Pretty motivational film with Simon Pegg who is always incredible and directed by David Schwimmer which was pretty surprising but he actually is a good director, this film was great.
Whitt was not a good character, his whole character was just an obstacle for Pegg's character and he was really simple himself. Made me hate David from friends. I will always see him as the nerdy guy from friends so it was weird how they tried portraying him as the perfect guy. He also plays Gargamel in the Smurfs.
The message behind this was great and very motivational. Kinda made me wanna run a marathon. His character was really interesting and had nice motivations, I think the whole running concept was done really well and I really enjoyed the ending.
There were a couple of kinda funny and likeable side characters but they weren’t funny enough to be memorable or noteworthy at all. Just generic side characters.
I haven’t watched this before as one kid I didn’t like said “run fatboy run” to me as I was running to class and I remember it to this day for some reason. But Yh glad I finally watched it coz it was good.
8.2/10
