Product Description
Jack Walsh (Robert De Niro) is a tough ex-cop turned bounty hunter. Jonathan "The Duke" Mardukas (Charles Grodin) is a sensitive accountant who embezzled $15 million from the mob, gave it to charity and then jumped bail. Jack's in for a cool $100,000 if he can deliver The Duke from New York to L.A. on time…and alive. Sounds like just another Midnight Run (a piece of cake in bounty hunter slang), but it turns into a cross-country chase. The FBI wants The Duke to testify, the mob wants him for revenge, and Walsh wants him to just shut up. If someone else doesn't do the job, the two unlikely partners may end up killing each other in this hilarious, action-filled ride from producer/director Martin Brest (Beverly Hills Cop).

- Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2016BOTTOM LINE: MIDNIGHT RUN is a non-stop comedic cross country chase film, taking us from New York to the Chicago suburbs, thru the back country of Arizona, and finally the glitz & glamour of Las Vegas. If you like smartly written comedy, lots of action or are fan of either of the two stars then this Blu-ray is a must-own. Only real 'downside' is the harsh language, (for those with young kids and/or an aversion to cursing). Wonderful on-screen rivalry & chemistry between the two leads. Big bellylaughs + excellent action = a high replay value. 5 STARS
THE STORY (contains spoilers): De Niro plays Jack Walsh, a former cop now making a living as a bounty hunter, but looking to get out of the business and retire. He sees an opportunity to do just that with his latest assignment: the apprehension & return of Jonathan "The Duke" Mardukas (a perfectly cast Charles Grodin), a former mob accountant who jumped bail and is worth a cool $100,000 to Jack IF the man can be brought back before his bond defaults. For a man of Walsh's skills, finding "The Duke" is easy... returning him on time and in one piece is another matter altogether because brutish Vegas mobster Jimmy Serrano, (the Duke's former employer, who also has a complicated past with De Niro's Walsh), wants Mardukas torpedoed for what he did and for what he knows about Serrano's operations. On top of that, the Feds will do anything to capture Mardukas because his invaluable testimony would send Serrano & his goons up the river for good. This job will set Walsh up for the rest of his life... or end it.
THOUGHTS: Prior to this film, who knew Robert De Niro was so damn funny? MIDNIGHT RUN helped launch a second career for the well-established big screen tough guy, whose previous work always seemed to be lethal mafioso-types and/or creepy heavies. Ultra-dry Charles Grodin proves to be the the pitch perfect foil for the gruff, loutish De Niro, who also receives occasional visits from FBI Agent Alonso Mosely (an eternally frustrated Yaphett Kotto). Mob boss Jimmy Serrano (Dennis Farina), has perhaps the two stupidest flunkies this side of Moe Howard; both of whom spend the entire film's running time bungling one assassination attempt after another on Walsh & The Duke. Also figuring heavily in the plot is Joe Pantoliano, as weaselly, apoplectic bail-bondsman Eddie Mascone. Lastly, we can't forget Eddie's back-up bounty hunter, the not quite so bright Marvin Dorfler, wonderfully underplayed by John Ashton (Beverly Hills Cop). Terrific casting, excellent acting all around and a smart script to work from make this film a delight to watch. Honestly you could just watch De Niro & Grodin sitting around talking for the whole film and it would still be entertaining. They play off each other that well. Too bad they didn't do more films together. Additionally, when the two aren't at each other's throats they're caught up in some pretty terrific big screen action sequences that are energetic, logical within the context of the story and very well staged, with more than enough explosions, shootouts and car chases to satisfy even hardcore 80's action junkies.
THE BLU-RAY: For this new hi-def release from Shout!Factory the film received a 2k scan from the film's interpositive element. Resultant audio & video are both pretty strong BUT there is noticeable crush (video noise), and some pixelation in low light scenes. Not enough to detract from owning this, but you should be aware. Audio is clear, clean and mostly level. The Blu-ray comes loaded with some decent extras, including new individual on-camera interviews with most of the main cast, a vintage "Making of" featurette and a copy of the film's theatrical trailer. All-in-all a very respectable release that should please MIDNIGHT RUN fans, of which I am one.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2014This is a surprisingly little known, brilliant, intelligent comedy about numerous criminals, two bounty hunters, one accountant and one FBI agent. It is also about cigarettes, sunglasses, aviaphobia, counterfeited money and real money. To say long things short, this is a MASTERPIECE of humour!
Bounty hunter Jack Walsh (Robert De Niro) is enlisted by a bail bondsman to bring accountant Jonathan "The Duke" Mardukas (Charles Grodin) back to Los Angeles. Mardukas supposedly stole $15 million from Chicago mob boss Jimmy Serrano (Denis Farina) before skipping the $450,000 bail that was posted for him. If Jack can bring Mardukas in during the next five days, he will get $100 000. But Mardukas is also being tracked by another bounty hunter, a brutish and mean but slightly dim guy named Marvin (John Ashton). Mob boss Jimmy Serrano and FBI agent Alonso Mosley (grandiose Yaphet Kotto) want the renegade accountant too...
What follows is a brilliant comedy which takes us on 126 minutes long the incredibly entertaining odyssey through of most of continental Unites States by almost every way of travelling that is humanely possible. During all this time the seemingly defenseless and harmless Mardukas will submit the seemingly tough like nails bounty hunter Jack Walsh to a treatment which can only be described as psychological waterboarding - there will be moments when the poor bounty hunter will WISH to be dead!
Locked in a mutually abusive relationship, Walsh and Mardukas will also have to run from the hired killers, the FBI agents and last but not least from Marvin, who, albeit not very bright, will still manage to make their life very interesting in numerous occasions...
I saw this film at least six times and every time I loved it even more, as I still discover some new jokes and goofs at every viewing. The number of gags, both verbal and situational, is purely unbelievable and Robert De Niro and professional comedian Charles Grodin are simply UNBELIEVABLY GREAT! This film has also considerable charm, is quite heart-warming, never really sounds vulgar even if there is some strong language and finally, the ending is particularly good.
I must admit that towards the end I grew very fond of ALMOST ALL the characters (including some of the mobsters!) and I was really sorry when this film ended - but in this time the obsession with sequels was not as strong as today and, Praised Be The Lord, nobody even tried to make a "Midnight Run 2".
Bottom line, this is an EXCELLENT film, one of my absolutely favourite modern comedies. To buy, watch, keep and re-watch. Enjoy!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2023Old Classic in 4K...a gem. Shout Factory, Scream productions, etc are making Bank remastering these older classics on 4k. Many of these are not on streaming, plus with Physical media (Discs), no one can take it from you, it's yours forever, no internet required. You only buy a license to watch digital media...it can disappear with the click of a button anywhere in the world. Xbox and PS5 are the ultimate 4k players...get one with the disc drive while you still can....you can play everything from CD, DVD, BLURAY and 4kK on them...plus Great Games, Sirius/XM, Streaming TV...a Win, Win, WinThe big studios really missed out. Midnight Run is a true classic, fun, easy watch, action, lots of older actors before they made it big. BTW, I absolutely hate Robert De Niro...he is a serious idiot and a hole...However, he is a good actor. Charles Groden gives the performance of his career. I can watch this with my family over and over. A true forgotten gem....
- Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2025Ok the plot is good. I’m not a Deniero fan but his character is not a mobster in this thankfully. Grodin is classic and better here than in Dave. It moves. Just fun to pull out once in a while.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2020I loved this film. Great fun and action. However the bonus features are limited and dated. Seems like repurposed marketing material.
I watched this on a 4k projector on a 120' screen. The image has a nice lawyer of film grain but the transfer can look soft in some scenes. If your watching it on a smaller TV, i'm sure the image will be very sharp. But blown up so large on my screen, the flaws get magnified.

I. GilesReviewed in the United Kingdom on September 24, 20165.0 out of 5 stars This Blu-ray option should be very tempting and rewarding for all those supporters of this very popular film
This 1988 film is without obvious parallel being an unusual combination of an action movie, a comedy movie and a buddy movie where the buddies are essentially on the opposite sides. The script is slick and tight and this is matched by the cast with snappy lines frequently delivered with deadpan manner which heightens their comic effect. Much depends on the casting of course, and in this the choices are spot-on. Interestingly. even when the events spiral out into almost surrealistic fantasy the film is easily able to carry the viewers with it.
This is a very engaging film which easily copes with repeated viewing and that is reflected in its long-term popularity and the option of a Blu-ray choice for purchasers. However, this review is not intended to discuss the merits and demerits of the actual film as by now it will have both its supporters and detractors. Entering into those conflicts is not the purpose of the review which is aimed squarely at the many supporters of this film.
Essentially, for all of those who are keen supporters of this film and who have bought the previous DVD version of this disc, the only issue of vital importance will be whether the Blu-ray offers an improvement technically sufficient to justify the additional expense.
For this reviewer the answer is a clear affirmative. The upgrade offers a clear advance on both image and audio quality with the imaging being a marked improvement. The colours are firmer and there is an increase to the perceived depth of the imaging. The whole film simply becomes more 'real.' The film, which is so concerned with close characterisation, benefits considerably from this enhancement of reality. The action elements are equally vivid and enhanced accordingly.
The degree of improvement experienced from this BD will also inevitably depend on the replay equipment used. The following technical information is intended to be a guide to aid in assessment.
The screen used for this review is only of moderate dimensions being a 40 inch television screen. However, the television is a high performing 4K unit which delivers a compensating positive effect. The moderate screen size lacks the impact of larger screens but is less critical of film faults.
However, the contributing player is, unusually, able to separate the audio and visual HDMI signals before they leave separately to the television and pre-amp. That feature enhances both the visual and audio elements of the output. The audio delivers an unusually wide-ranging and revealing performance. Its precision is equally revealing of dialogue and action sequences.
Readers with alternative equipment will have to interpret this review bearing in mind their own equipment and its comparative advantages and disadvantages.
The disc offers purchasers with suitable replay equipment a substantial improvement over the previous DVD.
In summary this BD is a transfer from good quality 1988 film stock and has responded well to the upgrade and well worth considering. This Blu-ray option should be very tempting and rewarding for all those supporters of this very popular film.

JordanReviewed in Canada on April 26, 20255.0 out of 5 stars Amazing quality.Make it fast shipping.After a failed first attempt.
Amazing delivery. And when I got a copy that was bad and crushed and looked like somebody's dog ate it. They sent another one with swift perpetuity and dealt with me really decently over the phone overall, I am satisfied and the product look amazing in 4K. This is a well worth buying movie. If you're into 4K or into collecting, or even the fact that it's a shout, select and it's number 3, it's amazing And it's, i'm glad it all worked out. I would definitely refer somebody to get this movie from here
