Listen "One Battle After Another in 70mm IMAX"
Episode Synopsis
Pete and Trevor, and special stowaway Justin, set off to catch One Battle After Another, Paul Thomas Anderson’s modern thriller/drama/satire starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, and Chase Infiniti. We also met our friend Anthony at the theatre who was able to join us for a quick recap. Like good cinephiles, we saw this in 70mm IMAX. Did this movie live up to the hype? Spoiler: yes, it’s very excellent. Listen to our immediate spoiler-free reactions after leaving the theatre, before we give plenty of warning when heading into spoiler-talk. This was week three of our ongoing project ‘Last Action Heroes’. We talk about the careers of Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren via Roland Emmerich’s Universal Soldier. Tune in next week for our discussion of a Bruce Willis movie, comment below or email [email protected] to weigh in on what movie we should cover.
