In Episode 58 below, we have movies like woah, talking about American Ultra, The Gift, Call Me Lucky, and People Places Things. First, I tease the book about ‘80s films that I’ve been working on with my friend Bryan Krull, prompting a deeper conversation on ‘80s movies. Then Dave shares his thoughts on The Tribe because he finally saw it. I’m up next to talk about how The Gift subverts expectations, before Dave goads me into spoiling the movie’s big twist. After that, Kris and I discuss why we weren’t fans of American Ultra (hint: it’s about a stoner secret agent and plotted like a stoner wrote it). Dave follows up by quickly exploring why People Places Things is so sluggish and by-the-numbers. And last, but not least, Kris reviews Call Me Lucky, a great documentary by Bobcat Goldthwait about Boston comedian and activist Barry Crimmins.
