It's a race against time in another summer action flick. But no caped crusaders or robotic machines battling evil in this movie. This time it's just a guy and his bike. Sounds pretty nonchalant doesn't it? But when you combine the busy streets of New York City, fancy bicycle stunts, and hot up and coming A-lister Joseph Gordon-Levitt (The Dark Knight Rises, Inception), you can't help but have a recipe for action-charged entertainment.

Who would think you could get high-impact action from riding a bike? Well, that's just what happens in Premium Rush with Levitt starring as Wilee, a law school dropout turned bicycle messenger. He spends his day zipping through Manhattan making special deliveries on his bike. Mayhem ensues when Wilee, while on a delivery finds himself being pursued by two NYPD officers, one of which is corrupt. It's not only deadly deliveries that have Wilee preoccupied. He also has to cope with a girlfriend (Dania Ramirez) who is in dismay over his recklessness and a competing bicycle messenger (Wolé Parks) who is out to get his girl and his job.
But, what makes the movie a must-watch is Levitt's good acting, visual effects that gives the movie a fresh look, and death defying bicycle stunts that will take you on the ride of your life. "Premium Rush" is sure to keep you teetering on the edge of your seat.
