107 – Transformers: The Last War for the Planet of the Apes

A great movie and a horrible movie with special guest Rich Bonaduce! as we review Transformers: The Last Knight and War for the Planet of the Apes. An inexplicable plot. Stupid action. All characters are stupid. British Megan Fox has a PhD and will remind you about it, but she just needs a man. Mark Wahlberg just needs a woman. Convenient. It’s all so terrible, and so boring. But War for the Planet of the Apes is the anti-Transformers: smart, fun, and has something to say. Great blend of summer action and thoughtful message. We need a palate cleanser– too bad everyone else has to wait until July 14 to see it.

13 Hours – It’s a Michael Bay movie. More like live action Call of Duty. But apolitical, for what it’s worth. Gets bogged down trying to humanize the soldiers when they’re pretty undifferentiated otherwise. But big action sequences, like you would expect from Michael Bay. 5.5 out of 10

This year’s Oscars – #OscarsSoWhite AGAIN. Not surprising. Where’s Inside Out? Ex Machina? Hateful Eight? Lots of love for The Big Short.

Andy fills out his Razzies ballot live on the podcast. So much hate for Adam Sandler and Jupiter Ascending.
