The murder mystery See How They Run, featuring Ruth Wilson and Saoirse Ronan, is on television tonight. It’s a twisty, unpredictable story with a great British cast, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre!
The 2022 movie is based on a story by the famous author Agatha Christie, portrayed in the film by Shirley Henderson. It centers around George Stoppard, a detective struggling with alcohol (played by Sam Rockwell), and his partnership with Constable Stalker (Ronan).
After the theatre director leading a stage production of The Mousetrap dies, Stoppard and Stalker find themselves caught up in an investigation where the list of potential suspects keeps growing.

Even though the film is rated 12A, the version shown on Film4 has been slightly edited to meet rules for earlier viewing times. If you’d like to see the original, full version, it’s available to stream on Disney+.

I was really surprised by how much critics loved this comedy mystery! It didn’t make a ton of money at the box office – only around $22 million – but it’s getting a lot of praise. Right now, 75% of critics on Rotten Tomatoes recommend it, based on over 200 reviews, which is pretty fantastic!
Digital Spy gave the film a five-star review, calling it a ‘perfect genre film’ full of surprising twists. We also praised it as a surprisingly touching and self-aware movie that explores the art of storytelling.
“See How They Run” gives audiences exactly what they want, while also cleverly appealing to their smarts and emotions. But above all else, it’s laugh-out-loud hilarious.
According to Consequence, See How They Run seems perfectly crafted to appeal to fans of murder mysteries. The script, by Mark Chappell, cleverly uses and playfully updates the most popular elements of the genre, keeping it both familiar and fresh.
See How They Run airs at 7.05pm on Film4.
