Run For Money The Movie / 逃走中 THE MOVIE
The legendary program is getting an exciting movie adaptation for its 20th anniversary!
But this is a game like no one has seen before—one where lives are on the line!
Yamato, Eijiro, Ken, Riku, Yugo, and Satoshi were together in the track and field club in high school. They were such close friends that they wore friendship bracelets, and they also competed against one another as good rivals.
The six each went their own ways after graduation. Then, one day, they receive an e-mail inviting them to participate in the Run For Money. “Run For Money -Mission in Tokyo- to be held! Over one hundred million yen in prize money!” Yamato, bored of his uneventful life, is the first to accept, and so do the others, each of them with their own thoughts and ambitions. The hunters are released, and the game begins! The participants must desperately flee the hunters, and as they do, the six former members of the track and field team, who had split up, are reunited once more. However, each of them has their own circumstances, and the bond that there once was between them has been lost…
Then, there’s a sudden crisis! The Chronos company, which manages the game, is taken over, and some of the hunters go berserk?! Participants vanish one after another, assaulted by dark shadows. “This is no game! Run from the killer hunters!” The new game master “K” and the wild hunters are now in control!
“From now on, let’s have you race with your lives on the line.” Run For Money has suddenly transformed into a game with lethal stakes! But if they can survive, the prize will be a whopping ten billion yen?! There is a vast fortune to be had, and many dangerous missions.
Who will survive? And will the six be able to restore their bond? Which is more important, the money, or their lives? The ultimate Run For Money is about to begin!
