Guild Reviews
Glen Powell fails to dig deep, film becomes a drag
Donald Trump’s America hews scarily close to the fictional universe of the Running Man, as do other parts of the world, including our own.
n Stephen King’s novella ‘The Running Man’, which came out in 1982, the dystopia felt unreal. King conjured up a staggeringly unequal world, whose rich live in guarded enclaves, the poor are corralled into slums, and a child could easily die of the common flu if her parents cannot afford the drugs.
