Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2009)

A good symbolism runs throughout the movie. Marathon metaphorically represents "the run of your life". WE can see a lot of David Schwimmer's acting and mannerism in Simon Pegg esp. in the initial scenes. It's pretty much the story of a man who runs.. away from everything in life A must watch if you are a David or Simon fan. David Schwimmer could have played the role of Simon's friend. This is a "feel good" movie. We are expecting a lot more from David Schwimmer in the future. The feel good factor is present in friends too and the sequence of Simon running away from his pregnant "about to be" wife is enjoyable. The movie isn't all about "logic" and stuff. It is illogical but still who cares?
