Robert DeNiro wanted to do a comedy, and back in 1988, Midnight Run was as close as he got. Audiences needn’t worry, the movie still managed to squeak out a body count amidst the laughs. Yes, Midnight Run was a hit. The combination of Charles Grodin and DeNiro charmed moviegoers thanks to its quotable script, movie star chemistry, and inevitable friendship at the center of all the action. But now, decades (and so many buddy road trip movies) later, does this f-bomb laden chase still hold up? Is DeNiro funny? Is Grodin miscast? And were these grumpy guys ever in real danger? The Old Roommates inspect their twenty-dollar bills and revisit it all through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
