The Running Man

About This Product

In a not-too-distant future, Ben Richards (Glen Powell) was desperate to help his gravely ill infant daughter, and signed on for the hot media phenomenon of the moment: A billion-dollar cash prize game show that required him to spend 30 days successfully dodging highly trained assassins (and anyone else of a mind to) trying to kill him. Edgar Wright's expectedly frenetic and kinetic redo of the Stephen King tale co-stars Josh Brolin, Colman Domingo, Michael Cera, William H. Macy, Lee Pace. 133 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.

Customer Reviews Summary

Dare I say the negative reviews didn’t even see the full film? Because it is dark, dystopian, violent and grim (unless you think it’s normal to have people murdered for your entertainment in the most brutal ways). Maybe film literacy is at an all time low and people are not able to follow a complete story from beginning to end without checking their cell phones these days. Because the film is absolutely awesome and yes Stephen King did officially give his approval as being a truer adaptation of his novel than the original 1987 film.I’m not sure how someone could be a film fan and be bored watching this. If you like sci-fi and action then this is a pretty wild ride that is worth checking out! One of the films in 2025 I felt like I wanted to rewatch immediately after leaving the cinema. Check it out IMO! Well worth a watch or two :)
