The Running Man

Watched this last night.


The film itself was a pretty good ride, and I think it's a more faithful representation of the book (note that i have read it). But I’m a child of the 80s, and subconsciously I love the over-the-top Arnie version with its wild action and classic 90s cheese. So there’s an obvious comparison, and I feel the Arnie one is a slightly better movie.


I’d give the 2025 version a 7, and the old one a 7.5.

Definitely worth a watch then? Does it tick the fun action movie, disengage most of brain and enjoy it category?
 
Has anyone watched this? I wont have a chance unfortunately until next week?

Edit - sorry just seen @adencool review.
