Happy post hump day aka Friday eve? Anyways today is Thursday which means new podcast day! Our review is about a film you probably never heard of but stars someone you have The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot starring Sam Elliott. Outside topics include MTV Unplugged, Letterboxd, and Captain Marvel.
The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot is not what you would expect. It really caught your hosts off guard. The title comes off as a really fun B movie but it’s not. This movie is very serious and very sad. It is not a bad movie but it is not incredible either. The acting is great especially by Sam Elliott. The sets and cinematography are breath taking especially the outside shots in Canada and Germany. The amazing title that throws you for a loop definitely hurt the ratings from your hosts. Matt enjoyed the movie but did not think it was great. He gives the film 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike Talent also liked The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot but was stunned by the tone and feel of the movie. He awards it 2 out of 5 Reels.
Next week we will be reviewing a western that came out the same week as Captain Marvel that is being overshadowed by it big time, The Kid based on the infamous Billy the Kid. Our second film is a brand new Netflix Original that dropped yesterday, Triple Frontier. It is an action film that takes place south of the border and has an amazing star studded cast to boot! Chat with you next week everyone.
