A team of Parkour practitioners is abducted by the criminal Mr. Frank (Danny Dyer) that puts remotely controlled necklaces with explosives around their necks to force them to participate in a millionaire gambling death race for their lives. The freerunner Ryan (Sean Faris) succeeds to deactivate his collar, but the evil Mr. Frank abducts his girlfriend Chelsea (Rebecca Da Costa). Now Ryan has to reach the evil mastermind to save Chelsea. "Freerunner" is an awful thing with dreadful acting, story, screenplay, direction and camera. It is amazing how a producer can invest five million-dollars is such a garbage. As highlighted in another review, this is the worst acting ever. My vote is one (awful).Title (Brazil): "Fuga Alucinante" ("Maddening Run")

I remember Simon Amstell saying that if a film contained Danny Dyer, it was either first rate or third rate. This film really doesn't cut it as third rate. It truly is terrible.I've watched a lot of films, and I tend to like a lot of cheap low budget horror films, so it's really going some to say that I think this is the worst acting I've ever seen. Maybe something like 'razor blade smile' coming in second. They were clearly going for parkour crossed with the running man, but failed on every count that matters as a movie (also, surely a better title would have been "The free-running man"?) The opening just looks like a computer game, but manages to handle it even worse than "house of the dead." Somehow it goes downhill from there.

This movie makes me want to grab a camera and go out and make a freerunning movie like tomorrow because that's exactly what these guys did. It has a feeling that a bunch of freerunners got together and shot a movie and just made it up as goes along, and they get Sean Faris and Danny Dyer who were in town doing a real movie to show up every other scene. This were like this is our new number #1 so bad it's good movie. So basically you have half ass freerunners being blown up in half ass special effects with some nudity stupid humor throughout and a lead actress nobody can understand and who cant act her way out of paper bag. They should have made a joke about her accent while she tried to fight her way out of a giant paper bag, that would have been awesome! So why eight stars? Because I want this could be cult classic like that crappy movie The Room that's been playing in L.A. at midnight for the last decade because it's so bad it's good. I'd love to see this in the theater, people making crap of it, freerunning around, throwing tomatoes at the screen. That's how Freerunner should be watched! It'd be awesome!

Films come and go this film has gone,I was in stitches badly filmed ,badly acted and what could have been a good script never surfaced the only good parts of the film was the English guy in the hat lol. IMDb ratings went astray with this one same as Drive with hints of Running Man. What am i saying this was Running man for 2011 if you like a laugh and have 90mins to waste it's worth £3 of anyones money in the reduced bin at blockbusters Danny dyer does his best but with a bad lines he drowns. Sean Faris plays a competent role but i looked at him and thought it was a young Tom Cruise and that thought stuck with me through the film Weird!!! The Film should be available at all good Car Boot sales soon. lol :)
