About this listen
This week I’m diving into Edgar Wright’s bold new take on The Running Man — a dystopian thriller where entertainment, politics, and survival collide.
Glen Powell leads a strong ensemble as we explore a near-future America run by corporate networks, where reality TV controls the masses and a deadly game show offers one desperate man a final chance. Wright blends satire, action and social commentary with nods to Verhoeven classics, creating a world that feels slick, unreal… and unsettlingly familiar.
In this spoiler-free review, I look at the themes, performances, humour, and the ways this remake steps out of the shadow of the 80s original.
