Run [Movie Review] | When I saw Sarah Paulson's name in the list of actors for the movie, I immediately know that the movie is going to be interesting.
The movie also labelled as a mystery and thriller, so I was so excited to watch it.

- Kiera Allen has used a wheelchair since 2014 as the filmmakers wanted to cast a disabled actress, stating that Hollywood rarely casts disabled actors for disabled roles.
- A deleted scene shows that Diane had an abusive mother who killed herself in front of Diane when she was 7. This explains the scars on her back.
Diane gave birth to a premature daughter and convinced the hospital staff that her daughter will be ok.
Years later, her daughter, Chloe is now a teenager and is awaiting her university acceptance letter. Every time a mailman comes, it seems that her mother manages to get the mails before she does and the acceptance letter is never in the mail.
Chloe is home-schooled by her mother due to the numerous illness that she is suffering and she is wheelchair-bound too.
Later, she finds green capsules that are prescribed to her mother in her mother's grocery bag. Later, she was given the capsule. Confused as to why she is given her mother's prescription, she checks the bottle and finds that the capsule is for her mother.
She tries to investigate the capsule via the internet but it seems that the home internet no longer works. The next day, she calls a random number and asks for help from the confused man who answered the call. When the man tells her that the capsule is for heart disease and the capsule's colour is red, Chloe's suspicion about her mother grows.
Later, during their movie outing, Chloe runs to the pharmacy across the cinema to find out about the green medication. When the pharmacist tells her that the medication is for the dog and it could cause a human's leg numbness if taken by a human. Just then her mother comes in and subtly sedates her before bringing her home.
Later, Chloe finds herself being locked in her room by her mother. She then struggles to break out of her room and later, slowly she breaks out of the home and to the road. There, she seeks help from the passing mail truck. But before they could run, her mother approaches them. The mailman insists on bringing her to the hospital himself and Diane agrees. Later, Diane stabs the mailman with a sedative.
Later, Chloe awakens in the basement chained to her chained wheelchair. Exploring the basement, she finds the long-awaited college acceptance letter, an article about a stolen newborn and her picture as a toddler, walking. When Diane comes to coax her to start anew, Chloe escapes into a storage room and drinks a substance (I assume a poison) that forces Diane to bring her to the hospital.
There, again Diane tries to abduct Chloe but was gunned down by the security personnel.
Will Chloe ever successfully runs from her mother?
MY REVIEW
Plot: 4.7/ 5.0 Be careful how you treat others as bad deeds will always come back round and bite you from behind, without you knowing it.
A mother's love knows no bound, they say. But it is certainly shocking to see how far a mother would go to love her child.
Cast: 4.8/ 5.0 All actors played their character beautifully. It is Sarah Paulson y'all!
Will I watch it again: Yes, I don't mind watching it again.
The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.

Oh my this appears to be a very suspenseful and gripping movie that will thrill you to the end. :)
ReplyDeleteTrue. You'll get the best of the plot at the end of the movie
DeleteEh movie ni macam dah pernah komen. Seram juga ye dah kenapa mak dia bagi ubat anjing?. Mak dia ni psycho sebab kisah lampau kot.
ReplyDeleteKak Ezna komen kat Bella Jamal semalam kot sebab dia pos review nie semalam. Tapi yes, mak dia terlampau sayang hehehe
DeleteAh ah baru teringat betul....Bella Jamal punya blog. Ishhhh kalau sayang sangat sampai macam tu sekali....ni bukan sayang tapi mak psycho!

Deletemacam suspen je movie ni. tapi best movie camni baru kita awake kalau tak ngantuk haha
ReplyDeleteSeram sejuk plak tengok karakter si mak tu. Sampai sanggup buat apa saja utk anak dia. Nak tengok juga lah sebab nampak best giler citer ni.
ReplyDeletePernah baca news yang kes mak dia cakap anak dia tak sihat. Berkerusi roda. Satu hari tu anak tu lari dari rumah bila dah tau dia tak sakit. Elok boleh bangun. Kena saiko ngan mak dia. Sama kes mcm cerita ni. Takutnya. Mentally abuse. Pastu bg makan ubat memacam. Astaghfirullahalazim. Real world pun berlaku tau.
ReplyDeleteCerita ni kalau aku tgk mesti stress. Hahahha. Best bila ada cerita manipulate mcm ni. Suspen
ReplyDeletePerghh cite ni leh tahan suspens ye... Kalau tgok mau terjerit2 sbb terkejut hahaha... Ok nak masuk dlm list leh tgk nanti haha
ReplyDeleteInteresting ya! Why would her mother do that to Chloe? Kena tengok ni...
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this movie, definitely my kind of genre. I've read a book by Gillian Flynn (the author of Gone Girl) and the mother in the book also has the same mental illness as Chloe's mom. Perhaps it's not as uncommon as we might think. Scary!

ReplyDeletecerita ni suspen.. rasa nk tengok sendiri kenapa mak dia buat anak dia macam tu. what a scary world...
