It is hard to come up with a genuinely
interesting and never-a-dull-moment script centered around the all-too-familiar
New York, and car chases. So, Director David Koepp changed the game – and
speeded up things by making them slower – on bicycle, in fact. Profiling the best-in-class
NY bicycle messenger Wilee (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), on a Premium Rush – a
high-priority dispatch – with a little help from girlfriend Vanessa (Dania
Ramirez) and arch rival Marco (Sean Kennedy), Wilee outruns everything in sight
– cars, people, other bicycles, and even stationary objects – as he helps one
Chinese student Nima (Jamie Chung) re-unite with her daughter. Get ready for an
unexpected rush from this under-rated movie
