Overview

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.

In the main, Jaume Collet-Serra is making a character-driven drama about betrayed honor, and the result is a film closer in spirit to the baggage-rich crime novels of Dennis Lehane than dumb multiplex fare.

Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out
Fresh

Run All Night is a taut, edgy affair that features Neeson in peak action form and allows him to partially atone for the indignity of Taken 3.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten

There are more phones than female characters, who spend the movie comatose in hospital beds, fretting silently in the background or being hugged through a doorway

Amy Nicholson, L.A. Weekly
Rotten

With all due respect for Harris's ability to overact even while underacting, and given the hour-plus of citywide demolition, the stakes for the action here are awfully low.

Wesley Morris, Grantland
Fresh

An admirable cat-and-mouse tale that puts forth a lot of cliches and executes them with B-movie intensity.
