Movie Reviews of The Long Run
Movie Review: Running movie?? Keep looking !!
Summary: 1 Stars
This dated movie explores the relationship between an aging (over the hill?) white running coach and a talented, undiscovered, young black woman runner in South Africa around 2000. The 51 mile Comrades Run is the backdrop. The portrayal of life at that time is somewhat interesting. The development of the relationship between the two characters is not particularly believable (no, there is nothing amorous, it just doesn't ring true and is somewhat predictable.) But what I HATED was the portrayal of the Comrades Ultramarathon. As an ultramarathoner, I found the portayal of the race and the training and all things running ludicrous.
So if you want an inspirational movie about running... keep searching. Try "Running on the Sun."
