A random movie review by Quarter Life Crisis' own Kev Halk

Don't be Scurd, It's Running scared.

Last night we watched the movie 'running scared', it was entertaining at least. Started fairly stylish but ended up being a huge mess of every random thing that could happen.
Paul walker said the f word in every sentence.
The kid shoots his father because he badmouthed john wayne, then the kid runs away, gets kidnapped by a homeless person, who shoots some crack dealers, then he escapes and runs into a pimp beating a whore, then gets kidnapped by pedophile killers, then the mother shoots them.
oh yeah, he also went to the hospital to switch the shells, and the prostitute with the kid used the gun to rob a pharmacy to get an inhaler for him and then they met up in the diner and the kid hid the gun in the back of a toilet, and the Mexican janitor took the gun to his house and lost it in a game of poker, so Paul walker hacked into the personal records of the diner and went to the janitor's house and busted up his card game.
Then he's like 'where the fuck is the gun?' and the guy's response is he sticks up his middle finger so Paul walker snaps it and everybody in the room starts laughing. He lost the gun to some other Mexican dude so Paul walker goes to that guy's work (a car garage), and they battle and the guy pulls out fire and starts trying to burn him, then Paul walker steals it and threatens the guy and the guy confesses that he just sold the gun to the pimp, whom he later stabs in the neck after throwing a handful of creamers in his face.
Chazz palminieri tries to blackmail the mobsters and gets blown up, then the Russians are in the mob and think Paul walker set up the Russian father, so they question him, then the one Russian Paul walker was accused of trying to assassinate takes of his shirt and walks away, so the other Russian shoots him in the back. The only reason they're there is because the Russians think Paul walker was trying to kill the one guy, then the other Russian just randomly shoots him.
Then everybody gets killed, then Paul walker and the kid stop for breakfast and kill a pimp. Then the meth lab explodes killing the Russian's wife, then Paul walker confesses he was an UNDERCOVER COP WEARING A WIRE THE ENTIRE TIME!.
Then he dies and his wife attends his funeral.
Then she meets up with him and says I'm never burying you again.
He was a cop the whole time wearing a wire? Didn't he kill like 15 people trying to make sure the cops didn't find the gun that could convict the guy he was trying to convict?
It was like 10 movies in one.
Oh well, that's my rant.
What else did we forget...
Oh yeah, he also beat the shit out of his dad with a bat when he was 14, so the old guy keeps dropping spaghetti on his lap., and the kids really like the hockey team, then at the end there's hockey players skating around shooting pucks at them and trying to kill them, and he has to shoot the random hockey players too.
I thought they'd turn to zombies, or some aliens would come, or they'd end up in a jungle or something.
It was entertaining only in its awfulness.
2 hours 2 minutes of never knowing what the fuck was going to happen the next minute.
Oops the guys dad came out of the house and killed his wife.. Now an alien's chewing on his father and ate the gun, so he has to chase it back to the jungle and gets kidnapped by natives.
And then the jungle gets stormed by the army and they kidnap the guy and send him to bootcamp and the pimp's also in bootcamp and he kills him, and finds out the Russian kid is actually his son.
That can be the sequel!.
I'll give 2.5 stars

That was a post at the request of Ash, written soley By Kev Halk. (the red face) I've edited it very slightly so it flows more like a review, as it was taken from an MSN conversation. Enjoy Randomness at its finest.
