Hit and Run Movie Reviews

Essentially one long car chase, this mash-up of action-thriller and romantic-comedy is a helluva lotta fun. Boasting a richly textured screenplay, bouncy music score and fine performances by the lead pair, Hit & Run is vastly superior to earlier road romps such as Gone in 60 Seconds or Grand Theft Auto. To begin with, the story is a doozy. A former getaway driver (Dax Shepard, who also wrote, co-edited and directed the movie) decides to leave his witness protection programme

Hit & Run, starring real-life couple Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard, has been described as an action comedy, but it's neither very funny, nor are the car chases particularly thrilling. Shepard (from the popular American TV show Parenthood) writes, co-directs, and stars in this dull film as Charlie, a reformed getaway driver living in a small town in California with his college professor girlfriend, Annie (Bell). She doesn’t know about his past, but the secrets come tumbling out
