Running Time was filmed in Black and White and is the second feature film in history to attempt the technique of one continuous shot.
Carl(Bruce Campbell) launches a full-scale heist to steal mob money from the prison that just released him.
With the enrolled help of his old friend Patrick(Jeremy Roberts) they have a driver and a safecracker.
Carl attempts to carry out the scheme, however everything goes wrong and Carl is forced to make the most important decision of his life.
Great Script from Josh Becker who is also a long time friend of Sam Raimi and the rest of Rami's kliq.
Josh Becker's Directing is right on the money, a great job indeed.
Bruce Campbell gives his best performance ever, he shows how talented of an actor he is.
I give Running Time 9/10
