This episode the guys review Dave’s Pick: Vision Quest.
Synopsis:
A high school wrestler in Spokane, Washington has trouble focusing on his training regimen when a beautiful young drifter takes up temporary residence at his home.
It’s obvious that when it comes to movies that the guys don’t agree on alot of things, but one thing is for certain, The General did not live up to the hype.
So the guys couldn’t convince Dave to upgrade to the Large Popcorn, the movie is still a classic and definitely worth a watch. Stay tuned as we review, The General.
Justin and Joe are on the same page for this review, but Dave stands behind his pick with a mop bucket all of the way. Coming up next: The Blues Brothers.
This week the guys review a fan submission. We want to send a special shoutout and thanks for the submission to Bobby Nicholas for this submission. Bobby’s submission for the guys to review is the 1985 mystery, Clue.
Synopsis:
Six guests are anonymously invited to a strange mansion for dinner, but after their host is killed, they must cooperate with the staff to identify the murderer as the bodies pile up.
Clue made its original theatrical debut on December 13, 1985.
Six criminals, who are strangers to each other, are hired by a crime boss, Joe Cabot, to carry out a diamond robbery. Right at the outset, they are given false names with the intention that they won’t get too close and will concentrate on the job instead. They are completely sure that the robbery is going to be a success. But, when the police show up right at the time and the site of the robbery, panic spreads amongst the group members, and two of them are killed in the subsequent shootout, along with a few policemen and civilians. When the remaining people assemble at the premeditated rendezvous point (a warehouse), they begin to suspect that one of them is an undercover cop.
The movie was released in theaters on September 2, 1992.
This movie is Rated R for strong violence and language.
Justin’s pick of the week: Netflix Original: I Am Mother
Synopsis:
In the wake of humanity’s extinction, a teenage girl is raised by a robot designed to repopulate the earth. But their unique bond is threatened when an inexplicable stranger arrives with alarming news.
Joe’s pick this round is The Peanut Butter Falcon.
Synopsis:
The Peanut Butter Falcon is an adventure story set in the world of a modern Mark Twain that begins when Zak (22), a young man with Down syndrome, runs away from the nursing home where he lives to chase his dream of becoming a professional wrestler by attending the wrestling school The Salt Water Redneck. Through circumstances beyond their control Tyler (32), a small-time outlaw on the run, becomes Zak’s unlikely coach and ally. Together they wind through deltas, elude capture, drink whisky, find God, catch fish, and convince Eleanor (28), a kind nursing home employee with a story of her own, to join them on their journey.
The movie was released in select theaters on August 23, 2019.
This movie is rated PG-13 for Drug use, foul language, nudity, sexual content, violence.
Let’s go to the review and see what the guys thought of it.
The guys all agree that The Peanut Butter Falcon is DEFINATELY worth watching. This is the HIGHEST rated movie so far for the podcast. Stay tuned next time as we review Justin’s pick, “I Am Mother”.
A chance encounter between a down-and-out music-business executive and a young singer-songwriter, new to Manhattan, turns into a promising collaboration between the two talents.
While this movie scored highly on Justin and Dave’s radar it failed to strike the right note with Joe. Joe claims it is due to the storyline but Dave believes it is because there were no explosions.
