About This Movie

Runaway is an intriguing dive into a future where technology and humanity clash.

The practical effects used for the malfunctioning robots are quite impressive, giving a tangible sense of danger that's often lost in modern CGI.

The pacing pulls you in, creating a slow burn that amplifies the tension as it progresses. It’s a thoughtful take on technology's potential dangers, wrapped in a crime drama that leaves a mark.
