Carlos Aguilar TheWrap Unequivocally a message-pushing drama, but one with a subtler touch and more artistic merit than many of its thematically linked predecessors. Feb 23, 2019 Full Review Christy Lemire RogerEbert.com Run the Race has enough of a shaggy, low-key likability that it makes you wish it were better. Rated: 2/4 Feb 22, 2019 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times "Run the Race" lacks the specificity that would make it feel real to the audience. Feb 22, 2019 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times "Run the Race" won't convert any nonbelievers, or even spark a "Hmmm!" type of fleeting insight into the nature of faith, but for Christian faith-based families, it'll be quite satisfying. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Alci Rengifo Entertainment Voice It's a sincere work, even if we remain unconverted. Mar 1, 2019 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Warm, wise and wonderful. Rated: 9/10 Feb 26, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

timmy t Good movie. The acting isnt great but isnt bad for a christian film. Besides that fantastic movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Carla G S Predictable, corny and cheesy. Story has been told many times. Zach's hair was always in the way and all the Bible speak was over the top. Happy for him tho. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Ronan M Great movie with an excellent message of spiritual growth and coming back from hard times. Can tell the Critics don't like Christian messages of growth, love, forgiveness, and faith against the world. But thankfully this movie is not for them, it is for people who like those stories. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/23 Full Review Bart P This movie took some unexpected turns but was excellent overall. Tanner Stine and Evan Hofer gave stellar performances. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Inspiring! Real, and family movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review bob c Okay movie, if you don't mind religion rammed down your throat Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
