The Runner Ratings & Reviews
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Betty Jo Tucker
Although The Runner may not be easy to watch, it's an exciting cinematic experience.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Not terribly convincing as a cautionary tale, but it does give Mr. Philipponnat the opportunity to emote-or overemote-to an extraordinary degree.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[T]he degree of difficulty and desperation here comes across as more than a bit disingenuous.
PopMatters
Nick Soulsby
The Runner unfurls tantalizingly ambiguous events at a stately place.

Jackie K. Cooper
Average film about teen's drug involvement made a little special by the performance of Cameron Douglas.
We Got This Covered
Martin Carr
This disappointing rites of passage teen angst hybrid is hard work. If not for the presence of Cameron Douglas, son of Michael, combined with Edouard Philipponnat as Aiden, The Runner would be of little interest to anyone.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
More familiar than fresh, this uneven coming-of-age drama feels more contrived than authentic in portraying the perils of the teenage drug trade.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Visually stylish, but often dull, vapid and undercooked. Edouard Philipponnat gives a charismatic performance, though.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Surface-level, slick, and vacant, this drug-centric teen drama deals in spoiled, unlikable characters. As a result, it can't generate any suspense or emotions with its by-the-numbers drug-bust story.

The Runner is without question Danner's best film yet.
