The reviews for Running Man have been very split.  The Telegraph gives it 5* whilst The Independent gives it 2*.  I rate Edgar Wright so will give it a go.

The Drunken Sweaty reckon’s the new Running Man is shite. And if they can’t get a 80’s action pic remake right. (No surprise there.) Then I ain’t wasting time or money on it. Just slam in the DVD. And watch Arnold. Run around in them Retro Adidas tracksuit’s.

My concern is, that it being film with an anti-capitalist theme to it, that they've gone balls out with the Hollywood wokeness in it.

I hope not though.

Can't bring myself to do that. The 80s Running Man film is one of my favourites and I'm certain to really dislike this one, although I understand it's a little more true to the short story. However, without reading about any plot details, in the spirit of modern cinema I am sure the true hero of the piece will be a strong, diverse female.

Will probably try to watch the Running Man this weekend.

Seen a mixture of reviews about it.  I'm not look for a masterpiece, but I enjoyed the original.

Been off sick all week so to kill the boredom I gave some old films a go. 'Unthinkable' (Samuel L Jackson) is very good.

Decent enough but probably about half an hour too long.

I was a bit 'meh' after watching it as well.

It wasn't much of a story.
yeah with so few characters and the same setting, they had plenty of time to tell a better story. 
Loved the book when I was younger. Ain’t watched the film version yet. Will wait until a flight or free on the box.

Prime's film documentary "John Candy: I Like Me" is worth a watch if you were a fan.  Spoilt to an extent by Hollywood types using long words to describe him, why do they do that?  But all in all a decent tribute to a very funny likeable man.
