Episode #159: "Atomic Blonde" and "His Girl Friday"

Published: July 28, 2017, 3:27 a.m.

This week Dave recounts his unique experience living in Annie Lennox\u2019s old apartment before the guys talk about movies. Then he leads off with a recap of HIS GIRL FRIDAY (5:03), a film he\u2019d seen before, but didn\u2019t remember a thing about, other than it being a prime example of everyone involved with it at the height of their power. Next, the guys cover the week\u2019s big release, ATOMIC BLONDE (13:55), an aggressively okay, hyper-stylized action film with Charlize Theron, where you\u2019re either bored or you know what\u2019s going to happen. You can totally see its big twist coming, unlike the Kevin Costner picture NO WAY OUT, which becomes the subject of a relevant tangent at 22:25. Lastly, Dave wraps things up with his quick thoughts on DUNKIRK (51:17), which he lauds for its flawless direction.
