Crying on An Airplane

Rivals of Amziah King Review

Heart of the Beast
 Trailer

What makes the perfect movie to watch on a plane?  Mike and movie writer John Farrar each share their top picks on what movies make the perfect flight experience. From Michael to Avatar: Fire and Ash and more! In the Movie Review, Mike talks about The Rivals of Amziah King starring Matthew McConaughey. He plays a guy named Amziah King who is a beekeeper, musician, and anchor of his community, reunites with former foster daughter Kateri after many years apart, and fends off threats to his honey business. Mike talks about going to a screening with Matthew McConaughey where he performed songs from the film afterwards. Mike talks about the impromptu comedy set McConaughey delivered, his performance in the movie and how the film bends genres and packs an unexpected punch.  In The Trailer Park, Mike talks about Heart of the Beast starring Brad Pitt. After surviving a plane crash, a former special forces soldier finds himself trapped in the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness with his combat dog. Mike talks about how Brad Pitt might be entering his older action hero era.
