Run Man Run

SERGIO SOLLIMA'S 'SPAGHETTI WESTERN' CLASSIC!

The legendary Tomas Milian (FOUR OF THE APOCALYPSE, TRAFFIC) stars as Cuchillo, a knife-throwing thief on the run from murderous bandits, sadistic American agents, his hot-blooded fiance (Chelo Alonso) and a sheriff turned bounty hunter (Donal OBrien), all of whom are gunning for a hidden fortune in gold that could finance the Mexican Revolution.

Co-writer/director Sergio Sollima (REVOLVER, VIOLENT CITY) packs this epic Western with bold politics, shocking violence, bravura performances (including John Ireland as General Santillana) and a brilliant score by Bruno Nicolai and Ennio Morricone. RUN MAN RUN has been fully restored from original vault materials and is now presented uncut and uncensored for the first time ever in America.

hands down the best Spaghetti Western I've ever seen. Great acting by all the leads, often stunning camera work, and gorgeous panoramas. Well writen, extremely entertaining. There is alot going on in this movie. I'm not even going to try to get into it all. One scene that jumps out (and alot of them do!) is our erstwhile hero has been captured and is tied to one wing of a windmill out in the middle of nowhere. He is being tortured into giving up the location of the gold hoarded by the revolution as finance. The bad guy is smacking him in the face when the windmill arm he is on has rotated close to the ground, so its round round round SMACK round round round SMACK, and at some point they mounted a camera to the arm of the windmill so you get a CRAZY cool shot from his point of view as he spins around, and eventually he is able to work and arm free and latch on to the bad guys throat, so BOTH of them are now spinning around. Just stunning. I was vastly impressed with this one, Id watch this again. its a good one. And if you like weesterns, its simply a great one.
