Episode #181: Tributary – The Old Guard

Welcome faithful listeners! This week Mike and Matt reviewed a Netflix Original that is destroying the charts, The Old Guard. Not too far off topics include Aeon Flux, favorite Pixar Films, and are movie theaters ever coming back.

What a great surprise of a film! This one really came out of nowhere. The Old Guard is a fantasy action movie based around immortality and world history. The world building is excellent especially the juxtaposition of Charize Theron’s character Andy and KiKi Layne’s character Nile. The old versus the new shows you this unique world from two different perspectives helping flesh it out. Mysterious Mike really enjoyed The Old Guard giving it 3.5 out of 5 Reels. Matt thought the film was incredible and can not wait for the inevitable sequel awarding it 4 out of 5 Reels.

We hope the guys will be talking about a movie next week. Mysterious Mike Talent did not do his homework. Hopefully, he will even though it is late and we will get something watched and reviewed for you. Thanks for listening to our pod, hopefully you enjoyed it as much as we did. Chat at you next week!
