Nate and Ryan discuss their summer movie watching and try to decide which action movies are worth watching. A recent viewing of 1987’s The Running Man with an eye to Edgar Wright’s upcoming remake fuel a conversation that hits heavily on Jackie Chan’s 1985 classic Police Story. They also discuss Friendship, the recent A24 dark comedy starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd, which Nate and Ryan fittingly saw on a Guys’ Night Out. Hear their thoughts on Friendship (the movie) and the effect of seeing certain movies in a group.
Our 5-star movie discussions continue with a deep-dive into the 1984 masterpiece Amadeus, directed by Milos Forman. Adapted from his stage play, Peter Shaffer’s examination of the ersatz rivalry between Mozart (Tom Hulce), a prodigious genius, and his traditional-minded admirer/covetous underminer, Salieri (F. Murray Abraham). On top of the heaps of awards, Amadeus is simply regarded as one of the great films of all time. Listen in as Nate and Ryan discuss what it is that makes this biopic stand out among all the others.
