The past few years have been a bit peculiar for me in my own observation of the output of Welcome To The Punch helmer Eran Creevy’s Collide. The film tracked onto screens overseas in 2014 under a different title while Open Road Films eventually picked it up for release a year later.

As such, fast forwarding and what have you after a delayed August 2016 release, a February 24, 2017 is now in tow for the high-speed action thriller starring Mad Max: Fury Road co-star Nicholas Hoult and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story star Felicity Jones as a couple caught in a cat-and-mouse game between two rival crime bosses. Frankly, the process of this film’s roll out feels like a rat race itself, but at least it’s getting the screen treatment it deserves.

SYNOPSIS:

After a heist goes terribly wrong, Casey Stein (Nicholas Hoult) finds himself on the run from a ruthless gang headed by mob boss Hagen (Anthony Hopkins). Now Casey has precious cargo that belongs to Hagen, who will stop at nothing to retrieve it. Left with no choice, Casey calls his former employer and drug smuggler Geran (Ben Kingsley) to protect his long-time girlfriend Juliette before Hagen gets his hands on her. Casey sets out on an adrenaline-fueled car chase on the German highways to save the love of his life before it’s too late.
