I remember the film of the same name from 1986 starring Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, and River Phoenix. I don't recall the 1986 film dealing with running from the US gov't but the debris from a boat capsizing making Ford's brilliant but paranoid character assume that the world had finally come to an end. I wonder which one holds more trawl to the book.

I’m getting a strong Ozark vibe from that trailer.
