Aaron “Brick” is finally back with The Movie Group Chat, and for his pick he brings How to Make a Killing—a dark comedy that somehow gets us rooting for Glen Powell while his character murders his way toward a family fortune.

Brick is all-in on the movie and Glen Powell, but the rest of the group has questions.

Is this an “eat the rich” movie? A satire? Or, as Chet puts it, a new genre of “Millennial Revenge”? And what does the movie actually have to say about ambition, capitalism, morality, and the line between being a good person and simply doing what it takes to get ahead?

We break down Glen Powell's undeniable movie-star charisma, Margaret Qualley's scene-stealing performance, Zach Woods' comedy, the film's tonal shifts, the controversial voiceover, and an ending that completely changes how we look at Beckett's journey.

We also ask whether How to Make a Killing would have worked better as a miniseries—or whether spending more time with these characters would actually take away some of what makes them work.

And by the end, one thing is pretty clear: Glen Powell is a movie star. Jeremy and Brick both come back to the idea that they'll watch just about anything he's in.

Join The Movie Group Chat and tell us: Were you rooting for Beckett—or were we all completely insane for wanting him to win?

This week, the group chat is divided over Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice.

Jeremy had fun. Chet thinks the movie deserved a shot in theaters. Justin… did not like it.

We break down Vince Vaughn’s performance playing the same character at two different points in his life, the movie’s approach to time travel, its tonal swings between action and comedy, and whether movies like this are getting lost in the endless ocean of streaming content.

Plus: Jimmy Tatro, Keith David, Gilmore Girls, old-school opening credits, what we’d actually do with a time machine, and why Vince Vaughn might be one of the most underrated comedic influences of his generation.

Was this a missed theatrical opportunity or exactly where it belonged?

Welcome to The Movie Group Chat.

We finally saw Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey — so we called an emergency Movie Group Chat.

Jeremy, Justin, Chet, and Aaron break down the IMAX spectacle, Matt Damon’s Odysseus, the parallels to Oppenheimer, and the film’s deeper ideas about war, regret, forgiveness, family, and finding your way home.

Plus: Athena, Penelope, the Sirens, our favorite scenes, Nolan’s filmmaking choices, and Jeremy’s completely unbiased perspective as someone who “worked with” Christopher Nolan on Oppenheimer.

Join the club. Join the conversation.

Welcome back to The Movie Group Chat!

This week, we're discussing John Carpenter's They Live (1988) starring Roddy Piper and Keith David.

What begins as a cult sci-fi action film quickly turns into a conversation about consumerism, media, power, capitalism, social commentary, and why They Live feels more relevant today than when it was released. We also break down John Carpenter's direction, Roddy Piper's performance, the legendary alley fight, Keith David's unforgettable role, and one of cinema's most iconic one-liners.

Plus, plenty of laughs, movie tangents, and the kind of conversations that only happen in a real group chat.

Next week's movie: Mike and Nick and Nick and Alice (Hulu).

Welcome to the very first episode of The Movie Group Chat!

Every week, we pick a movie, watch it together, and dive into the conversations that start after the credits roll.

In this episode, we're discussing First Reformed (2017), directed by Paul Schrader and starring Ethan Hawke. What begins as a character study quickly evolves into a fascinating conversation about faith, activism, hope, despair, guilt, redemption, and the role of the Church in a changing world.

We also break down:

• Ethan Hawke's phenomenal performance

• The film's symbolism and visual storytelling

• The controversial ending

• Our favorite scenes and biggest takeaways

• What we believe Paul Schrader is really asking the audience

Plus, we share a few hilarious stories from Sundance before announcing next week's movie: They Live (1988) by John Carpenter.
