Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 203: Upgrade
In Episode 203 below, we review Upgrade, Won’t You Be My Neighbor?, and Adrift. This week kicks off with a special edition of Riedel’s Crewind, as Dave and I talk Won’t You Be My Neighbor? (4:12), the Mr. Rogers documentary that has been charming critics and audiences the world over. Next up, Kris talks Adrift (14:18), a true story starring Shailene Woodley as a young woman left to fend for herself and her injured partner after a hurricane destroys their boat. It’s a tad uneven, but the sheer physicality of Woodley’s performance and the fascinating focus on just how taxing survival can be. This leads Dave to quickly recap Dead Calm (25:08), before Dave and I wrap things up with gritty, violent, and inventive sci-fi flick Upgrade (31:02).
