Ben O'Shea: It’s Really Difficult To Make A Movie This Bad And Have It Be This Entertaining

from Lisa & Russell · host GOLD96FM and iHeart Australia

96FM’s resident movie reviewer Ben O’Shea dropped by to review The Toxic Avenger, calling it more of a reboot than a remake, with a fresh take that strays from the original storyline. Peter Dinklage takes on the lead role, while Kevin Bacon plays the villainous pharmaceutical boss, as the film follows a quest to right the town’s wrongs. Barra couldn’t help but ask the big question has Hollywood run out of ideas? The answer is yes but Ben loved the film anyway. Tune in to find out what he rated it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
