This is the worst movie I’ve ever seen. It makes Emilia Perez look like Citizen Kane

Would probably respect some of the genuinely bizarre hyper-active camerawork (shoutout Anthony Dod Mantle) and soundtrack choices with any other lead. But this is one of those claustrophobic thriller concepts a la Phone Booth or Red Eye that hinges heavily on the…

1.5/10 Gal Gadot running for 86 minutes. Look, I don’t think Gal Gadot is a good actress but this is especially bad. This movie is similar to Taken but if it was painfully boring. At least this movie had the respect to keep it 86 minutes. I don’t understand why the mysterious antagonist went…

I genuinely feel bad for Gal Gadot doing this movie. Because she is so bad in it and she’s just running the entire time and they really could’ve gotten anyone else to play the role and this movie likely would’ve been just as bad but at least Gal Gadot wouldn’t have had to try and act while running…

The Runner

Start felt promising, but it didn’t build much. Glad that the length was brief but the premise didn’t allow for much twist or turns to keep the audience on their toes, and gal gadot is really not that convincing. Fast paced enough to keep me watching till the end but that’s it.

It's like Mercy meets The Long Walk meets Taken. Now yes, i understand that the bomb isnt technically a law of chekhov's gun...but the fact that it was even in play breaks what the movie is trying to do. Don't know why he didn't use that from the get go Gal Gadot was great tho

The Runner

A standard kidnap thriller with a decent twist, entertaining without ever being great. It made me feel like everyone in London are annoyed all the time 😂 . Predictable in parts, but solid enough. Glad someone finally asks her about the cut above her eye. 6.5/10

This differently had the suspense in it some parts differently gave me anxiety, idk how she did it she ran the whole movie a morning run turned into an all-day run literally and I knew she had a plan to out smart the kidnapper

Trash movie fr! My dad made me watch it thinking it would be Runner 2026, but that comes out next week. Movie is trash, plot sucks, idea sucks, acting sucks, just trash all around

The Womacks is "meh" on

The Runner

It had some element that would have worked in any other thriller setting. Gal Gadot has one scene that was good but the main villain carried the slop fest on his back 4/10

Edward Kronkvist is "meh" on

The Runner

Mediocre film with a cool concept. But the overall movie was a bit anti climactic. Overall it had potential to be a great film but the execution wasn’t entirely there.
