English Summary:
Midnight Run is a 1988 American buddy cop action comedy film directed by Martin Brest and starring Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin. Yaphet Kotto, John Ashton, Dennis Farina, Joe Pantoliano, and Philip Baker Hall play supporting roles.
Bounty hunter Jack Walsh is enlisted by bail bondsman Eddie Moscone to bring accountant Jonathan "The Duke" Mardukas back to Los Angeles. The accountant had embezzled $15 million from Chicago mob boss Jimmy Serrano before skipping on the $450,000 bail Moscone had posted for him. Walsh must bring Mardukas back within five days, or Moscone defaults. Moscone says the job is easy, a "midnight run," but Walsh demands $100,000. Walsh is then approached by FBI Agent Alonzo Mosely, who wants Mardukas to be a witness against Serrano and orders Walsh to keep away from Mardukas. Walsh takes no notice of this and instead steals Mosely's ID, which he uses to pass himself off as an FBI agent along his journey. Serrano's henchmen Tony and Joey offer Walsh $1 million to turn Mardukas over to them, but he turns them down.
Walsh captures Mardukas in New York City and calls Moscone from the airport, not knowing that Moscone's line is tapped by the FBI and that his assistant Jerry is secretly tipping off Serrano's men. However, Mardukas fakes a panic attack on the plane, forcing the two men to travel via train. When Walsh and Mardukas fail to show up in Los Angeles on time, Moscone brings in rival bounty hunter Marvin Dorfler to find them. Dorfler tracks them to the train and attempts to take The Duke from Walsh, but Walsh gets the drop on him and leaves the train. However, he discovers when he attempts to purchase bus tickets with a credit card that Dorfler canceled the card.
The Midnight Run Action Pack was a made-for-TV movie series for Universal Television's Action Pack in 1994. All four movies are available as a DVD set.
Another Midnight Run
Jack Walsh (Christopher McDonald) is still trying to make a living by tracking down skips. It turns out his bail bondsman friend Eddie Moscone (Dan Hedaya) has two jumpers, Bernie Abbot and Helen Bishop, a husband-and-wife con team who have been scamming people wherever they go. Eddie offers Jack $25,000 to go after the husband. He already offered rival bounty hunter Marvin (Ed O'Ross) $20,000 to go after the wife. Jack heads for San Francisco to bring back to husband, but by a chance he tries to bring both in for $45,000. It becomes a tough ride for Jack when he deals with their secret codes and tricks along the way.
The film was released on February 6, 1994.
Midnight Runaround
Jack (McDonald) is heavily in debt and it's his daughter's birthday. He is forced to put his friendship with his boss, Eddie (Hedaya), in peril when Jack takes a job for a rival company. It amounts to a suicide mission: he has to go to Oklahoma for Dale Adder (Kyle Secor), who got in trouble for a DUI in Los Angeles and jumped bail. He is a handsome, young criminal who has a lethal reputation with the ladies. Any bounty hunter who has tried this job didn't come home in one piece. Jack is now faced with a hostile greeting from the locals when they try to prevent him from taking Dale back to Los Angeles. And without a gun, Jack only has one weapon on his side: a really bad attitude.
The film was released on March 15, 1994.
Midnight Run for Your Life

When Vega poses as Lorna's father, he hires Los Angeles bail bondsmen Eddie Moscone (Hedeya) to send a bounty hunter to track her down. Of course, Eddie wants Jack to do the job since he Jack the best at what he does. All Jack has to do is find Lorna and bring her back to Los Angeles alive.
