The government pacifies the populace by broadcasting a number of game shows in which convicted criminals fight for their lives, including the gladiator-style The Running Man, hosted by the ruthless Damon Killian, where “runners” attempt to evade “stalkers” and certain death for a chance to be pardoned and set free.

Movies focusing on a certain martial arts or similar tend to be dull, full of clichés and predictable. Freerunner (2011) is no exception: running for life, remote destruction devices, individualism vs. teamwork, naive sportsmen vs. evil moneymakers etc have been used dozens of times before (and I am sure will be used in the future as well). The ending is also trivial, preceded by several speedily accumulative scenes, not providing any value to the movie.Acting is mediocre or even terrible, especially the blond announcer and those billionaires annoyingly appearing on screens.Well, the movie is for you if you are keen on parkour, inexpressive dudes and flickering cameras. For a decent free-running movie, watch Luc Besson's District 13 instead.

The characters in Freerunner are an environmentalist's delight. They zip from place to place in the city, using only their legs! Yes, no fuel, no harmful gases, no pollution. But those who have watched this move would have felt some pollution could have been risked by dumping these guys(no offense to the actors) in a car(tied to a 100 kiloton steel ball) and pushing it off a bridge :p All those prancing off walls, windows, restaurant tables & vehicles gave me a little headache after a while. Me thinks, freerunning is good to watch as a documentary, not in a movie with silly plot & characters.Sean Farris as Ryan does a neat job but he's more of a physical actor than mental, if you know what I mean. As long as he gets action roles, his life in Hollywood should go just fine :) Amanda Fuller as Dalores(Ryan's girlfriend) was duh in acting but damn! in shape ;) Some other actors like Ryan Doyle as Finch(Ryan's biggest competitor), Tamer Hassan as the free runners' greedy manager and Danny Dyer as the psychotic businessman Mr.Frank(making millions out of the lives of the free runners) are good but all their efforts were finally for nothing really.Any good deeds? Yeah, some of those cartwheeling, long jumps, high jumps...that they call freerunning. But many scenes later, you get tired and want to arrest them for public viewing nuisance charges.Verdict: The last I heard, the producers are now wanted felons for having made this movie. Free runners, get them :p

These reviews are awesome, almost as entertaining as the movie! And you know what - they're right! This movie blows!! Me away!! You have to see it to believe it and I'm telling you, you won't be sorry. It's so entertaining even if it's not intentional. It's everything the cruddy reviews say and more and I love it!! I want to host my my own Mystery Science Theater 3000 in my backyard with this movie, and have people shout out the ridiculous dialogue not to mention the psychotic accents from where is the lead girl from!!!?? Russia? Israel? Borneo?? So these explosive collars by the way, where did they get these at PetCo? And the explosions and the Texan rich dude with the George W. accent "their heads look like exploding watermelons". Or when the blonde flashes her ta-tas at the soon to be dead freerunners: "these are the last ones you'll ever see" and the nerd freerunner goes: "and the first!" Come on people that's so bad it's good. And the action is pretty non-stop after the snooze fest but still hilarious opening. And the freerunning is, well it's not good, but then it sort of is, but filmed horribly! These guys tried to make 2 million dollars look like 100 million and they made it look like 2 dollars. Still, I don't care - I seriously love this movie!! 8 stars. What can I say, I was pretty drunk when I saw this, maybe that helped.

Films come and go this film has gone,I was in stitches badly filmed ,badly acted and what could have been a good script never surfaced the only good parts of the film was the English guy in the hat lol. IMDb ratings went astray with this one same as Drive with hints of Running Man. What am i saying this was Running man for 2011 if you like a laugh and have 90mins to waste it's worth £3 of anyones money in the reduced bin at blockbusters Danny dyer does his best but with a bad lines he drowns. Sean Faris plays a competent role but i looked at him and thought it was a young Tom Cruise and that thought stuck with me through the film Weird!!! The Film should be available at all good Car Boot sales soon. lol :)
