Critic Reviews of "The Runner"
Time OutNovember 02, 2015Everyone loves Nicolas Cage the bug-eyed lunatic. Nicolas Cage the serious actor, that's a tougher sell.
Chicago Sun-TimesAugust 27, 2015The Runner never approaches the keen insight and social satire of political films such as The Candidate, Primary Colors or Bulworth.
Hollywood ReporterAugust 07, 2015Stark repeatedly squanders the decent supporting cast, revealing scant backstory that would enhance the often vague character motivation on display.
RogerEbert.comAugust 07, 2015These plot elements, and the actors, have all the makings of a truly juicy and thought-provoking political melodrama. So it's dispiriting to see filmmaker Stark create such a weird, jagged hash out of them.
Seattle TimesAugust 06, 2015Cage's performance is as fuzzy as his character's sense of bearings.
Los Angeles TimesAugust 06, 2015A hollow, listless political drama that could have been a contender.
Cairo360April 05, 2016Despite its potentially juicy political premise and Nic Cage's relatively solid performance - more on that later - Austin Stark's The Runner ends up being a poor-man's version of politically-charged TV shows such as House of Cards and Scandal.
Radio TimesNovember 05, 2015Although first-time writer/director Austin Stark has his heart in the right place and Cage eschews his trademark zaniness, it's only watchable rather than gripping.
Common Sense MediaSeptember 11, 2015Slow-moving political drama has strong language, some sex.
Consequence of SoundSeptember 02, 2015Equal parts Big Oil message movie and melodramatic character study, The Runner gets so close to depth that it's weirdly frustrating to see it fail.
Cinemalogue.comAugust 21, 2015... contains a fair amount of cynicism toward media sensationalism and the political system, yet by always focusing on the politicians instead of the working-class Gulf Coast residents ... the film indulges in that which it condemns.
