In this episode of ‘What The Film’, Kevin and Vishaal kick off their discussion by sharing their experience at this year’s US Open before diving into the newest pop culture phenomenon K-Pop Demon Hunters (spoiler: Vishaal is not amused!). They discuss why and how this film has managed to penetrate the public consciousness and what this may portend for the types of movies and moviegoing experience to come.
The conversation then transitions into a review of Darren Aronofsky's new film ‘Caught Stealing’ The duo delve into the film’s themes of grief while drawing parallels to classic films. They also touch on the various character dynamics including Austin Butler’s role as leading man. Is he effective in carrying the film? Does the movie successfully unearth those ideas of grief and regret in a way that feels fresh? Does Arronofsky transport the audience into the intense underworld of 90s punk rock NYC? Watch/listen to this at your peril, folks!
