Runner, Runner

Poster

Trailer
Rating: C+
Commentary: This is a fine way to take a common poster style and spice it up a bit. It’s not an original design, but the color template is well selected and stylized. 		Rating: B-
Commentary: It’s a premise that feels a touch out of date, but exemplifies the modern attempt to capitalize on the distrust of and inherent dislike of the uber-wealthy who gain their wealthy through duplicitous means. Ben Affleck looks like he’s having fun and Justin Timberlake could be a satisfactory protagonist. The film feels like something we’ve already seen before, but could be fresh enough to be appealing.
