Film Review - "The Runner"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2026-09-13

Kevin Macdonald's The Runner is the latest in a wave of thrillers in which a hapless protagonist is forced to become an accomplice to a crime, receiving orders from an anonymous villain over the phone. The formula worked quite well in Drop and Carry-On, but crucially, those movies were anchored by lead turns from capable actors in Meghann Fahy and Taron Egerton. Expecting a performer as limited as Gal Gadot to carry a movie on her own is asking for trouble, especially when the script is as shoddy as the one provided here by screenwriter Mark Gibson.
