Episode 245: Both Sides Now Worth Listening To

Four new theatrical exclusive titles, a pair from Netflix and another on Apple TV highlight this week’s review edition of the show. Erik Childress handles the first of Netflix’s sports documentary series Untold with the most infamous event in NBA history (Malice at the Palace) and the latest talke from Pablo Larrain about a woman taking back control of her life in the most dramatic fashion (Ema). Steve handles duties on two of the big theatrical releases of the week with the sequel to a surprise 2016 horror success (Don’t Breathe 2) and the biopic of Aretha Franklin (Respect). Then the pair team up to see John David Washington’s latest troubles on foreign soil in the thriller, Beckett. They revisit the opening night film of this year’s Sundance which set a record deal. Does CODA live up the hype? Finally they weigh in on the video game (and everything else-inspired) Free Guy with Ryan Reynolds. 0:00 – Intro 2:52 – Don’t Breathe 2 17:33 – Malice at the Palace 25:56 – Beckett 38:55 – Ema 46:51 - Respect 58:37 – CODA 1:15:00 – Free Guy 1:37:44 - Outro This is a public episode.
