Edgar Wright’s latest project marks his first time adapting a book into a film, and it’s not what we hoped for. The Running Man is adapted from Stephen King’s novel of the same name and is the second time the story has been on the big screen, the first starring Arnold Schwarzenegger (who gets a fun “cameo” in this version). Wright, working with his Scott Pilgrim vs. the World collaborator Michael Bacall, stays closer to the novel than the original adaptation, but unfortunately, the story doesn’t receive the treatment it deserves.
