Hit and Run has a bouncy, goofy charm.
- CJ Johnson, ABC Radio (Australia), December 04, 2012
It's amiable, but the more miles it clocks up, the more this film looks like a vanity vehicle for its co-director, writer and star, Dax Shepard.
- Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK], October 11, 2012
Shepard's script suggests his chief pleasures in life are driving sports cars and joshing about homosexuals, and those of a similar mindset may manage to wring out more amusement from his film than I did.
- Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph, October 11, 2012
There's the suggestion of a good comedy filmmaker here, but in trying out too many genres in one film Shepard winds up with something that never settles or fully engages.
- Olly Richards, Empire Magazine, October 07, 2012
The wafer-thin story...is little more than an excuse for a series of nifty chase sequences and comic interludes, all mounted with the kind of fizzy enthusiasm essential for an inconsequential, enjoyable road movie lark to work.
- Jim Schembri, 3AW, September 07, 2012
Dax Shephard has a really attractive presence on screen and he's terrific in this.
- Margaret Pomeranz, At the Movies (Australia), September 06, 2012
In Hit & Run the talk is better than the torque.
- Craig Mathieson, The Sunday Age, September 06, 2012
Hit and Run sets out to be crass and compassionate by turns, but Shepard's inexperience as a writer is obvious throughout: the structure is as wobbly as the tone.
- Jake Wilson, The Age (Australia), September 06, 2012
Normally it'd be an insult to say the most interesting thing about a movie is one of the actor's do's, but seriously, you've got to see this thing sitting on Cooper's head.
- Simon Miraudo, Quickflix, September 03, 2012
Constantly catching us by surprise and endlessly tickling our sense of humour, Hit and Run is one of this year's hits - so run and see it
- Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinefile, September 01, 2012
This wacky, vibrant film has HIT written all over it and the talented Shepard manages to makes it fresh; a little like the first Hangover film, leaving us with nothing but a broad smile and a lust for life
- Louise Keller, Urban Cinefile, September 01, 2012
The worst.
- Richard Roeper, Richard Roeper.com, August 30, 2012
Hit & Run as a whole is one of the summer's most enjoyable surprises, a consistently disarming romantic comedy...
- Glenn Kenny, MSN Movies, August 27, 2012
Hit & Run is awfully hit & miss.
- Rick Groen, Globe and Mail, August 24, 2012
Shepard and Palmer just don't do anything terribly exciting with the film's vehicles, drawn mostly from Shepard's personal collection.
- Lou Lumenick, New York Post, August 24, 2012
It feels like writer, co-director and star Dax Shepard has unleashed some kind of freakish Franken-film on movie-goers.
- Stephanie Merry, Washington Post, August 24, 2012
Hit and Run lures you in with its jackalope rhythms. There's nothing else like it on the current landscape.
- Stephanie Zacharek, NPR, August 23, 2012
This is neither funny nor suspenseful, but it does feature some cool-looking cars, and Tom Arnold delivers some decent pratfalls as an accident-prone man.
- Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader, August 23, 2012
The trouble with Hit & Run is that it can't sustain its trippy effervescence. Despite a few scrappy twists and turns, it's ultimately a dead end.
- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone, August 23, 2012
This whipsmart postmodern rom-com caper rides a fine line between road - and date - movie.
- Anton Bitel, Little White Lies, October 11, 2012
