From the art of kung-fu mastery to artistic genius, we explore a couple of wildly different new releases, “Fist of the Condor” and “Paint”.
Johnny Depp has helped audiences through some difficult times. We are not talking about any of his movies. We mean his trial with Amber Herd, which provided hours of entertainment during some dark moments. Just when it looked like Depp’s career was over, he is back, and you will not believe where. Plus, we dive into our excitement over the cast details for MaXXXine.
We recently saw John Wick: Chapter 4 and loved every second of it. When he found out one of the cast was in their own kung-fu movie, we knew we had to watch it. And we were not surprised, as Fist of the Condor had one of the most satisfying endings we have ever seen. But the rest of it was a confusing mess. Was a Renegade reference enough to save it?
Anyone who sees the posters for Paint will immediately think of Bob Ross. While The Joy of Painting host was a major influence, the IFC film tells its own story.
We discuss its varied comedy, well-written characters, and the strange decision to completely ignore one of the central characters. We also discuss the reason why the movie is receiving so much hate.
Plus, Genre of the Future!
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:
Last week, we talked about Smoking Causes Coughing, which is unlike any other superhero movie out there. It brings together Power Rangers, anthology storytelling, and a talking fish.
ABOUT THIS PODCAST:
Every week AIPT Movie Editor Nathaniel Muir and his cinema partners in crime Danny Martinez and Blake Heath discuss indie and genre movies you have have never heard of, the ones you cannot hear enough about, and the ones you never want to hear about again.
Episode 225: Matt Angel & Suzanne Coote on 'The Wrath of Becky'/ The Attachment Diaries (2023)/ Shark in Venice (2008)
We begin with a talk about two of this year’s biggest and most controversial releases. The latest Indiana Jones film was met with a mixed reaction at Cannes. Meanwhile, on this side of the ocean the director of The Flash releases a huge spoiler. How is this good news for Indy and bad news for the DCEU?
One of our most popular episodes was a show we did centered around erotic thrillers. For whatever reason, we have not covered one in a long time. This week we return to the subject with a fresh take on the genre out of Argentina. The Attachment Diaries is a stylish neo noir that tackles some heady topics. The film is well-written, boasts two strong lead performances, and is unafraid to get graphic. But does pacing and an abrupt ending destroy all the good will?
There are arguably more movies about sharks than any other subject. There were so many that it was almost impossible to fin this week’s feature on Tubi. Shark in Venice proves the number of good ones is much smaller. Are two big name stars (at least, the siblings of A-listers) enough to save a plot that is unsure of what it wants to be?
