100-Word Movie Reviews
The Running Man (2025), Director: Edgar Wright The Running Man is an action-packed comedy. It stars Glen Powell as Ben Richards, who I hope merits more starring roles because he is a talented actor. Only, his performance doesn’t save the film, which is an ongoing rollercoaster of repetitive jokes. The signature quick-cut humor and satirical tone of Edgar Wright are present, but he rushes through the social commentary. The action sequences last too long. The fight-in-a-towel scene made me laugh. Apparently, Powell had to film this in cold weather. Michael Cera is the funniest supporting cast member with Powell. I always like a Stephen King movie adaptation.
