Review of The Running Man (1987) by Chip M — 22 May 2014
Some of the main problems that The Running Man runs into is the extremely fast pacing and the extreme lack of character development, plot development, and exposition. Seriously, this could have been a really good movie if the crew focused on these things rather then the full-fledged action you find for the entire duration of the film.
It felt as if this movie was made for thirteen-year olds with very short attention spans. A couple of redeeming qualities are Arnie's acting and his classic one-liners and a really cool head-exploding scene.
That's pretty much it.
