Daniel Reviews “Relay” and “Eden” (2025)

Eden (2025; Ron Howard)
GRADE: B
*Now playing.
IMDB Synopsis: “Based on a factual account of a group of outsiders who settle on a remote island only to discover their greatest threat isn’t the brutal climate or deadly wildlife, but each other.”
Relay (2025; David Mackenzie)
GRADE: B-
*Now playing.
IMDB Synopsis: “A broker of lucrative payoffs between corrupt corporations and the individuals who threaten them breaks his own rules when a new client seeks his protection to stay alive.
In this perpetually theme music-less mini-epsode, film critic Daniel Barnes reviews two new releases opening today, Aug. 22.
Relay is a slow-burn thriller starring Riz Ahmed as a shadowy middleman for reluctant whistleblowers, while Eden (2025) is based on the same true-life murder-mystery covered in the documentary The Galapagos Affair: Satan Came to Eden.
Listen along as Daniel talks to himself about Marco Scutaro, emerging currencies, Mayberry elegies and much more!
