Hate Watching The Machine

Send us Fan MailEver wondered what makes a comedy movie tick? Could it be the jokes, the plot, or the characters? In a roller-coaster of an episode, we pull back the curtain on 'The Machine' starring Bert McRusher...Bert McRacken...Bert....We'll stick with Bert. We don't just skim the surface, we dig deep, discussing everything from the misleading trailer to Bert's acting abilities, and even draw comparisons with other films following a similar narrative. Despite its flaws, we argue that 'The Machine' has its moments of lucidity, but not enough to make it bearable.Buckle up as we take a detour to a decade-old stand-up special and how its humor seems to have stagnated over time. We dissect the audience response to the trailer and the unusual elements in the movie including Bert's relationship with his daughter and some absurd plot decisions. But that's not all. We delve into the movie's narrative flaws, exploring bizarre behavior, questionable jokes, and a battle scene that could only be described as ill-conceived. As we wrap up, we invite you, our listeners, to share your thoughts and engage with us on this fascinating analysis of 'The Machine'. It's a wild ride, and you're going to want to buckle up for this one!Be our friend!Dan: @shakybaconTony: @tonydczechAnd follow the podcast on IG: @hatewatchingDAT
