Alexandra Heller-Nicholas ABC Radio (Australia) Taut, compelling and with just the right scale and intensity to keep us engrossed without ever going too far over the top and collapsing into camp. Rated: 4/5 Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Tim Grierson Screen International A campy thriller that pits [a woman] against her disabled teenage daughter in a battle of wits that isn't quite sharp enough. Feb 21, 2021 Full Review David Fear Rolling Stone Paulson will be fine after this misstep. Ditto Allen, who could not be a more appealing lead or a resourceful damsel-in-distress. Rated: 2/5 Dec 17, 2020 Full Review Zoë Rose Bryant Loud and Clear Reviews Run is a riveting rollercoaster ride from start to finish, pairing a pulse-pounding plot with powerhouse performances from Sarah Paulson and Kiera Allen. Rated: 4/5 Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies “Run” is a sneakily absorbing thriller that pokes at the idea of a mother’s domineering love and a child’s blind trust. Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 25, 2022 Full Review Dan Bayer Next Best Picture You pretty much know where “Run” is going to go, but it gets there in the most entertaining way possible. Rated: 8/10 May 13, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeffrey P It doesn’t reinvent the genre or offer any thing new, but it manages to captivate and entertain. Fans of horror should be able to find enough to enjoy with there being similarities to many other films of the genre. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/14/24 Full Review Dylanimus K I have no clue what the other critics are talking about by giving this movie such a high rating... It is baffling to the mind. I figured out the plot and conclusion of the movie within its first two minutes! I am not even exaggerating, it is that predictable. The actors are fine but the writing, pace and overall plot are horribly contrived, predictable and boring!!! The script gives away wayyyy too much from the get go and it is outed so early that its hard to elevate the stakes so early in the film. In fact, it is so bad that I think maybe there was a miscommunication in the post-editing portion because the lead gets upset about something later in the film that should be considered trivial in comparison to other more intense occurences that happen earlier. Many things happen in the movie that illogical and only happen because the script said so. Instead of finding more imaginative ways of demonstrating how or why something occurs it simply just happens as a what a coincidence moment. The movie is comparable to the classic Misery in terms of its overall plot but is soooooooo bad in every other aspect in its execution. There is no pace, no mystery. You can figure it out within the first few scenes. Trust me, save yourself the time and just watch misery with Kathy Bates. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/17/24 Full Review Fake N Great film up until the end I felt like it ruined it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Jenna T This movie gave me a different feeling of fear. It wasn’t the same fear you feel when you watch a movie about monsters or ghosts, it’s a completely different type of fear Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/06/24 Full Review Freak W Mild Spoilers:---Good film. I think Chaganty is going to make some gems if he keeps the same values he's expressed on YT and other outlets. I would love to ask him, though, what did I miss about the deep scars on Diane's back that looked almost like a pentagram(ish)? And why did she look so old in prison, where she was bedridden? Seven years passed, and she looked like it was twenty. When she was in the hospital, and it fast-forwarded nearly twenty years, she looked like she hadn't aged a day. It just felt like there was a little something more than we seem to have seen. Anyway, go watch it! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/24/24 Full Review Audience Member Increasingly tense with some truly unsettling shots sprinkled within, Run is propelled along by two stellar performances that greatly sell the unease and hopelessness presented by the films premise. Although I found myself predicting several plot points early on in the film, I was not prepared for how explosive the climax was or the righteous wickedness of the protagonists final actions in the film. This film was a proper thriller that had me leaning forward in my seat throughout the majority of its run time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
