This week, I welcome Sam Watermeier and Mitch Ringenberg back to the show to review The Crow (2024) in both a non-spoiler and spoiler feature review. Then, in this week’s secondary review, I share my thoughts on Zoë Kravitz’s directorial debut Blink Twice. We also talk about recent movies we’ve seen, the latest AI controversy surrounding Megalopolis, and more.
