Ruben Fleischer recommended Midnight Run (1988) in Movies (curated)

 
Midnight Run (1988)
Midnight Run (1988)
1988 | Action, Comedy

"I guess Midnight Run was a big influence on this movie, and it’s a movie I’ve always loved. I just love the combination of Charles Grodin’s dry humour and De Niro in, you know, his funniest ever role. It’s a great combination of action and adventure."

I am 16% through this book and I am going to have to dnf (did not finish) it. I had very high hopes for this book. When I read the description I knew I needed to read it. Charles Manson has always fascinated me. I've always had a morbid obsession with true crime so I was ecstatic when I was approved for this book. Unfortunately this book just wasn't for me. I found the timeline in the book to be weird and a little hard to follow. I've only read Helter Skelter so maybe I needed to have more of a background on Charles Manson to be able to fully follow the story. The other thing that I didn't like was how graphic the details were. Lis Wiehl & Caitlin Rother have a way with putting you in the story. Unfortunately with how graphic this book was, I had to put it down.
