A fantastic experience delivered from an indie production. Running Naked starts off with a literal and quite funny hook, that simmers down into a mundane and purely expositional opener. However, Running Naked manages to pull us back with some absolutely fantastic and emotional plot devices that for some of the film I was out of my seat.
Its hard to credit any single thing about this film as it all gels together so brilliantly. You quickly forget the stale situation of the protagonists and become drawn in to their journey, in search for the future by accepting the past.
Running Naked is definitely worth the watch!

I don't often give up on a film before the end, it's only happened a handful of times in my whole life. This was one film I just couldn't finish.
The plot seems like a good idea, the people acting in it have been really good in other things. It's Matthew McNulty's character, Mark who I have a massive problem with and who made me turn the film off. He's meant to be a doctor but doesn't behave like any doctor I have ever known. He behaves more like a conman pretending to be a doctor. Don't get me wrong, McNulty did a great job with the script he was given. Just a shame it was a terrible script.
I also have reservations about Andrew Gower, a neurotypical person playing a character with so much neurodivergence. It just didn't sit right

I don't understand how you can rate it above 3 or 4.
I still hesitate between Stupid and Lame...or whether the movie is more stupid than lame, or the other way around.
Anyway, if you like empty movie, it is for you.
If you prefer good acting and good scenario, try "The Queen's Gambit" and if you want something simple but refreshing, try "The Spacewalker" (better to watch it in Russian with subtitle:"Vremya pervykh")

Running Naked is one of the best films I have seen in ages! It made me laugh out loud and it made me cry. Very clever story and brilliantly acted. A joy from start to finish.

What a great film!
I always think that a smaller budget makes the story that much more important. I have had my fill of high value productions that rely on either a star name or a load of CGI.
This takes things back to basics - good story, good acting and a great plot.
It has humour, plays with your emotions and a great ending. Definitely worth an hour and a half of your time - you won't be disappointed!

This is a warm hearted fun filled story, guaranteed to leave you in a better place by the end. The cast are excellent and the subject matter is dealt with sensitively, with some proper laugh out loud moments.

I work with a lot of people who suffer from OCD and it's refreshing to have a character portrayed accurately, movingly but in a humorous way too! The actors, the story and the scenery were breathtakingly captivating. I really enjoyed it. Thank you.

Great to see films made in the UK and especially up North, Stoke, Manchester and Derbyshire. The cast did an excellent job making this film so real and moving but with comedy, their honesty and integrity made this a treat to watch again and again.

This film is excellent because it had world class actors and director and it was also very well written. I thought it was inspiring for those who had defeated cancer and those who are fighting it, it was excellent and inspiring, so therefore I award this amazing film, full marks

Great story of the bond formed by two young lads going through cancer treatment and how their friendship endures when both handle it in very different ways. Great performances by Andrew Gower and Matthew McNulty.

A heart warming and humorous story about a friendship formed by teenagers with cancer. The film manages to feel light while tackling a serious subject.
As the boys become men it is apparent that there have been long term consequences, for both males, of having looked into the face of a potential early death.
An interesting story line. Crazy action and beautifully written human interactions. A must watch!

Well! What more can I say that hasn't been said already? Utterly fantastic, beautifully shot, and tremendous performances from all cast, especially Andrew Gower and Mathew McNulty. A very at times moving journey of true friendship and love, formed from cancer and highlights cancer and what it does and that there is much hope. I laughed. I cried. I was at times on the edge of my seat, and my stomach was in my throat! A real must watch, this film deserves to go far and wide! It was however a shame that the lady that played the mum was not credited, even though she played more of a part than a passerby. Maybe a credit given where it's due?

This lovely film kept us glued to the screen throughout.
It was about two best friends, one had terminal cancer, one did not. They had both already dealt with cancer as teenagers which had created a lasting bond between them. The antics they got up to , both in the past and in the present time was very funny and the whole story flowed between the laughter, mischief and of course, the serious problem of a life coming to a close.
The acting was first rate, performed with smooth sensitivity and liveliness. A brilliant cast indeed leaving us with a long lasting impression of these beautiful people and their heartwarming story.

A real human film, down to earth, emotional, uplifting and really really well made. Great actors, great production, great script. Some funny moments that show you need to have humour ("always look on the bright side!") when dealing with a major illness. And putting aside the storyline about The Big C, it's simply a great story about friendship....... give it a watch! Now!

This film was amazing and it was clear it was made by people who really cared for this film and it's themes. Running naked also spoke about a serious subject matter in a sensible way while also having funny moments that didn't feel out of place.

Get ready to laugh out loud and to shed a few tears. The story line takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions and leaves you with so much to think about at the end. A beautiful story of friendship.

Loved this film! Such an emotional topic but filmed in such a way that it was sensitive and heart warming with the addition of comedy. Very clever.
