Carlos Aguilar TheWrap 02/23/2019
Unequivocally a message-pushing drama, but one with a subtler touch and more artistic merit than many of its thematically linked predecessors. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire RogerEbert.com 02/22/2019
2/4
Run the Race has enough of a shaggy, low-key likability that it makes you wish it were better. Go to Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times 02/22/2019
"Run the Race" lacks the specificity that would make it feel real to the audience. Go to Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times 03/11/2019
2.5/5
"Run the Race" won't convert any nonbelievers, or even spark a "Hmmm!" type of fleeting insight into the nature of faith, but for Christian faith-based families, it'll be quite satisfying. Go to Full Review Alci Rengifo Entertainment Voice 03/01/2019
It's a sincere work, even if we remain unconverted. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 02/26/2019

Rosana B @RosanaBotafogo Mar 8 Um drama cristão americano que acompanha dois jovens irmãos que usam o futebol para lidar com a morte da mãe e o abandono do pai, bem bonitinho, mas bem forçado em alguns momentos, Deus quer que perdoemos, mas ficar se submetendo a pais ausentes que só aparecem para pedir dinheiro e abusar dos meninos, Deus não quer isso… Boa produção, simpática, cheia de mensagens fofinhas de amor e perdão… Tem coisas que só a espiritualidade explica, e o kardecismo responde a muitas dessas perguntas... See more timmy t 10/17/2024 Good movie. The acting isnt great but isnt bad for a christian film. Besides that fantastic movie. See more Carla G S @Morecowbell13 09/30/2023 Predictable, corny and cheesy. Story has been told many times. Zach's hair was always in the way and all the Bible speak was over the top. Happy for him tho. See more 06/17/2021 Inspiring! Real, and family movie. See more bob c 03/19/2021 Okay movie, if you don't mind religion rammed down your throat See more Stephen J 02/12/2021 This film is just ok for a little while and does not seem to have enough power. As it goes along later, it does inspire well and the faith is stronger. The filming is a little low and the movie may be a little too quiet and all over the place. It should be more powerful all together with really going deeper into the faith because we all need Jesus and he is our only hope but yes, I still felt lifted up by the film later on and it just spoke to me well. I pray people will come to Christ through this film. Bad things happen but they all work together for the good for The Christian, for those called according to his purpose. See more Read all reviews
