“In this episode of Weekend Viewage, Dex and Pete break down Frankenstein and Train Dreams—two completely different films that somehow make a perfect back-to-back pairing. Opposing takes and direct criticisms make for a sharp, engaging, and unexpectedly entertaining discussion.”

Pete Flores and Dex Ain’t Dead dive deep into The Smashing Machine, starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt. The duo breaks down the film’s most powerful moments, its emotional depth, and The Rock’s transformative performance. The main debate — is this Dwayne Johnson’s career-defining role, and does it finally earn him a shot at Best Actor?
