The About face: Dax Shepard makes his big screen directorial debut with Hit & Run.

However, the movie crashed and burned at the box office its first day in theaters, coming in at #8 at the movie box office.

The Wild side: The story of Charlie Bronson (Dax Shepard), a former getaway driver who busts out of the Witness Protection Program to drive his girlfriend (Kristen Bell) to Los Angeles so she can land her dream job. Their road trip grows awkwardly complicated, when they are chased by the feds (led by Tom Arnold), and increasingly dangerous, when Charlie’s former gang of criminals (led by Bradley Cooper) enter the fray.
