About this listen
In this episode, we break down Edgar Wright’s new take on The Running Man—a film pulled between Stephen King’s bleak sci-fi roots and the campy Arnold Schwarzenegger classic from the ’80s. Glen Powell steps up as Ben Richards, Colman Domingo steals every scene he’s in, and the worldbuilding is loaded with sharp little details.
But does the movie juggle satire, drama, and action well enough to really hit? We dig into where Wright’s style shines, where it fades, and why the film ends up feeling stuck between tones.
Final verdict: a solid 7/10—good, entertaining, but not quite running at full speed.
Tune in and let’s talk The Running Man (2025).
