Friday, 6 February, 2026

Send us a textThis week on Movies Worth Seeing, we crank the dial back to peak ’80s insanity with The Running Man — and honestly, this movie rules.What looks like a dumb, muscle-bound action flick is actually a viciously funny, cynical satire wrapped in neon spandex and one-liners. Game shows, fake news, manufactured villains, and entertainment built on public humiliation — somehow this film feels more relevant now than it did in 1987.We break down:Why this is one of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s most underrated rolesHow the movie balances brutal action with sharp social commentaryThe outrageous villains, practical effects, and iconic killsJesse Ventura, Richard Dawson, and a supporting cast having an absolute blastAnd why The Running Man is pure rewatchable fun that still hits todayIt’s loud, ridiculous, politically incorrect, and unapologetically entertaining — exactly what great ’80s cinema should be.🎬 Movies Worth Seeing — celebrating the classics that knew how to have fun. 💥 Support the show
