particularly outstanding or memorable action thriller. In fact, there are far better action thrillers out there, which makes "Run and Gun" feel like a very bland and generic one actually. It is good enough for a single viewing, but that is about all it had to offer. And I bet 24 hours after having seen it, the memory of the movie will be fading away.

The storyline told in "Run and Gun", as written by Christopher Borrelli, was just too mediocre and bland. There was nothing riveting or particularly exciting about the things that transpired in the movie. And the narrative didn't really have much of any ongoing momentum or drive, so it felt like the action thriller was mostly running in Neutral gear.

I wasn't familiar with Ben Milliken (playing Ray), whom had the lead part in the movie. He was actually a fair enough actor and worked well enough with the limitations imposed by an improper script and storyline. Mark Dacascos was good in the movie, just a shame that he hadn't a larger role to play. It was actually quite fun to watch Richard Kind in the role that he portrayed.

If you enjoy action thrillers, then "Run and Gun" is not the best of choices.

I am rating "Run and Gun" a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.
