jorstruly 's review for:
The Running Man
by Stephen King
-2 Stars: Plot(?)
I wondered where this one was headed, in the best way. In the last hundred pages, it feels like King didn't know himself. King's political sensibilities and hard opinions hijack the story. An interesting premise, ponderable commentary, that (unfairly) flies in the face of the reader. Nothing really lands in this one. Hope the 2025 adaptation can spin this gold somehow.
