Review of Running Scared (1986) by Kevin S — 20 May 2013

This witty movie is about two wise cracking cops who are chasing a drug dealer. When the chase goes wrong their captain sends them on vacation so they go to key west and while there they open a business and decide to try something different.

They are getting ready to start their business and get ready to retire the force. When they come back the dealer is ready to do a big drug deal and now have to return to being a cop and settle the score with the drug dealer.

Here you have a great movie that is full of great action and has plenty of laughs. I thought the chemistry between Gregory Hines and billy crystal was extraordinarily funny. Their comedic performance was done at a high level that makes you get through the movie with ease.

And also makes you laugh until you can't stand it no more. If you are in need of a great comedy/action movie then your prescription is Running Scared.
