We discuss the nostalgic elements that we all could relate to and show appreciation for the diverse representation. Special thanks to Julianna Giordana for coming back as a special guest to keep the guys from going off track with mansplaining.

Today we discuss the Netflix original film The Adam Project (2022). This movie deals with the tricky concept of time travel and features some surprisingly touching emotional moments. It stars Ryan Reynold, who we’ll readily admit is not our favorite actor. So to balance our bias, we brought on special guest Chris Vazquez who is a huge fan of the Reynold’s sarcastic charm. Will he be able to convince us that Ryan Reynolds is a better movie star than, say, Tom Cruise?

Deep Water (2022) is an erotic psychological thriller on Hulu starring Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas. The mood of this film, as one of us describes it, is like you’re stuck at an awkward dinner party and want to look away but can’t. The chemistry between the sexy Ana de Armas and the sad Ben Affleck is believable, yet questionable. The movie features a number of adult situations, so consider this your warning for inappropriate jokes. Didn’t we just review a family movie last week?—-talk about range.
