Reviews

1.5 episodes in and I’m out. For good.

I began watching this drama with high expectations because it has a high rating of 8 plus / 10 and the reviews are very good. I thought that I had found a gem but I was wrong.

I endured the first episode. I use the word ‘endured’ because the acting was pretty poor and mediocre and the plot seemed quite boring. Someone (a reviewer) said that Joker Xue was funny. To my great disappointment, he was not funny at all. He seemed utterly selfish and eccentric. I could not stand his nasally voice which was fairly high pitched for a male and he sounded like a duck that quacked away. It was most unnerving and unpleasant. I didn’t like listening to him and I didn’t like watching him. I found him detestable. In the second episode, he was worse! He was squabbling with a female neighbour and behaved insufferably! It was painful to watch. After 1.5 episodes, I figured that ‘enough is enough’ and I should not plough my way through a drama that is utterly painful to watch.

Verdict - don’t watch this drama unless you like young boys who can’t act well and ridiculous adults like Joker Xue and the other adults who are revolting like the senior teachers.
Not a good drama.

English?

There was no way I could get even get half way through episode 1.
I only read the English language. Who ever did the subs in English should NEVER be permitted to attempt this task. IF you think you can speak or read English you failed miserably. I can excuse a few mistakes and still understand the story line but this is an impossible disaster. Someone told me translators are not paid and are volunteer's. Either way, please don't ruin movies in any language by saying you know a language when you don't. I guess anyone reading this knows I am very upset I couldn't watch this movie. Yes, you should be embarrassed.

I agree with the other reviewer, it's painfully slow and sentimental, I really do not see police officers, especially cadets, behaving like that. Despite the attractions of Miura Haruma and Sato Koichi, I really can't take this seriously. Miura as the clean cut recruit looks nothing like his real self and is totally out of character. His haircut sucks. Sato is just not convincing as a tough guy cop turned instructor. I think both landed a stinker here. A generous 4/10.

Story - unoriginal, unbelievable
Acting/cast - on paper Miura and Sato ought to be a dream team, here they are more like a dead duck
Music - ?
Re-watch - unwatchable

so far

I know its only ep 4 but so far, its ok. I watched all versions (except Jap.) And my fave is the korean. Probably because they are older and it yook a real toll on them. Already this version is kiddish to me and playful.
I mean, a women who had a boyfriemd, but wouldnt spend the night with him, gets drunk after consciously signing her own name to a marriage certificate and ends up sleeping with him. No f-ing way!
Then how come he didn't know it waa a real certificate - he spoke with the captain to set it up himself!
To all that says he cheated on his girlfriend - he didnt, she was his wife no matter how you put it, they were legally married.
I already an loosing interest bc i cant feel shit for this couple. They seem too young to know how begin handling it.
The korean version, the ml had a lot to protect with a marriage and an heir. The fl had a lot of self reflection to do. They both took it on in different ways causing the breakdown of trust and therefore their marriage (the miscarriage was the linchpin)
I just feel the korean version was more mature (bar them being drugged bc that made no sense).
Ill see how far i could get b4 i cant take anymore. Sorry but i already dislike the fl. Her acting is so stiff.

okayy

at first I felt a really strong connection to this drama. Particularly the first episode was really good. the ones after that (2,3,4) were also really good, but after episode 5 it went downhill. I think they should’ve focused more on the revnge plot than the romance + the romance plot was very weak. if they wanted to do it, they couldve at least make it better. beside that I still give it a 7/10 because I think if there will be a s2 then this is okayy. Don’t expect too much, if you really wanna watch a great high school “getting revenge for my brother who was killed” go watch revenge of others!

Emmmmm

I just started and although I have read the “good reviews” so far this is not giving @ all. Of course the main lead can’t die in ep1 but like seriously, the brother of the dead guy shooting all those shots and not even one bullet grazed him especially in such close proximity, puh-lease and then the push from our other lead, who shocker, materialized out of nowhere, I don’t even know if it was a push or a hit and the guy just flew so dramatically. I will keep watching and hopefully all those “good” reviews were actually onto something. Fingers crossed.
I will update my rating after watching.

Thrilled to the Bone !!!

This is my first review and i am writing based on my personal opinion and the super enjoyment i went through while watching the film Only 2 episodes, yet the series promises a good, funny, highly enjoyable watch. BWS can act and is truly entertaining. I was so thrilled in his scenes as a singer and a swimmer. He can literally and figuratively sang and swam into one's heart. Scenes back to high school days were so hilarious and i super enjoyed them. It also provides for a good trip down HS memory lane. The FL is a good actress. She provided half of the moving as well as funny scenes. Both acting are on point. I already rewatched the first 2 episodes while waiting for the next to come. I just hope that BWS will not die in this series. His horrible death in nam soon was heartbreaking and kept me sleepless and restless over a few nights. Hoping to see more heart pounding moments in the next episodes.

Best show to laugh and give you lots of energy

Beginning I just used to watch clips in YouTube and once I saw lee Jong suk and Kim woo bin as guest and I loved the clips so I watched complete episode of it and I loved it.

When I started watching running man, it has total of 503 episodes, so I started watching certain episodes with celebs whom I liked. And best episodes or random. It’s truly great and amazing.

One thing is truly amazing in it is I don’t feel like it’s scripted. They play fare and with full of comedy. You won’t see any sad sees in running man but you will feel bad for few people which is also in a fun way.

Best show for good laugh - it has entertainment, comedy, beautiful locations, and they travel international trips, and amazing food, amazing games, rides, friendship, betrayal, doing they best to win, logics, tricks, water games and more than anything, you will get to see your favourite celeb doing cute and funny things. Running man team will give you all fun. Rock paper Scissor is one thing you see more.

Kim woo bin, lee Jong suk, lee Seung gi, song Joong ki, Kim soo hyun, ji Chang wook, gong yoo, park seo joon, Suzy, park shin hye, seo in guk, Choi Jin Hyuk, joo won, Choi min ho, upto I remember I enjoyed all this people shows.

I even find crew and staff is also amazing when they take part in show or when they be visible. And I even enjoyed a fan based episode. Name elimination is one thing I love to watch more. Show is almost more then 1 hour 30min. And I always feel time passes very quick. Depending on sub titles is one thing which makes me to miss real run. But the actions and expressions and how the visuals you see.. sub titles also won’t be a big deal ( I mean you will understand even if you don’t know the language ).

I wanna see hyun bin, so ji sub and Lee min ho and few more celebs in runnning man.

This is a mess that just popped up in less than 5 minutes, can't believe it's true

How can one make such a messed up series? The only bright spot is the actors' faces and the actors' acting is not enough to save the movie it's very bad, it's annoying from the emotionless dialogue the movie can say 18+ but it sucks with everything that can't be watched again, people probably only see the 18+ segments that are cut

I cannot stop laughing

I heard it was funny but that much??? No way!!!! Ha ha ha!!
The scene with the guy full of foam out of the shower...
But the most hilarious one was with the film director!!!!
Whaaat? I'm supposed to understand the guy who doesn't talk???
How can that happen?
Then he's blamed because he didn't understand. And when he meets his friends, he tells him what happened and he understood right away!!! As I type, I'm recalling the scene and laugh!!!
I don't know if it's going to be absurb all the way like that but I really really hope so!

Episode 2 : it's one word not two! It doesn't matter!!!
I just can't handle it anymore, I almost peed!! Hahaha!

What do they have with those French shirts/sweats etc??? Club pétanque, Merci beaucoup...

The clinical trial... ha ha ha!

To begin with, the storyline is very similar to "Stay With Me," in which both main roles are fashion designers and the overall story plot is similar. I really enjoyed stay with me, and I definitely think this is a binge-worthy drama to watch. The main lead is about a fashion designer that has been scammed by her ex-boyfriend and as the story thickens, she ended up in a lawsuit with the male main lead, and they had a rough beginning but I think this introduction to each character makes the story more interesting. I've only seen 2 episodes so far, and they have me hooked; definitely recommend this to watch during quartine.
