I heard this was a steaming pile of dog's mess. The DVD cover look's atrocious and the kiddie friendly rating put's me off big time. It also proclaims FROM THE PRODUCERS OF UNDERWORLD, that definitely put me off!

RUNNING SCARED
Paul Walker has not particulary inspired me (Fast and The Furious/Into the Blue), but he was engaging in this hard ássed retro influenced actioner. Walker is a small time gangster who loses a hand gun that could implicate his gangster boss's. So a frantic 18 hours ensues as he traces the gun. The violence and dialogue hark back to the golden age of the 70's and 80's where the violence is brutal. There are a few too many sub plots, and the director is sometimes accused of over indulgence in the visual stakes, but this was still a 2hour ride.
