Review: Roma Feb 22, 2019

Show notes

It’s Oscars season and we’re reviewing the Academy’s big category picks. ‘Roma’ (starring Yalitza Aparicio) is directed by Alfonso Cuaron and has nominations for Best Picture, Best Actress (Aparicio), Best Supporting Actress (Marina de Tavira) Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Original Screenplay and more.

The synopsis:

A year in the life of a middle-class family's maid in Mexico City in the early 1970s.

We put the movie through our critically acclaimed rating system, which grades based on four categories:

1. Did we like it?

2. How did everyone look?

3. Will we steal stuff from it?

4. Is it problematic?

Review: BlackKklansman Feb 21, 2019

Show notes

It’s Oscars season and we’re reviewing the Academy’s big category picks. ‘BlackKklansman’ (starring John David Washington and Adam Driver) is directed by Adam McKay and has nominations for Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Driver), Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay and more.

The synopsis:

It’s the early 1970s, and Ron Stallworth (John David Washington) is the first African-American detective to serve in the Colorado Springs Police Department. Determined to make a name for himself, Stallworth bravely sets out on a dangerous mission: infiltrate and expose the Ku Klux Klan. The young detective soon recruits a more seasoned colleague, Flip Zimmerman (Adam Driver), into the undercover investigation of a lifetime. Together, they team up to take down the extremist hate group as the organization aims to sanitize its violent rhetoric to appeal to the mainstream.

We put the movie through our critically acclaimed rating system, which grades based on four categories:

1. Did we like it?

2. How did everyone look?

3. Will we steal stuff from it?

4. Is it problematic?
