Episode #138: Gemini Man

Let the two pods a week continue!  Today Mike and Matt discuss Ang Lee’s newest film starring two Will Smith’s, Gemini Man.  Topics more engaging than this film include Fargo the TV series, bingeing, and two Willy’s!

We won’t waste your time reading our show notes like we wasted our time seeing this movie, Gemini Man is not a good film.  It is not horrible but it is not worth the price of admission to a theater.  The script is just flat out awful. Matt thinks it might be because this project has bounced around Hollywood for 10 years ricocheting off of a slew of writers.  Will Smith’s acting is always great especially in both young and old roles.  Mary Elizabeth Winstead is an incredible actor but she felt under utilized in this film.  Most of the stunts and action sequences were great except one involving a motorcycle, it was complete fantasy to say the least.  The CGI young Will Smith looked great until he started talking.  There was just something really off whenever he talked.  Matt and Mike both agree you should not see this film in the theater.  Wait until it is on a streaming service you pay for or maybe rent it at Redbox but that might even be pushing it.  They both gracious award Gemini Man 2.5 out of 5 Reels.         

Make sure to stay to the end of the pod.  Matt included his interview with Leza Live and Local on Magic 99.1 that aired yesterday.  Do you like the addition of his radio interview to our podcast?  Email us and let us know!  This Thursday Harvest Horror Fest continues with the 1984 Stephen King classic Children of the Corn.  It is streaming right now on Amazon Prime Video if you want to watch it before our next episode.  Thanks for listening and we will chat at you Thursday!
