Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 105: Ghostbusters

In Episode 105 below, we review Ghostbusters, The Infiltrator, Chevalier, and Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru. This week Kris shares his revolutionary idea for a new mobile game before he and I jump right into the new Ghostbusters (at 3:24). Kris tends to be more negative about it, but I also reveals some aspects that don’t work for me. We try to take time to talk about the things in it we enjoy though, like the gadgets, the camaraderie between the characters and individually hilarious players like Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. After covering this film about women made by a man, Kris transitions into commentary on Chevalier (at 25:52), a Greek movie about men made by a woman. He describes why this “bone dry” comedy is a metaphorical dick joke and tells me and Dave why we absolutely need to see it. Next up is Dave to discuss Tony Robbins: I Am Not Your Guru (at 35:00), a Netflix documentary directed by Joe Berlinger. Dave describes why it’s a concert movie, while sharing insights from his recent interview with Berlinger. Finally, I close with The Infiltrator (at 49:38), a tense undercover caper with Bryan Cranston. I catch Kris and Dave’s interest with my commentary on how the cops are always barely one step ahead of the criminals they’re chasing in the picture.
