Running from the Guns (originally known as Free Enterprise) is a 1987 Australian crime thriller film directed by John Dixon and starring Jon Blake, Mark Hembrow, Nikki Coghill, Terence Donovan, and Peter Whitford. It is a buddy action film set in Melbourne.[5] [6]
Two friends, Dave and Peter, accidentally pick up the wrong truck at the docks, which contains contraband wanted by some criminals.
Filming took place in late 1985.[2]
The film received poor reviews.[7]
Filmink later said "There’s no reason films like this couldn’t have worked in Australia, this just wasn’t done that well."[8]
