Critique-Opolis

By: Jay Jermo & Louisa Jenesta
  • Summary

  • Jay & Louisa deliver a fiery, opinion fueled overview of movies, social movements, cultural behaviors and eating habits - dovetailed with a honey-based recipe and reviews of the most obnoxious movie/media news headlines we can get our eyeballs in front of. For our latest editions, we will be reviewing scripts from the infamous Hollywood 'Black List' (scripts with a ton of 'buzz' that have yet to secure a deal or go into production) - and adding our own casting and story development suggestions.

    Two unlikely neighbors bond over their everyday routine. They invent an outdoor sports game that they enjoy playing together after work to let off everyday stress and just to hang out in general. One day, Michael and Andy go to Michael's doctor's visit together and get some sad news. Michael decides to go through with assisted suicide, but to get the medication, Michael and Andy will have to drive to a town/pharmacy 6 hours away. We watch Michael and Andy go on their trip, purchase the medicine and come back home.

    Louisa: I enjoyed this movie, although it was a bit slow moving. But the subject matter what presented well and I liked the raw, emotional feel of the film.

    I might recommend watching it in two parts.

    Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) vs Matthew Mcconaughey. We squeezed in two flics for fun. I know we said we were going to cover 'Paris, Texas' but we are having trouble tracking down a digital download that doesn't require a subscription.

    For this go around we cover the excess portrayed in Entourage while Vince, Ari, and the boys navigate Hollywood in Vince's opus effort to direct and star in his own picture while Billy Bob Thornton and his pain in the a$$ son, Haley Jole Osment, try to derail it. As usual, Ari has to kick heads in and save the day.

    Next, Mcconaughey, and his team of rag-tag U.S. Navy sailors take on a death defying mission to intercept a crippled Nazi U-boat in the throws of WWII to capture an Enigma coding machine and hopefully, turn the tide of the war. This leads Louisa and I to chat about the loss of other U.S. submarines, particularly the U.S.S. Thresher and the U.S.S. Scorpion.

    Robert Redford and Brad Pitt are paired as a pro C.I.A. station chief and his protege as their career timeline is dissected while one races against the clock to rescue the other from foreign captivity. This was a fast paced espionage adventure by Tony Scott. Considering the careers of all the players involved, you can bet this one does not disappoint.

    I gave my honey recipe listeners a bonus this episode. This go around you're getting 2 recipes!

    P.S. I messed up Cher's height on the last podcast - I make amends here.
