Midnight Run
1988
****
Director: Martin Brest
Cast: Robert De Niro, Charles Grodin, Dennis Farina, Yaphet Kotto

A wonderfully twisty and entertaining buddie action comedy about a bounty hunter who tries to bring a mob bookkeeper from New York to Los Angeles. The oddly laid-back Robert De Niro and the sarcastic Charles Grodin have great chemistry, and the supporting cast excels as well.
