The Runnin' Kind

About This Movie

The Runnin' Kind is an interesting blend of comedy and drama that captures the journey of a privileged kid breaking away from his preordained path. Joey, the protagonist, is like many young adults trapped in the expectations of family legacy, but his spark comes from a rock drummer who really shakes things up. The pacing has its moments of lulls, but it fits the vibe of the late '80s perfectly. The film has a laid-back atmosphere, with some great performances from the band members that really bring a sense of authenticity. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the characters' growth and the music that drives their passions. Overall, it’s a bit of a hidden gem that showcases the era's youthful rebellion.
