John Carter

In the words of special guest Sean David this week's film is a white savior fantasy about a guy who can jump really high and punch really hard. Titular hero "John Carter" is a late 1800's gold prospector who while in search of riches is swept away to Mars. There he proceeds to slaughter 1000's of native martians with his newly discovered superpowers that he obtained simply from being a human on Mars. This film gets a lot right but might try to do too much in terms of story and genre. Some of what's here feels shoehorned regardless of how enjoyable it might be. Nevertheless so much of what is positive about this film is in the nuance which we predictably spoil so make sure you watch the film if you have any inkling to do so.
