Aneesh Chaganty’s Searching proved he was a director-screenwriter worth watching, and Run further establishes him as one of today's most skilled filmmakers from a technical standpoint. He has a clear gift for creating suspense that carries throughout the film. This second movie doesn’t disappoint. The story is exactly the kind of setup I like in thrillers, and Chaganty and Sev Ohanian’s writing includes extended scenes with very tense conversations, surprising twists, and a great deal of suffering—all made even better by a truly remarkable performance from Kiera Allen. She uses her own experience with needing a wheelchair to deliver an authentic portrayal of the everyday difficulties faced by people in similar circumstances. Sarah Paulson keeps up her pattern of playing villainous characters, and I hope she continues down this path of excellent portrayals. Her scenes with Kiera are incredibly charged. While the constant reveals are shocking to the story, many of the plot's turns can be anticipated. The film does have moments that strain believability, which might be a problem for some viewers; it’s likely to be something people will either love or dislike depending on how closely they examine things. I try to be balanced in my opinions, and honestly, I didn't notice those logical issues while watching the movie. Considering Run’s impressive technical aspects—especially Nick Johnson and Will Merrick’s editing and Torin Borrowdale’s score—along with the two leads’ strong performances and its consistently suspenseful feel, I do suggest it to anyone who likes this type of film. Rating: B+
