Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta, and Ashley Judd star in Running Scared writer/director Wayne Kramer's harrowing look at life amongst illegal immigrants and the immigration enforcement agents whose job it is to ensure that the U.S. borders remain secure. Every day, a new batch of immigrants comes flooding into Los Angeles in search of the American dream -- and every day the price of that dream rises exponentially. As the desperation of these newcomers continually tests the humanity of Los Angeles immigration enforcement officers, the face of a 21st century L.A. gradually begins to take form. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Not what I expected, but, lots of twists and interaction between the characters... not bad, just not Ford's best.

Chris D.

Too many story lines with not enough cohesive material to guide the viewer made this fairly preachy movie fall to two stars.

A powerful movie that reminds us that immigration reform is not just something to talk about but something that needs to happen. The movie is dark and a sad reminder of how far we have fallen in our care for one another. Not a good date movie.

Surprises in this movie which sounded like it would be a story about Mexicans crossing the border illegally. We hear so much about that it is easy to forget there are others that are illegal immigrants. There was a twisted part with Ray Liotta doing what he does oh so well, playing up his good guy turns to bad guy role. Ford was the tired old agent trying to hide his heart of gold. Good movie, got more than I hoped for.

This did really remind me of the move "Crash" but with the Immigration spin to it. I found it interesting and it does make you think about what your views are and maybe how a situation may look from another point of view. I don't remember this even being advertised to appear in movie theaters. I'm glad I rented it. The draw was initially for the names in it...Judd, Ford and Liotta, rather than the subject, but I'm glad I saw it.

Seeing this movie makes me glad tbat I am an American and that I was born here in the USA. With what is going on in our counrty today I feel that some people have small minds and narrow views.
