There’s something unnatural, even sinister about the relationship between Chloe (Kiera Allen) and her mom, Diane (Sarah Paulson). Diane has raised her daughter in total isolation, controlling every move she’s made since birth, and there are secrets ... [+]

	Author	Review
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Despite a script (by Chaganty and Sev Ohanian) that sees no need to flavor its tension with flashbacks or character-fleshing, 'Run' has fun with its ludicrous plot."	POS
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A delicious Hitchcockian thriller (...) Dueling excellent performances from a deranged Sarah Paulson and spunky newcomer Kiera Allen (...) make it hard to look away from the screen"	POS
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"'Run' is well-crafted and a highly entertaining thriller that’ll keep you hooked from beginning to end. It’s well shot and edited, and grounded by two fantastic leading ladies (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Michael Ordoña Los Angeles Times	"Paulson has always been a smart, versatile actress, and she gets to show all the colors of a fractured rainbow here (...) [The script rewards] viewers with one of the better endings of a movie this year"	POS
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"It’s not subtle, mind you, but in the scheme of campy Paulson performances, this one registers as more nuanced, allowing Chaganty to get away with maintaining the mystery for longer"	POS
United States	Ryan Lattanzio IndieWire	"[The] screenplay hits repetitive beats (...) but there’s enough go-for-broke and whiplash-inducing shifts in tone on display to suggest this filmmaking duo [Chaganty and Ohanian] has a future"	NEU
United States	Drew Tinnin Dread Central	"Sarah Paulson, as usual, is the reason to watch this often thrilling, sometimes generic Hulu Original (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Jared Mobarak The Film Stage	"Things become so densely atmospheric so fast that you almost don’t have time to look for the strings behind the action"	POS
United States	Alison Willmore Vulture	"Whenever Paulson is on screen, she gives 'Run' a much-needed jolt of vitality (...) What makes the turn so enjoyable is that it’s grounded in something recognizable — a soul-deep dread of being abandoned"	POS
United States	Matt Goldberg Collider	"Paulson and Allen are incredible, and they never sell the emotional stakes of the movie short (...) Chaganty has delivered not the typical thriller you’re expecting"	POS
United States	Chris Evangelista SlashFilm	"Chaganty knows how to conjure big excitement from small scale scenarios, and that’s a lot harder than it looks"	POS
United States	Christy Lemire rogerebert.com	"You’ll be able to figure out where 'Run' is headed pretty quickly, but that doesn’t detract from the precise thrills and campy fun along the way (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
