The Chainlink

Premium Rush Movie trailer-

Hmmm...don't know how I feel about this one.

 

Synopsis:

Dodging speeding cars, crazed cabbies, open doors, and eight million cranky pedestrians is all in a day's work for Wilee (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), the best of New York's agile and aggressive bicycle messengers. It takes a special breed to ride the fixie -- super lightweight, single-gear bikes with no brakes and riders who are equal part skilled cyclists and suicidal nutcases who risk becoming a smear on the pavement every time they head into traffic.

But a guy who's used to putting his life on the line is about to get more than even he is used to when a routine delivery turns into a life or death chase through the streets of Manhattan. When Wilee picks up his last envelope of the day on a premium rush run, he discovers this package is different. This time, someone is actually trying to kill him.

Quicksilver is a TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE movie. Please, no one rent this. All the cool bike stuff can be seen on youtube for free, without having to fast forward through the shitty acting, shittier plot, and moments of veiled racism.

C'mon, maybe it will be a cult classic later.

 

Or win for best comedy.

"Got no brakes, can't stop don't want to" LOL!

 

I'm waiting for the Sherlock Holmes sequel.

And Mike Shannon (local Chicago actor-guy) makes for a really great villian. I'll be interested to see his take in this movie...

How about One Red Shoe?  Tom Hanks carrying a 2*4*8ft and trying to smash the car's windshield with it.

Mike Shannon gave a criminally overlooked performance in Take Shelter.  Awesome movie.

Guess they didn't realize that the fixie bike craze died more than 5 years ago and that Joseph Gordon Levitt is an awful actor.

We're currently negotiating with thepiratebay.org for the rights to show this at the next Bike Winter Film Fest :-)
