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.
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.
The film received poor reviews. The Age wrote Dixon "attempts in his new film an amoral, cynical and satirical style of action caper-comedy but never comes within co-ee of achieving it."
Filmink later wrote "thereâÂÂs no reason films like this couldnâÂÂt have worked in Australia, this just wasnâÂÂt done that well."
