The Whale stars Brendan Fraser in his triumphant return to the big screen, but it's also a notable return for Darren Aronofsky, whose last film mother! (2017) still has a lot of folks scratching their heads. No matter. Based on the 2012 play by Samuel D. Hunter (who writes the screenplay for his own adaptation), The Whale has emerged as an awards favorite for Brendan Fraser and A24, as well as a notable showcase for Sadie Sink and Hong Chau. But critics are certainly split. Are the Cinemaholics split as well? Tune in now to find out in this special bonus episode of the podcast.

Intro Music: “Picture Book” by DYVN, 9ICK & Louk

Borderlands Review

Dídi Review

Trap Review

This week on Cinemaholics, we kick off with a review of Borderlands, directed and co-written by Eli Roth and based on the hit video game no one's really cared much about in about a decade. Next we take a look at Dídi, a Sundance favorite and indie dramedy darling directed by Sean Wang in his directorial debut. Then we finish out the show with Trap, the latest thriller from M. Night Shyamalan, this time starring Josh Hartnett and closing off Shyamalan's unofficial "the kids are not all right" trilogy, which kicked off with Old.

Show Notes:
00:00:00 – Borderlands review
00:27:20 – Dídi review
00:43:20 – Trap review

Our intro music this week is “Wakaba” by Hocoro Beats.

Borderlands, Dídi, Trap

Fine, we'll take a stab at reviewing this movie. This week, we revisit the Marvel Cinematic Universe and then some with Deadpool & Wolverine, which stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as...I mean, you get it. Deadpool & Wolverineisn't just the third Deadpool movie, it's also the latest MCU movie (technically?) and effectively a tribute to the 20th Century Fox Marvel movies. The director happens to be Shawn Levy, who also directed...well, we'll get to that, don't worry. The cast also includes (spoilers). The film came out on July 26 through Disney/Marvel and has a 128-minute runtime.

Our intro music this week is “Non Peut-Etre” by daoud.

Deadpool & Wolverine

Talk about emotional stakes. This week, we share our (ahem) feelings on Inside Out 2, the direct sequel to Pixar's breakout hit Inside Out from 2015. This time with Kelsey Mann taking over directorial duties in his debut alongside screenwriters Meg LaFauve and Dave Holstein. The film features the voice talents of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Lewis Black, Diane Lane, and Kyle MacLachlan from the previous film with newcomers Maya Hawke, Kensington Tallman, Tony Hale, Liza Lapira, Ayo Edebiri, Lilimar, Grace Lu, Sumayyah Nuriddin-Green, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Paul Walter Hauser. Inside Out 2 opened to huge box office on June 14 and has a 96-minute runtime.

Our intro music this week is “Non Peut-Etre” by daoud.
