Mike gave out his first 5 out of 5 in over 2 years on last week’s episode. He decides to share more movies he believes are perfect and reacts to a list from Reddit of perfect films with no bad parts. Mike doesn’t think these are the ‘greatest’ movies ever made but instead the ones where nothing feels out of place, have great rewatchability and each feel effortless to watch. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Ready or Not 2: Here I Come starring Samara Weaving and Kathryn Newton. The movie picks up moments after surviving an all-out attack from the Le Domas family, Grace discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game and this time with her estranged sister Faith at her side.
