Run

Where to be begin? Well, this was one of those movies you happen to watch on netflix. This movie centers around a kid who is a hero, and a thief. Amongst all other things, he's just your average outcast. He moves from town to town never really finding a home. There's very little to this movie. Very simple plot, no surprises at all. It's a matter of when it will end, not how. The acting is very mediocre and lazy. The writing doesn't really grasp your attention. I feel like this movie was made for Disney. (Coincidentally it stars a former Disney star 'Kelsey Chow')If you minus the few gun scenes, this movie would have been stamped with a PG rating. If you're looking for a "live action" thriller, this is not it. It merely advertises as fast action, but it simply does not deliver.

I watch a lot of action flicks and RUN is right up there. Its more than a fast paced take of the hero villain, its a testament to cool angles and top editing, mixed in with killer sound tracks and some awesome air that defies the laws of both film making and gravity. Its great to see the use of youth arts and physique, and there is no shortage of screen holding energy. This may be a flick for the younger ones, while the older ones will enjoy a peak into youth culture, all the while its about self esteem and character building. Yeah, its a take on the young hero, and the phase in life when young ones think themselves as invincible, but for us older types, its cool to get a window back into the current if not changing youth. Its back to the normal prescribed action formula of eye for an eye, except, there are new spunks to eye, and walls to climb, so this flick takes us, into new familiar grounds. It celebrates all things youth fashion and artz, while exploring Parkour, is a holistic training discipline using movement that developed from military obstacle course training. Practitioners aim to get from A to B in the most efficient way possible.They do this using only their bodies and their surroundings to propel themselves; furthermore, they try to maintain as much momentum as is possible in a safe manner.

This movie was done well, could have had more in-depth and dynamic characters, but still a good movie. There is a villain in this movie, who has guns and some "back-up" that really spice up the movie. Interesting, and the main characters are really attractive and teenage-looking. There is some action scenes here and there, it's exciting, and makes you smile in the end. It's not cheesy, as you might think. It involves fixing past mistakes and reevaluating your perspective in life, but you gotta deal with someone trying to kill you first and using Pakour skills to run away. Good movie to pass time if you're bored or if you like doing Pakour. Give this movie a shot, and you might like it.

All-around enjoyable It's not THAT bad , if you love Parkor you can give a try , for me i like this movie over all simple and fun

What shall I say...simply unbelievable!! Without computer effects,finally made by men only (I remember "The Crow"...all computer made!!),here is something real! Considering I suppose the low available budget for realizing such a film, the result is simply great! The plot is well developed, and of course in my opinion the best is the 3D technique.... the film was rewarded with a reason! Well done by all the cast, it's not only for young but also for those who like films for a "new generation"....thanks to the director who portrays such new generation!
