'Premium Rush' -- 3 1/2 stars

<b>PG-13; 1:31 running time</b><br><Br>
A Columbia University law school graduate, Wilee's a rebel, uninterested in any cubicle-based employment.

Inside the envelope is a marker for a considerable amount of money. A dirty cop with heavy gambling debts, portrayed with relish by Michael Shannon, has his reasons to intercept the delivery. -- Michael Phillips<br><Br>Read the full <a href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/movies/sc-mov-0821-premium-rush-20120823,0,4846240.column">"Premium Rush" movie review</a>
