Tonight on GeekNights, we review The Running Man (2025) directed by Edgar Wright. This completes our full tour of the Runnings Man, as we previously reviewed the original Running Man novel from 1982 and the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger Running Man. There are no more men to run. Also look at the difference in mood between the 1987 ending credits and the 2025 ending credits. The latter seem like they're saying something, but I can't quite put my finger on it...
