REVIEW – The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance (or Our Birdman Review)
| 24. October, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Plus John Wick, The Heart Machine and CITIZENFOUR

This week, Patches and David wander in one continuous take around the animated, existentially empowered Birdman. The new comedy from 21 Grams and Biutiful director Alejandro González Iñárritu has a lot on its mind — or does it? — and the Fighting in the War Room guys suit up in this action packed sequel to last week’s episode. Coming next week: Birdman 4 (we’re skipping 3). It’s that and mentions on John Wick, The Heart Machine, and Citizenfour on this week’s review episode.

The Judge, Inherent Vice and Film as a way of Getting Butts into Theaters

This week, Katey, Patches and David all got to see Inherent Vice and talk amongst themselves while Da7e bides his time until December when he gets to see it with the rest of you. Katey’s Tidbit questions if Robert Downey Jr is even trying anymore and Patches defends The Judge. Finally everyone piles on the plan to release Interstellar earlier to 70MM Film projection theaters and if this newest gimmick to get people out of the house is actually gonna work.

Plus Starred Up

This week, Katey, David, Patches, and Joanna head down to indie territory to review two movies that divided: Starred Up, the prison drama starring up-and-comer Jack O’Connell and God Help the Girl, a whimsical musical from Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch. What do these movies get right and wrong about youth? That and your answers to this week’s lightning round on 20-year-old movies that need the IMAX treatment, on this week’s review episode.
