Love. Commitment. Responsibility. There’s nothing he can’t run away from.
2008
95 Minutes
Feature, PG-13
Available on DVD
Presented by Picturehouse, this 95 minute romantic comedy is rated PG-13 and stars Simon Pegg, Hank Azaria, Ameet Chana, Dylan Moran, and Thandie Newton. The story line will remind you of the 1979 feature film Running that starred Michael Douglas with a finish that will bring back memories of Joanne Woodward in the 1978 film See How She Runs. The main difference is that this is a comedy that will provide a laundry list of things to not do if you want to run a marathon such as smoking, heavy drinking, taking three weeks to train, having an inexperienced coach, not having race registration, getting new shoes, waking up late on race day, not going your own pace, and falling during the race. Two scenes that did stand out involved a blister and "hitting the wall". Nike plays a prominent role in showing their running shoes and in hosting the featured race at the end of this film.
