Movie review - "On the Run" (1981) *1/2

Not a terribly good film and Rod Taylor is not very convincing as a hired killer. Paul Winfield has to spend too much of the movie talking monologues to Beau Cox (admittedly Cox’s character can not speak English, but Winfield seems just silly rabbiting on). Apart from one bright moment when Rod asks Winfield to dig three graves and Winfield realises he wants to kill to Cox, generally the film feels too much like an episode of a television series, and an average one at that
