Review of The Running Man (1987) by Vincent Canby for The New York Times — 19 Aug 2017
Has the manners and the gadgetry of a sci-fi adventure film but is, at heart, an engagingly mean, cruel, nasty, funny send-up of television. It's not quite Network, but then it also doesn't take itself too seriously.
