Running Scared is Wayne Kramer's follow-up to The Cooler. I found this film somewhat entertaining sort of in the same way that I enjoy some of David Cronenberg's films. It is rather frenetic and overdone in all respects: the visuals, the... Full review

If you were to watch only one movie in your entire life... Running Scared would be the one to watch. I have read other reviews for this movie, those that say this movie is sub-par are simply sub-par critics. This movie... Full review

Running Scared starts out perfect and then just keeps getting better and better. The movie keeps giving and giving until the very end. The whole movie the action scenes were all very brutal, intense, and great to watch. I think for... Full review

If the two were to mesh into one film set in modern day New Jersey, you would create this film without flaw. Paul Walker kicks serious ass in this story of revenge, hate and most of all, to keep living. ... Full Review

DVD Talk
Running Scared is ultra-violent, defiantly tasteless and often ugly. The movie starts with a literal and figurative bang. Running Scared is adrenaline-charged, junky fun, but Kramer appears to take it -- and himself -- a bit too seriously. ... Full Review

Entertainment Insiders
One of the more underrated films to come out in 2006, "Running Scared" is one of those wickedly fun action thrillers that sacrifices substance for style, but somehow works because of it. New Line presents "Running Scared" in a 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer that translates the film's stylistic cinematography very well on the small screen. ... Full Review

DVD Town
The film requires him to be constantly on edge for a good portion of the two hour running time and, for the most part, Walker handles this quite well. The story is absurd in the way it gravitates from one moment to the next. ... Full Review
