Run All Night
Synopsis via Letterboxd:
ONE NIGHT TO LIVE. TO DIE. TO RUN.
Brooklyn mobster and prolific hit man Jimmy Conlon has seen better days. Longtime best friend of a mob boss, Jimmy is haunted by the sins of his past—as well as a dogged police detective who’s been one step behind Jimmy for 30 years. But when Jimmy’s estranged son becomes a target, Jimmy must make a choice between the crime family he chose and the real family he abandoned long ago. Now, with nowhere safe to turn, Jimmy has just one night to figure out exactly where his loyalties lie and to see if he can finally make things right.
Somehow I’ve overlooked this movie—with a stacked cast full of some of my favorites—for a long time. I only came upon it because I went down a Brad Ingelsby rabbit hole after finishing Mare of Easton and Task.
It surprised me. Like, a lot.
Now I’m going down a Jaume Collet-Serra and Liam Neeson rabbit hole because it seems like these two really work well together.
