This week, we return to the fuzzy, high-contrast world of Tony Scott, as the late great Scott brother cranks his signature style to the max in service of a bored rich girl becoming a bounty hunter. It's 2005's Domino, directed by Tony Scott, written by Richard Kelly, and starring Keira Knightley, Mickey Rourke, Edgar Ramirez, Delroy Lindo, Mo'Nique, Dabney Coleman, Dale Dickey, Lucy Liu and Christopher Walken. It's seemingly a staple of hot couch culture, and dropped in the middle of a very interesting run in Scott's career, but its failure may have scared him into only making movies with Denzel for the rest of his life. And that's fine. Plus, it was a busy week at the theatre as we've got field reports on Challengers, Abigail and (gasp) The Mummy (1999).
Other works referenced in this episode include Beverly Hills Cop 2, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Mummy (2017), Uncharted, Rebel Moon - Part 2: The Scargiver, Atomic Blonde, A Knight's Tale, Mr. Show with Bob and David, Monkey Man, Alien, Casper, Jurassic Park, Dune: Part 2, The Social Network, Ready or Not, Scream V & VI, The Guest, Barbarian, Malignant, Annihilation, Men, Freaky, Pokemon: Detective Pikachu, LOST, 3:10 to Yuma (2007), Smokin' Aces, Exposed, The Night of the Hunter, Stop Making Sense, The Beekeeper, Unstoppable, Deja Vu, Man on Fire, The Taking of Pelham 123, Southland Tales, Training Day, Spider-Man, The Wrestler, Ocean's 13, Final Destination 3, A History of Violence, Eastern Promises, Crimes of the Future, The Fly, SpikeTV's Blade: The Series, and The Royal Tenenbaums.
We'll be back next week, as we gear up for the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes theatrical release by finally watching the capper of franchise's Caesar trilogy -- Matt Reeves' 2017 War for the Planet of the Apes, which just like the entire Apes franchise is currently available to stream on Disney+. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!
