Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Kathleen Murphy (78) for MSN Movies (470) on 26 Aug 2012

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Dan Lybarger (786) for Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (1,391) on 25 Aug 2012

New York bicycle couriers lead such dangerous lives that it seems it would be possible to make a thrilling movie about them without having…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By James Berardinelli (4,524) for ReelViews (4,523) on 25 Aug 2012

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Nick Pinkerton (448) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 Aug 2012

There is a lot of silly bike-is-life philosophy, including Wilee's personal credo of Fixed gear, steel frame, no brakes, none of which I can…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Chris Stuckmann (217) for Moviedex (362) on 25 Aug 2012

It's the kinetic energy Koepp injects into the premise that overshadows the predictable plotting and pushes your pulse into the danger zone…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Andrea Chase (1,182) for Killer Movie Reviews (1,182) on 24 Aug 2012

The powers that be perfectly understand that they are making an evening's diversion, not an artistic statement, which in itself may be a perfectly…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Robin Clifford (1,670) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 24 Aug 2012

Techs, especially for the fast-paced chases, are pretty slick and hold your eye. After a while though, it all gets repetitive…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Laura Clifford (2,742) for Reeling Reviews (4,376) on 24 Aug 2012

Director David Koepp (Stir of Echoes) has orchestrated many thrilling sequences of bicyclists dodging and weaving through the real life traffic…

By Sean P. Means (2,056) for Salt Lake Tribune (1,927) on 24 Aug 2012

Gordon-Levitt, fresh off his pivotal role in The Dark Knight Rises, is an engaging leading man - tough and plucky, but also charming and accessible…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By David Medsker (361) for Bullz-Eye.com (1,091) on 24 Aug 2012

There is virtually nothing original about the premise of Premium Rush, but its execution is immensely entertaining…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Kam Williams (1,272) for AALBC.com (174) on 24 Aug 2012

A Tour de Gridlock unfolding at a breakneck pace that doesn't give you a chance to pause to consider whether what you're watching is even credible…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Pete Vonder Haar (745) for Houston Press (294) on 24 Aug 2012

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 24 Aug 2012

A silly, race-against-time thriller, filled with impressive chase scenes and stunt work on a bike without brakes…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Matt Brunson (2,422) for Creative Loafing (2,337) on 24 Aug 2012

A movie built around a bicycle messenger is a risky venture -- as an adrenaline-pumper, it sounds about as promising as Driving Miss Daisy…

The whole thing is nearly brought to its knees by David Sardy's abominable score…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Alonso Duralde (1,351) for TheWrap (3,203) on 23 Aug 2012

It's a good thing that adrenaline tends to short-circuit logical thinking; the plot is mostly nonsensical, but you'll be too thrilled by the…

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Leonard Maltin (609) for leonardmaltin.com (584) on 23 Aug 2012

I don't know how a film this entertaining and expertly-made can show up the last week of summer, but I'm not complaining…

By John Beifuss (1,947) for Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) (1,944) on 23 Aug 2012

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By Tony Medley (1,109) for Tolucan Times (639) on 23 Aug 2012

Review of Premium Rush (2012)

By S. James Wegg (203) for JWR (201) on 23 Aug 2012
