Hunt Him Down.
Review written by Jack Aling
The Running Man is directed by Edgar Wright and written by Edgar Wright and Michael Bacall.
Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards enters a deadly televised competition as a last resort. His defiance turns him into an unexpected fan favourite — and a threat to the entire system.
The Running Man is excessive, bold and unafraid.
Further proof that Glen Powell is the perfect blend of leading man, Edgar Wright's latest is as inventive as usual, but there's restraint throughout despite the acts of rebellion on screen.
Does it all work? Tune in to find out...
