Review of Running Time

Running Time (1997)
8/10
Why wasn't Bruce Campbell more famous?

Warning: Spoilers
Real time "one take" (saw the cuts) of a guy out of jail, a heist and the aftermath. Subplot of an ex high school girlfriend.

Total running time was 70 minutes, so about 65 was the movie.

Very good experiment. Moved well and no real dead spots. The love story subplot worked well, although it was accelerated.

Still don't know why Bruce Campbell didn't make it big like Harrison Ford, Clooney or Pitt. Would have made a great Indiana Jones. Would have been perfect for the Oceans movies.

Although this was made in '97, is a good reason for Netflix-like entities to consider movies shorter than 90 minutes. A few, as of late, are out there. So many films feel too long. Likely 'cause I know the formula and want to jump forward, more times than not.
