Capsule Legacy

Midnight Run (1988)

A tightly plotted on-the-run road comedy that’s riotously fun and satisfying. De Niro plays the perfect rough-edged but lovable tough guy, and Grodin makes a brilliant foil. Brilliantly watchable and near-flawless.

Is It Good?

Exceptionally Good (7/8)

Note: This capsule review was originally published elsewhere. If I watch this movie again, I might expand this to a full-length review.
