The Running Man
Edgar Wright · 2025 · 133m · Action, Thriller, Science Fiction
"Hunt him down."
Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards is convinced by The Running Man's charming but ruthless producer to enter the deadly competition game as a last resort. But Ben's defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favorite — and a threat to the entire system. As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters, but a nation addicted to watching him fall.
You crave intelligent action that doesn't sacrifice its brain for its brawn, especially if you're a fan of Wright's signature style.
You prefer your dystopian futures grim and humorless, or if the very idea of a game show where people die makes you queasy.
Debating the ethics of streaming services and the price of fame.
