Hello Classic Crew and welcome to today's video where we're going to be doing a husband versus
00:00:05.200
wife movie review on Nobody. So to start off Abigail's talking about before we start doing
00:00:14.480
this that maybe we should drop the husband versus wife part of this because we most often agree.
00:00:19.840
Yeah there's only a few movies that we disagree on. I mean I'm fine with keeping it because welcome
00:00:25.120
to the clickbait so good to have you here. Glad you have eyes on this for the three minutes that you
00:00:29.920
do or whatever it is however clickbait works. The most husband versus wife we ever were was 1917
00:00:35.760
which we had to film three separate times. We did. Because it was two husband versus wife. I will link
00:00:41.280
that in the description or up here. The end product came out amicable and cordial with only mild
00:00:46.640
disagreement about how good the movie was because we both thought it was good. I just thought it was
00:00:51.600
up here literally above the camera frame and you thought it was here so middle of the camera frame
00:00:57.360
and if this is neutral then yeah you liked it and I loved it. So yeah. So we eventually came around and
00:01:04.080
were able to have an easy discussion about it but the first two recordings did not go as well.
00:01:09.920
And for this one it's not husband versus wife practically speaking it's husband and wife agree
00:01:15.840
yes that you should go watch nobody. Absolutely. So we saw nobody we actually went to a movie theater
00:01:22.400
can you believe it? Yeah go figure see a movie in a movie theater. Which we missed a lot. We really
00:01:27.680
like going to movie theaters and it makes us sad that people think that movie theaters are going to
00:01:31.520
just die and everyone's just going to stream things because the experience of going to movie theaters
00:01:35.600
I really like. That's like saying that seeing wife music is defeated by having cds right spotify.
00:01:41.840
Exactly. It might undercut the margins to make big concerts make sense for many performers so okay
00:01:47.680
music my music industry will change but the fact that there's an appeal to live music ain't gonna
00:01:53.600
change because it's just completely different. Same thing with a movie theater I mean to think that it's
00:01:59.040
the same itch scratched seeing a movie in a movie theater with a giant screen the darkened room with
00:02:04.960
the full focus on it with the enforced hopefully phone off uh is the same thing as at home on your phone
00:02:10.800
or whatever it it doesn't compare so the industry might reform and take a different shape but I
00:02:16.320
cannot imagine it just disappearing as a service that's provided. Yeah I agree but um we saw nobody
00:02:23.600
and I was wondering if you could give us just a brief overview of the of the plot. Sure so um first to
00:02:30.480
set the uh table with regard to what genre this is this is in what I call the dad action genre or rather
00:02:37.200
the suburban action genre uh so you have john wick you have this movie nobody now and you have the
00:02:43.600
accountant and there are other examples as well uh the Liam Neeson late career resurgence and all
00:02:49.200
these little action movies where he's a dad again taken to similar it's dad action even though in john
00:02:54.880
wick he wasn't technically a dad but it's the same that's why i said suburban as well it's just that entire
00:02:59.920
thing of your lead has to be at least 40 years old preferably over 50 years old and then we lead from
00:03:07.200
there with him being in the suburbs being a person who has either retired from violence or is violent
00:03:14.560
but on the down low like in the accountant with ben affleck or something like that and then you have
00:03:19.040
your inciting incidents which brings in previously established off-screen lethal skill set taking out
00:03:25.760
some unsuspecting uh target but basically your part of the movie is bob odenkirk uh better call
00:03:31.440
saul mr show breaking bad known as a comedic actor for the most part suburban dad who has a uh emasculating
00:03:39.920
life of humdrum uh boringness and one night some robbers break into his house he doesn't really do
00:03:46.800
anything about it in fact he tells his son who has one of them at his mercy stand down which is even more
00:03:51.200
emasculating to him and uh that's basically our starting point and then over the course of the
00:03:57.520
movie he gets his groove back through violence and we find out that he was in fact formerly a
00:04:02.880
super lethal operator should we say i mean is that a spoiler i don't know so when i went into the movie
00:04:09.280
i didn't know the idea that he had did you see a trailer i saw a trailer okay
00:04:15.200
i didn't know that he had prior experience as like a lethal weapon but but i thought he was going to
00:04:26.160
like build up his strength and become a strong man by the end of the movie so i mean that's your
00:04:31.520
discipline i don't know if it's a spoiler like the first 15 minutes because at the end of the 15 minutes
00:04:37.040
he's gotten the gun he's running around we see his tattoo right so that's off that guy so it's really so
00:04:41.760
i don't think it's a spoiler no that that that's the case that he's kind of getting his groove back
00:04:46.960
not initially like learning how to be a strong guy well that's also a key part of the dad action
00:04:52.800
genre is that we don't get the training montage we don't get like an origin story college superhero
00:04:58.800
movie the first one has to establish them with the powers and the training what i love about the dad
00:05:04.640
action genre is you just start with them knowing how to do things and then you actually just get the
00:05:09.760
body of the movie them being good at things yes which is the entertaining part seeing someone learn
00:05:14.000
how to be good at things in a movie is usually the least interesting part unless it's a well-done
00:05:19.360
sports movie right in which the training is about character and stuff like that but the superhero or
00:05:24.880
whatever thing where you learn how to be uh super powerful very boring yeah also superhero movies
00:05:31.040
very boring that's a separate thing we won't get into that that could start a whole
00:05:35.280
host of comments so let it i don't care i'm over it so going back to this movie um we really liked it
00:05:43.360
we thought it was really really well done fantastic definitely would recommend it so so in terms of
00:05:49.520
john wick and this movie sharing the same genre yes and no it's kind of like how john wick is
00:05:55.920
dad action but it's all serious all the way through it's very stylish visually uh the first movie and the
00:06:02.480
second movie are defined by you know uh the color palette being like a charcoal shade and then like
00:06:08.400
a teal vaguely neon or in the second one it's uh purple and third one it's purple and other colors
00:06:14.080
like the lighting of the movie incredibly stylish yeah and then the music is industrial techno sounds
00:06:22.400
or whatever the genre of music is whereas for this movie it's distinctly comedic well it's distinctly
00:06:27.520
comedic i will say there's a stylistic um cutting and editing in the way that there's kind of like
00:06:33.840
cut cut cut cut at the beginning oh yes so it's stylistic in that way humdrum life right yeah but
00:06:40.800
the visual colors and distinctions they look more like a person in real life not oh you're in a new
00:06:47.680
world it's it's stylistic editing to really give you the vibe it's going for in the first part of the
00:06:54.080
movie which is the humdrum emasculated suburban existence so rapid fire montage of like three
00:06:59.680
weeks in his life all the days being the same so the editing is stylish but the color palette
00:07:06.400
like it's saturated it's normal life the use of music there's classical music used in certain parts
00:07:12.240
there's um i'd say like golden oldies used as well like there's a lot of music used in the movie very
00:07:18.480
conspicuously to help set a tone but it's not the industrial techno background sounds of john wick
00:07:26.080
it's instead actually very much a part of the movie and the reason we're talking about john wick
00:07:30.080
specifically is that clearly we already talked about the genre right that this what did you call it
00:07:35.120
the dad action or dad action drama i'm not yet uh decided which suburban dad action might be most
00:07:41.280
there you go um but part of the reason the movies are so similar is because the writer of john wick is
00:07:46.320
also the writer of nobody so that would make sense that they're in the same genre but also they have
00:07:52.400
a similar kind of style and that it was the same writer who came up with it and david leech who's uh
00:08:00.000
one of the directors of the john wick franchise was involved in nobody i forget the capacity he was
00:08:05.200
involved in maybe as a producer but that's the direct dna right you had the same script writer and
00:08:10.720
then you have like one of the directors of john wick and then also the director of the movie was
00:08:15.760
the director of hardcore henry which if you've seen without needing to take jammin i commend you because
00:08:20.480
that was a very nausea inducing movie it's an entire action movie filmed in first person that sounds
00:08:25.600
horrible and i would hate that it was entertaining it was well done for what it was but it was very
00:08:31.440
nausea inducing yeah so um and that's there and that guy also has a history of directing music videos oh that's
00:08:37.040
so you can see kind of like doing a lot in short sequences like a lot of cuts and things like that
00:08:41.680
because the music video connection you have to get a lot established visually in like three minutes
00:08:46.640
yeah yeah and apparently from what i could find online bob odenkirk who is the main character in
00:08:52.320
the movie he watched john wick and then reached out to the writer of john wick and said i want to do a
00:08:58.480
movie let's do it and he spent two years uh preparing for the role and uh physically physically
00:09:05.040
be learning how to yeah exactly how to actually do the the goal being that he would do as many of them
00:09:10.640
as he could accomplish so that more of them could be put on camera because you know how many stunt
00:09:16.560
doubles they have to cut away they have to be creative here if you know how to do it then your
00:09:20.240
face gets to be on camera it's just much more compelling less compromised well and the cool thing
00:09:23.840
about the movie i think is that you can tell that there was a lot of thought that went into it that
00:09:29.280
the people who made it cared about the topic cared about the film i mean it's an hour and a half it's
00:09:35.280
very short it's very quick they had something that they wanted to say and they said it they didn't
00:09:39.520
feel like they need it didn't feel to me i started just using the word say it's it's not a message
00:09:44.720
movie there's not like no but well for okay so i was watching an interview with bob odenkirk and he
00:09:50.560
said that he had actually had his house broken into a couple of times oh my and he where does he live i don't
00:09:56.560
know i can make this a message review point out where he lives and then say get what you vote for
00:10:04.080
but he had had that happen to him and so he was inspired to make this movie because he said what
00:10:11.360
would it would what would it have been like if i had fought back if i had done all these different
00:10:17.840
things and he said it's probably not i probably shouldn't have fought back that probably would
00:10:20.880
not have been the right thing to do but it's an interesting idea in a film to explore what would it
00:10:25.680
have been like if i had and how could i which is funny because so as we mentioned the inciting real
00:10:32.080
incident for the movie is the home break and at the beginning suburban dad bob odenkirk character's
00:10:36.800
house broken into his son gets the job on one of the two robbers and it's like wrestling with him
00:10:41.360
bob odenkirk has a golf club they manage to like retrieve and is going to hit one of the other robbers
00:10:45.680
and then decides not to and tells his son to lay off and the robbers just kind of punch the sun in the
00:10:50.880
face and then leave because the guy who's his debit cards there's no cash laying around uh robbers
00:10:55.520
were incompetent whatever the whole point is that the robbery wasn't that terrible it was just violative
00:11:01.280
of the sovereignty of his house yeah and so hyper emasculating that he did nothing about it and his
00:11:05.520
own son had to do something about it and he tells the son to lay off so like that's the whole thing and
00:11:10.000
so as you were saying when it comes to how you didn't go in knowing that he's the super lethal background
00:11:18.080
character if you don't know that going in and if you've seen the trailers you're gonna know that
00:11:24.000
he was uh super lethal or something like that previously but you go in and he lets the sun lay
00:11:29.280
off you think it's from weakness and so the movie does a bit of a 180 when he resolves to like kind
00:11:34.880
of get his groove back and you realize that the reason why he didn't attack the robbers was because
00:11:40.800
he had been super lethal before and this was his attempt at normalcy and that was the interesting spin
00:11:44.960
in this movie compared to the other entries in the suburban dad action genre is that this explores
00:11:50.480
the idea that the character who was super good at killing people has a bloodlust has an innate nature
00:11:56.560
where he likes the violence he likes taking people out and so to achieve a suburban dream he kind of
00:12:02.240
emasculated himself as he says in the movie i just had a thought though because in the movie he and
00:12:08.240
his wife have also grown apart they have two children they have a whatever a 16 year old and like
00:12:14.080
a 10 year old yeah um and he and his wife i mean it's very distinctly shown that they've grown apart
00:12:20.480
by putting pillow wall yeah a pillow wall in between them um and it seems when you watch the film sorry
00:12:26.800
can i interject with a bad joke yes they built the pillow wall to make their marriage not great again
00:12:34.400
perfect and it seems as you watch the movie that his wife knew about his past in some form
00:12:41.760
but i'm guessing that she the two of them decided you know you're not going to do this anymore and
00:12:48.320
we're going to settle down so i don't think it was only him that emasculated himself it was probably his
00:12:54.080
wife in the sense not not that he should have continued this crazy you know violent job with
00:12:59.440
two young children he was a government assassin who uh sorry this is like a bad joke in the movie that i
00:13:05.200
will relate here so his family refers to him as having been an auditor for the military which
00:13:10.960
implies that oh you served as an accountant oh that's not so dramatic or heroic except that it
00:13:17.760
turns out that he was literally called an auditor in his cia uh special ops operations whatever job
00:13:24.560
because he was the last person an organization wanted to see hence an auditor right which is such a dad joke
00:13:33.200
it is such a dad joke like you're a super lethal assassin and so your code name well his code name is
00:13:39.280
nobody but my job title is an auditor yeah because you you have you have to have been an organization
00:13:45.840
that's audited to really feel the dread that that name implies perhaps there is a message there in that
00:13:52.720
when a woman demands of a man that he become less of a man she starts feeling less attracted to him
00:13:59.680
because their relationship seems to have really kind of fallen apart as he has become
00:14:06.320
kind of more and more subjugated to his yeah to this life which again parenthood fatherhood these are
00:14:14.480
very important things and not things that should be played down and made into something that isn't
00:14:20.000
masculine but he himself has taken a job with her with her family he yeah so he works for a construction
00:14:26.880
firm that's owned and run by her father and the heir apparent to taking over the business is her
00:14:33.360
brother who's um like a macho man child i get very much what you're saying what i mean yeah i think
00:14:40.320
well when it comes to the idea that fatherhood and taking care of your family and everything like that
00:14:44.640
it's necessary but not altogether sufficient you have to do it in the right way yes so if you're a
00:14:50.960
dad who has kids and you're financially providing great everyone should be doing that also have
00:14:58.080
control over your domain protect your family have an element of like um in the same way that there's
00:15:03.760
a difference between like an irish wolfhound or a dog that is a domesticated dog but still capable of
00:15:08.720
doing the wolf things which is why you domesticated the things so it's capable of work right the chihuahua
00:15:14.320
is not really like the domesticated wolf in the useful way yeah so too should it be that the man
00:15:19.680
who okay he uh quits the wild early days so they can be with his wife great yes but keep the strength
00:15:27.120
right he needs to vitality strong yeah and as he says i over corrected in a way which is the humdrum
00:15:34.000
existence yeah and as soon as he starts to engage with that masculine side of himself again again maybe
00:15:39.600
not i wouldn't call it the masculine side because that's that's too broad this is the violent blood
00:15:44.720
bust let's be clear because he goes after the two robbers uh incited by uh someone the robbers broke
00:15:50.240
into his house he finds that he's missing his daughter's kitty cat bracelet afterwards so he thinks
00:15:54.800
the robbers just kind of took it when they grabbed a fistful of cash or keys whatever from a bowl in his
00:15:59.440
house uh and that it's like you took for my daughter my sweet innocent daughter like that's the thing that
00:16:05.200
kicks him off they stole my kitty cat bracelet and you don't do that you can tell he has a blood
00:16:12.080
lust so when he hunts down the robbers he wants to beat the crap out of them he finds that they're just
00:16:16.240
miserable people who are just doing enough desperation so then right after that moment he
00:16:21.680
gets into the famous bus fight scene well i guess my point was hoping for that right he looked specifically
00:16:27.600
yeah but there was a i don't know how you want to describe it because i don't want to say that like
00:16:32.480
him being a blood a bloodthirsty individual potency back as a man from like confirming that he can
00:16:40.480
fight and being able to exercise that aggression it's just that you can tell it's it's dysregulated
00:16:46.320
right because it's i want to get into a fight for the fight's sake just so that i get to actually in
00:16:52.800
another interview i heard that they were using it somewhat as a parallel to addiction where it's like
00:16:59.040
as he's at once he kind of opens that door he like wants it he wants to fight he wants to fight
00:17:06.080
people just random people and get like really into that you know physical aggression at the end of the
00:17:12.880
movie he and his wife are are really good with each other again they're like they're their marriage
00:17:17.600
well their marriage is balanced out she feels like he's you know taking the role of husband and
00:17:23.520
father and protector and that's a good thing she likes that she's attracted to it but also an aspect
00:17:30.320
of that is not just it doesn't just follow from him committing the violence it's that no it's that
00:17:34.720
he protects the family well it's not just that he protects the family because he created the threat to
00:17:38.400
the family in the first place by his addiction to violence problems right uh just to run through the
00:17:43.520
plot briefly you know as we said home break in then he hunts the uh people afterwards decides not to do
00:17:49.440
anything to them because he realizes how miserable their situation is and how that just be bloodlust
00:17:54.480
against innocent people he gets on a bus to go home and then a group of drunk aggressive russian
00:18:00.240
gangsters get on the bus and they're just random people to him but he's kind of itching for the
00:18:05.600
opportunity to have an excuse to violence so these guys get on the bus there's just a young woman on the
00:18:11.440
bus and he knows that there's going to be some kind of harassment or something going on nothing's kicked
00:18:15.840
off yet though so you don't know for sure if it's just going to be hooligan verbal harassment which
00:18:21.120
is awful but doesn't jump off to the point where you need to break someone's trachea uh yeah fair enough
00:18:27.360
or if it's going to be something far more sinister and so he just takes the opportunity before anything
00:18:32.000
happens that would justify basically breaking these men um he takes the opportunity to initiate violence
00:18:39.200
and then go after them because he wants to do the violence
00:18:56.640
it's been a hell of a day you can see that right and so it turns out one of those gangsters is the
00:19:01.280
brother of like an actual big figure in the russian underworld and so then that russian gangster goes
00:19:06.880
after him so that's very clearly some john wick dna there because it's oh some relative of big
00:19:13.840
russian figure is a target or harmed or whatever by a main character who's a retired uh super lethal guy
00:19:20.160
and so russian gangster brings this organization after him we have a home invasion scene we have
00:19:24.800
the whole thing where he's captured at one point it's not just about protecting his family so all that
00:19:29.360
he has his blood lest he creates the problem for his family but we also get the moments where he
00:19:33.520
now that he's got his blood up he's got his potency back he just addresses the problem with his wife
00:19:38.720
so it's not just the violence it's that he like a man addresses it and speaks to her with a forwardness
00:19:44.880
and a passion says let's go to italy let's do this let's can we afford not to also i miss you and we
00:19:50.480
haven't been us in years yes i mean these but this is this is about a man taking back his
00:19:57.440
who he is not what he not what he does but just like feeling strong in himself and that is an
00:20:05.760
attractive quality in a man is for him to know who he is acting like a man and acting strong rather
00:20:10.800
than a shell who's slunk into himself like we see in the beginning montage but everyone in the movie does
00:20:15.920
a really good job of their performances there's only one scene with bob oden kirk to me that i that stood
00:20:21.760
out as i didn't feel like he put in his best performance um which was when he actually talks
00:20:28.320
to the big russian bad at the uh kind of in the middle end of the movie um that i didn't feel like
00:20:37.040
he he gave his best shot there but other than that he was great i thought he did a great job and one
00:20:42.480
of the things i really loved about the movie as opposed to a lot of these other movies in the genre
00:20:48.560
you're talking about is that he takes damage so when he's fighting it's not oh i'm a superhero and
00:20:55.440
no one can hurt me and there's no risk when you're watching these fights you're just like okay so we're
00:20:59.680
getting to the end of the movie with him intact because how could he get hurt he actually makes
00:21:06.320
it in these fights he gets injured and he injures himself and in the first big fight scene on that bus
00:21:13.120
the famous bus scene that for him is he's not just immediately a back in the swing of things after
00:21:19.760
years of being you know latent no of not of not actually dormant dormant yeah sure he he has to
00:21:28.560
remember what he what he used to do so he he hurts himself a few times he bumps himself he he doesn't
00:21:34.880
do as good of a job as he might have ten years old man who hasn't fought in decades right against uh
00:21:40.160
five or six whatever it is late 20s early 30s men who are also physically larger than him right
00:21:45.360
and so as you were saying what's great about the scene is so he takes damage and they do a good job
00:21:50.320
with the makeup and bob odenkirk does a good job selling like the physical bumps and bruises the
00:21:55.280
difference between him and these hooligans these thugs is that this is his world right i mean a thug kind
00:22:02.400
of by definition is not tough in the normal sense of give hits take hits have the strength of will of
00:22:09.680
character whatever to continue on but defines a bully or a thug is situational you're stronger
00:22:15.680
than the people you choose to target so you word it over them the same way that's not like um street
00:22:20.720
thugs who have guns train with firearms and are good with them it's that they have a gun and someone
00:22:25.200
doesn't or they have a knife and someone doesn't it's not like they uh spend hours training after
00:22:30.320
work or after robbing people now is my time to be a master of my car no i have the gun you don't have
00:22:35.680
the gun right give me your cash so these guys they're big they're tough they're not trained
00:22:40.160
they're clumsy but there's more of them so they hurt him he gets back up and gets in there because
00:22:44.960
that's his world that's his world of violence and giving and taking hits and that's not theirs so
00:22:48.480
they're actually freaked out by him because they're not used to someone fighting back and being good at
00:22:52.800
it and not shrinking away and so that was really well sold like the difference between the caliber of
00:22:58.640
opposition here and so just i the bus scene is fantastic and that sets your tone for a lot of the rest of
00:23:03.520
the movie uh as you were saying your one issue you had with that scene between bob ownkirk's
00:23:08.320
character and the russian big bad that you didn't think his acting was great for me the action directing
00:23:13.680
is fantastic throughout all the movie until the very end set piece uh in the construction firm because
00:23:19.440
then you end up going back to guns and guns and a lot of movies like this are visually not so interesting
00:23:24.560
to see because guns are super deadly and they shoot pretty far and these movies are really built around
00:23:31.040
hand-to-hand fighting because that's when you have two actors on screen you get creative choreography
00:23:35.760
get interesting there's only one thing in the in that end set piece because i do agree with you
00:23:41.280
with that assessment i think that hand-to-hand combat is more entertaining for us to watch as an
00:23:46.320
audience um but there was one cool thing where reza is that the name of the rizza rizza um of that actor he
00:23:54.560
uh he has that gun and he kind of like flips it over his shoulder yeah and he like shoots it at someone and he
00:24:00.480
uses the the kickback the recoil to to punch someone else in the face and that was a kind of a cool move
00:24:06.080
but it's because it wasn't just shooting and hitting people it was using the gun as a weapon he was in
00:24:11.440
a hallway the cramped hallway so the nature of the environment dictated that you have to be up close
00:24:17.040
with someone it justified right as opposed to when they're standing in the middle of a room a big
00:24:22.400
warehouse and they're just standing back to back shooting russians who are just kind of sprinting at
00:24:27.600
them with their guns rather than all the russians kind of hide behind stuff around the corners of
00:24:31.760
the room and then take pot shots at them which is what you would do when a gun right so just um and
00:24:37.120
that because it was so gun reliant was just visually less interesting but you know the character dynamics
00:24:41.680
are still fun i mean the movie is fantastic anyway it's just it really helps show that the hand-to-hand
00:24:46.880
stuff is the more interesting parts kind of like how in john wick in order to like make the ending
00:24:52.080
fight sequence in the second one where he just goes to that museum and is killing like dozens of the uh
00:24:57.120
bodyguards of the italian big bad they all run up to him he does this little judo thing throws him on
00:25:01.920
the ground shoots another guy who's like five feet away from him right the guy ran within five feet to
00:25:05.920
be on screen and then he shot the heads just yeah they're limitations right um but one of the things
00:25:11.600
i think is special about this movie as opposed to john wick is that there are so many familial connections
00:25:18.160
um his relationship with his family obviously informs his choices differently than john wick
00:25:24.880
uh and i i really like seeing a father and a husband and his decision making i think that makes
00:25:32.240
him more layered even though i do love john wick and even though this is clearly a more comedic and
00:25:37.920
less serious take on this entire thing yeah then john wick it's psychologically less realistic except it
00:25:43.360
also delves at moments into like the psychology of the emasculation and things like that so it's it's a
00:25:48.880
little bit having its cake and eating it too but overall it works well enough because you know when
00:25:54.000
to take it seriously you know when not to take it seriously yeah and then you also have his
00:25:58.400
relationship with his father and with his brother and that is also fun to see how i love christopher
00:26:05.360
lloyd um but it also you know he that's a familial connection as far as his choice of job because his
00:26:12.160
father was an fbi agent um and his brother does whatever his brother does yeah his brother does
00:26:17.120
something that allows him to be good um yeah so i thought that was uh an interesting layer to this
00:26:25.600
kind of a movie so that's our review of nobody oh and there's probably going to be a sequel because
00:26:31.200
they let that in they do set it up for a sequel and the movie just sitting on wikipedia right made
00:26:37.600
about 35 million dollars so far had a budget of i think 16 million dollars yeah so you know looks
00:26:42.640
like a decent return what's nice about these more grounded action movies as compared to uh the fast
00:26:47.440
and the furious franchise for the superhero movies which so excited so furious is coming out this summer
00:26:53.200
finally yeah um what's nice about them is first of all the more compelling in my uh opinion because
00:26:59.920
the stakes are grounded and relatable you're not saving the world again again and you also don't have
00:27:04.640
a big cga monster or set piece that's a giant cartoon right you don't care about again so they're
00:27:10.000
lower budget by their nature yes so it's easier to turn a profit you get someone with a big enough
00:27:15.040
name like bob odenkirk or keanu reeves you get someone who knows how to put a fist fight on film
00:27:20.720
you get a script that's just grounded enough to be relatable boom it's like the uh how the horror movie
00:27:26.000
genre seems just crank out so many of them because they're able to make them low budget put a famous
00:27:31.200
to send me famous person and they're like patrick wilson right conjuring and boom you're making
00:27:34.880
money right exactly if you could have an action movie renaissance like that that'd be fantastic
00:27:38.400
and it seems kind of like we are yeah and uh make sure to stay through at least the beginning of the
00:27:43.280
credits because there's a mid-credit scene oh yes so that's kind of fun with christopher lloyd and rizzo
00:27:48.320
which was uh charming yeah but yeah we would definitely recommend it you can rent it at home you can
00:27:53.840
see it in theaters and it's not a movie you have to see in theaters uh there are certain movies where the
00:27:59.600
scale the sweep everything like that you really want it on screen i like seeing it in the theater
00:28:04.480
i recommend seeing things in the theaters but if you can't let it be no barrier you don't have to
00:28:09.120
hold out and wait for that opportunity you can rent it at home and have a fine evening so thank you
