The recent PLANET OF THE APES series seemingly ended with a trilogy. Now, we've got another one, as we step into the KINGDOM of the apes generations later. Do they still have the magic formula that made us all fans to begin with?

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

Just like last summer, it's time for The Gos and Emily Blunt. But this time, they're together! With action! And comedy! But why didn't it pull in more money? What lesson will Hollywood learn? And, how good is it?


Yes, I apologize for skipping over grades in this one. My mistake. Here are our grades for THE FALL GUY:
Kent - B+
Richard - B
Brian - A-

The Fall Guy (2024)

It was one of the most-anticipated movies of 2023. Then it was one of the most-anticipated movies of 2024. So did Luca Guadagnino's CHALLENGERS live up to the hype? Is Zendaya peaking? Let Richard and Kent help you decide.

Movie Draft 2024

This entire year, we're doing a special podcast series on the career of Quentin Tarantino. It WAS going to be in anticipation of his 10th and final (?) film, THE MOVIE CRITIC, but now that he's not doing it anymore, we need to react accordingly. But the show must go on, so let's get to our next in the series, 1997's JACKIE BROWN.
