Man On Fire w/ Kiell Smith-Bynoe
from Everyone's A Critic Hosted by Yiannis Cove
In the middle of a very busy schedule, actor and comedian Kiell Smith-Bynoe drops into the studio to defend the 2004 Tony Scott revenge thriller, Man on Fire. We break down the massive divide between the 39% Rotten Tomatoes critic score and the 89% audience score, debating whether the complaints about runtime and violence were justified. We analyze Denzel Washington's legendary performance, Dakota Fanning's prime child-actor era, and the dizzying, choppy camera work of early 2000s action cinema. Kiell also shares behind the scenes stories from the sets of Ghosts and Stath Lets Flats, including the brutal reality of filming the lockdown and football episodes. We also get into his brand new Audible survival podcast Guz and Kiell Will Not Survive, his upcoming improv tour for Kool Story Bro, and why he thinks Deja Vu is a cinematic masterpiece despite making zero sense. Plus, Kiell issues a desperate, public plea to locate British actor Clive Owen, and reveals the story of how kissing a girl left him with a blocked nose for ten straight years. ⭐ Support the show on Patreon for:Episodes 24 hours earlyAd FreeBonus ContentExclusive Polls and Updatespatreon.com/everyonesacriticpod Support the show Support the show on Patreon for: Episodes 24 hours early Ad Free Bonus Content Exclusive Polls and Updates patreon.com/everyonesacriticpod
