>>
>> BARB4@, YOU'VE GOT A DANCE DEGREE THAT4@ GET IT. YEAH.
>> YEAH.
AND I DON'T KNOW4@ IF HE LIKES
ANYTHING.
NORMALLY I HAVE LIKE SOME KIND
IDEA BUT I DON'T KNOW TODAY.
SO WE'RE GONNA FIGURE IT OUT.
YEAH.
WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT
ANOTHER MOVIE THAT I JUST SAW
BECAUSE WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT I
HAVE TO ALWAYS UPDATE YOU.
>> YEAH YOU'RE AT YOUR POP
CULTURE EXPERIENCE BECOMES A
SHARED4@ BOMBSHELL.
BY THE WAY, IT'S EVERYWHERE.
YES.
HEY,4@ HI.
LET'S GO.
LET'S CHAT.
LET'S CHAT.
THE GENTLEMAN THE GENTLEMAN
CAME OUT LAST WEEK.
THIS IS GUY RITCHIE'S LATEST
GUY RITCHIE IS DONE EVERYTHING
FROM4@ ALADDIN LAST YEAR TO LOCK
STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS
WAY BACK WHEN4@ IN THE LATE 90S
AND THIS IS MORE AKIN TO THE
LOCK STOCK TWO SMOKING BARRELS
THING.
IT'S SORT OF DUBBED IT LIMEY
CRIME.
I'M PROBABLY THE FIRST ONE TO
SAY THAT BUT VERY BRITISH, VERY
CAPRI CRIME MOVIE ABOUT MATTHEW
MCCONAUGHEY WHO WAS A SORT OF
MARIJUANA DRUG KINGPIN OF4@4@ TE
GREAT BRITAIN SIDE OF THINGS.
HE'S DECIDING TO STEP DOWN4@ SO
HE HAS A LOT OF PEOPLE VYING TO
TAKE OVER HIS ENTERPRISE AND
VARIOUS OTHER SCHEMES AND PLOTS
THAT ARE IN THERE TOO A LITTLE
TOO CLEVER FOR ITS OWN4@ GOOD.
IT'S VERY TWISTY AND THEN VERY4@
LOTS OF CHARACTERS, LOTS OF
MOTIVATIONS4@, LOTS OF ACCENTS
THAT SOME OF WHICH ARE PULLED
OFF BETTER THAN OTHERS.
4@AND IT THINKS IT'S PRETTY CUTE
AND PRETTY CLEVER AND
OCCASIONALLY IT'S PRETTY CUTE
AND PRETTY CLEVER BUT IT'S VERY
ENTHUSED WIT4@H ITSELF WHICH IS
IN LINE WITH THOSE OLDER GUY
RITCHIE MOVIES I GUESS.
BUT4@ YOU KNOW, THAT IDEA HAS
KIND OF BEEN DONE TO DEATH A
LITTLE BIT AND IT'S BEEN MADE
FUN OF.
PRETTY PRETTY APTLY BY SAYING A@
LOT AT ONE POINT.
SO YOU KNOW, THE SKETCH THEY
DID CALLED DON'T GO RUNNING
AROUND REWROTE IT LIKE THAT
WHICH IS PRETTY GREAT BECAUSE
THE ACTORS ARE SO THICK YOU
CAN'T MAKE OUT ANY OF THE
THINGS THAT THERE'S A GREAT
SKETCH.
BUT BILL, LATER DAYS4@ BACK IN4
YEAH.
SO IT HAS ITS MOMENTS OF FUN4@.
AND I THINK IF YOU LIKE THIS
SORT OF4@ THING AND GWEN'S GOING
FOR THIS SORT OF THING IN
GENERAL THEN YOU MIGHT FIND
SOME FUN HERE.
IT'S OK.
4@I DID NOT LOVE DID NOT HATE.
SO SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE WHEN I
GET THOSE BIG CASTS IT'S LIKE
THERE'S JUST THERE'S HIGH
EXPECTATIONS4@ AND LOW DELIVERY.
>> AND I LIKE A LOT OF TIME.
THAT'S TRUE.
>> AND THEY ALSO SORT OF LIKE
THERE'S SO MANY PEOPLE THAT
LIKE THEY KEEP INTRODUCING NEW
PEOPLE.
IT'S LIKE OKAY.
I'M STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
THE ANSWER TO PEO4@PLE.
AND IT'S THROUGH ME.
YEAH, I GOT TO FIGURE OUT THREE
MORE.
IT'S LIKE WHERE DO THESE PEOPLE
ALL FIT?
AND SOME OF THEM IT BECOMES
JUST WE COULD GET A BIG CAST SO
WE GOT A BIG CAST RATHER THAN
WE NEEDED ALL THESE PEOPLE TO
TELL THE STORY.
SO THERE'S THAT THERE'S A GIVE
AND TAKE.
>> ALL RIGHT.
THE RHYTHM SECTION.
THE RHYTHM SECTION.
NEW THIS WEEK.
THIS IS BLAKE LIVELY AS THE
SURVIVING MEMBER OF A FAMILY
THAT WAS KILLED IN A TERRORIST
ATTACK SO SHE DECIDES TO ASSUME
THE IDENTITY OF AN ASSASSIN AND@
SEEK HER REVENGE FOR THE DEATH
OF HER FAMILY.
SO SOUNDS4@ LIKE A PRETTY GOOD
CONCEPT FOR A MOVIE.
I THOUGHT THE TRAILER LOOKED
PRETTY GOOD.
BUT IT DOESN'T EVER REALLY TAKE
OFF.
THERE'S THIS4@ SORT OF OPENING
ACT WHERE SHE'S GRIEVING AND
THEN, YOU KNOW, DRUG ADDLED4@
THESE THINGS AND THEN SORT OF
SHE HAS TO TRAIN4@ AND SHIFT INO
THIS WOULD BE ASSASSIN AND IT
NEVER REALLY GETS OUT OF THAT
FIRST YEAR OF THIS SORT OF
MOURNFUL TONE.
THERE'S A KERNEL OF A GOOD IDEA
HERE IDEA HERE WHERE SHE MESSES
UP EVERY ATTEMPT AT A HIT THAT
SHE TRIES TO DO BECAUSE SHE'S
SO GREEN4@ HAS4@ NO IDEA HOW TO
UP EVERY ATTEMPT AT A HIT THAT SHE TRIES TO DO BECAUSE SHE'S SO GREEN4@ HAS4@ NO IDEA HOW TOO
THIS.
SHE TRIES TO DO BECAUSE SHE'S SO GREEN4@ HAS4@ NO IDEA HOW TOO THIS.4@
AND THAT'S AN INTERESTING IDEA
FOR A MOVIE AND OTHER MOVIES
HAVE TRIED TO THINK THAT IT
KIND OF GETS LOST SOMEWHERE IN
THIS THE ACTION NEVER REALLY
TAKES OFF WHE4@N YOU DO A SPY
THRILLER KIND OF THING YOU KIND
OF EITHER GOT TO HAVE4@ WIT OR
GRIT AND THIS HAS GOT A LITTLE
BIT OF GRIP BUT NOT A LOT OF
WIT4@ AND DOESN'T REALLY HAVE
ENOUGH OF EITHER TO REALLY MAKE
IT INTO SOMETHING SO IT NEVER
CAME TO LIGHT.
BLAKE LIVELY IS4@ AN INTERESTING
CHOICE FOR THAT ROLE.
I THINK SHE'S GOOD AT IT AND I
THINK SHE COMMITS TO THE ROLE.
>> I JUST THINK THERE'S A LOT
HERE TOO TO FORWARD THIS INTO
SOMETHING MORE.
IT'S BASED ON A SERIES OF BOOKS
AND I THINK THEY WERE TRYING TO
MAYBE SET THIS UP FOR A
FRANCHISE AND I DON'T KNOW IF
THEY'RE GOING TO GET IT.
4@I WISH WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER
I THOUGHT IT LOOKED PRETTY GOOD
FROM THE FROM THE TRAILERS BUT
WAS NOT REALLY WOWED BY WHAT I
SAW.
>> OK. 4@
GRETEL AND CONSOLE.
YEAH.
I AM SO DISTURBED BY THIS.
>> YEAH.
YOU KNOW THEY'RE TAKING A GRIMM
WITH ONE TO TAKE ON THE HANSEL
AND GRETEL MYTH GRETEL AND
HANSEL VERY HORROR CENTRIC SPIN
ON IT.
BUT ESSENTIALLY IT'S THE IT'S
THE STORY OF THE CLASSIC FABLE
ABOUT A PAIR OF SIBLINGS WHO
WOULD GO INTO THE WOODS IN
SEARCH OF FOOD AND WORK AND
WOUND UP4@ ENCOUNTERING A WITCH
WHO WANTS TO EAT THEM OR AT
LEAST THAT'S THE WAY THE STORY4@
GOES.
THEY MAY4@ BEND IT A DIFFERENT
WAY HERE BUT THAT'S ROUGHLY THE
IDEA.
THIS IS A LITTLE LISTEN, ALEX.
CRITICS FEEL A LITTLE AS YOU
MIGHT RECOGNIZE FROM THE
MO4@VIE'S4@ END FROM SHARPER SHP
OBJECTS.
SHE WAS YOUNG AMY LIKE OBJECTS
.
AND ALICE KRIEGER HAS PLAYED4@
VILLAINS AND HEAVIES FOR A
COUPLE OF DECADES.
>> THEY'RE4@ RATED MOVIE.
OH, I ALMOST CERTAINLY THINK SO
.
I HAVEN'T A HUNDRED PERCENT
CONFIRMED BUT I WOULD SAY IT'S
BROKEN.
BUT I DIDN'T CHECK THIS OUT.
THIS IS OUT THIS WEEKEND.
I'LL CHECK IT OUT LATER AND
WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT NEXT WEEK.
THAT'S REALLY ALL
