Here are the more favorable reviews:

In The Runaways’ first hour, there’s a guttural pleasure to be had in riding waves of rock-movie cliché spiked with socio-sexual commentary. The movie is at its best when working through the contradictions of teen sex-for-sale, when it’s both turn-on and creep-out.-Village Voice

The most entertaining thing about The Runaways, a highly watchable if mostly run-of-the-mill group biopic, is that its writer-director, Floria Sigismondi, has a sixth sense for how the Runaways were bad-angel icons first and a rock & roll band second. -Entertainment Weekly

but when it comes to delivering dialogue, both she and Ms. Stewart seem to be students of the Robitussin school of acting: monosyllabic clunkers delivered as though half-asleep.
