VENGEANCE Movie Review **SPOILER ALERT**

[@BoskoShabazz]

This may be the best movie review channel on KZbin. Y’all review literally everything

[@wanya_telborn]

Yes! I Agree 💯 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@lakeem946]

I thought the same about Ben. As a director he's great, but he needed someone with a little bit more range. Also Ashton Kutcher was an interesting villian.

[@seanmarquis2216]

I liked the film more than you guys but do agree with some of your criticism. My biggest issue was Quentin's confession at the end, he admits everything for the dumbest reason. He is risking prison and ruining his life for what? They could have solved this by simply having Ben discover the truth on his own and confront Quentin with it. He spilled the beans a little easy for my taste all while being recorded no less.

[@trinat347]

Recordings that aren't cleared by a judge can't be used in court and police didn't care to investigate.

[@beneichhorn9552]

You guys are the best- I’ll watch your reviews even if I have no interest in watching the film!

[@Airfriedfroglegg]

I couldn’t stomach Ashton Kutcher’s character. He’s too himbo to be a wise cowboy.

[@4no3bo3dy]

Funnily enough, I’ve asked “What’s so special about In n Out?” and Californians often don’t have a concrete answer either.

[@fishjellyfilmreviews]

Interesting…I would say they’re quality burgers (for the price), and the stores have great customer service.

[@FafiLPDoll]

@@fishjellyfilmreviews but nobody has ever said that. They just say it's good.

[@martinzaehringer1697]

This movie stayed with me a lot longer than I expected it would. Kutcher's moving monologue about a recorded voice keeps someone alive even after they've died, is simply crass rationalization for his actions. How casually the girl who OD's is dragged out of the tent, and no one bats at eye. The "after party." Somehow it really got under my skin.

[@Maggie-jk8lc]

I saw this film at a screening where BJ Novak came out afterwards and did a q&a and I'm still pissed he didn't choose me when I raised my hand because my question was how the hell did her family get his cell phone number?? In her phone she even saved Ashton Kutcher's number as his

[@FafiLPDoll]

Questions I had also. Lol her phone was locked so how did they find him?

[@BlockchainCircles]

I agree with Joseph about where it should have ended. Those last 20 minutes didn't really add up or make much sense when thinking about characters. But I did enjoy it overall.

[@richgranados11]

You guys raise good points. This movie left me confused. It’s clear that Novak is still bringing The Office style cringe comedy to this film. They kept repeating their philosophical views over and over again.

[@taylormade9748]

So basically he’s playing Ryan from the office when Ryan moved to New York

[@Daniel145D]

Why does he have to be attractive? One of the main facets is that he isn’t at all what he thinks he is

[@puspavelai8353]

Liked the comments both of you made on the core of what this story was based on. Characters opening up to engage in unpredictable ways? The twist is perhaps this small-town/rural family with a real baddie, needed an outsider to get "Vengeance?":D

[@wadejohnston4305]

Have been lookin forward to this movie. Thanks for the review gentlemen! Love hearing your opinions as always

[@tjc8422]

Absolutely agree with this entire review. Also got a good laugh from your BJ comments 💀 he looks like a cross between Woody Allen and Dustin Hoffman to me but without Dustin’s charm. Wish he had cast someone less irritating but I feel like his character was supposed to be utterly unlikeable. The whole movie felt like an unserious attempt to make a Noah Baumbach film. I wish it had less contempt for its own characters and maybe took out some of the “jokes” and condescending platitudes.

[@lwilcher100]

Fun Fact: Lio Tipton/Analeigh Tipton “Abby” was a top 3 finalist on Americas Next Top Model (cycle 11).

[@robbielex]

I found them quite comely starring in "Two Night Stand" (2014) co-starring Miles Teller and showing free on Amazon Prime Video.

[@dashx1103]

That was back when my wife and I still watched Top Model. We were really pulling for Tipton to win it all. Too bad she didn't. Further fun fact: she had a cameo appearance on the Big Bang Theory when Howard used satellite tech to identify the Top Model house then snuck in to meet the models.

[@violetedge83]

In defense of the whataburger question... No 1 in TX can really articulate why they like whataburger. It's no different than any other fast food restaurant here in TX. I mean they have some good sauces but that's it. Great review 🖤 I'm going to check this 1 out

[@Thumbhit1]

Tried Whatisit in KC, never again except maybe breakfast

[@arozeisarozie]

Everybody here always says it’s because the patties are fresh and never frozen. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I thought the burgers were the reason. I’ve been living here for years. It’s like you go to Chick-fil-A for fresh chicken and Chicken Express for iced tea!

[@tigerking8165]

No one can tell you why they like In N Out, Shake Shack, White Castle, etc, either. That’s how regional fast food work, it’s familiarity with comfort food. That’s how your local sports teams work. No one can back their passion with anything rational. That’s not a weakness of the writing, if anything it’s to humanize these Texans are like the rest of us. They like local stuff and can’t tell you why.

[@TechnicJunglist]

It's amusing that BJ played basically the same character in The Office just turned way down. This premise has been done before but never gets old to me for example Cannibal Holocaust or Texas Chainsaw where we underestimate the seemingly foreign or dimwitted opponents. It seems like a fun nighttime watch, thanks guys. (Joseph you might eventually have to watch Schindler's List. It's rough but Ben Kingsley is astounding.)

[@danielle5491]

I absolutely loved the raya line 😂 both as a one off and as a nod to the fact that they aren’t as out of touch as Ben is assuming they are

[@alliereed4247]

I absolutely adore you guys!!! Y'alls personalities are just the best & y'all bounce off each other perfectly! My 98 year old south Alabama grandmother thinks y'all hung the dang 🌙, and I get the credit for introducing Y'all to her 😁❤

[@fishjellyfilmreviews]

❤️

[@mistybaylock]

just found y'all looking for a review for this movie. Great review and y'all are so cute!

[@dulcimerrafi]

To be fair, I didn't realize that The Battle of the Alamo was a humiliating defeat until recently, for very much the same reason as Ben.

[@jujutaylor2186]

Another great review from my favorite dynamic duo thank you 😃

[@skdesign98]

Nice review. I saw this film last night and really enjoyed it. I'm not an Ashton Kutcher fan but I really liked his character in this movie. This movie definitely had alot of messages in it. I actually thought the ending was good and somewhat ironic especially the fact that Ben ends up using a gun when he actually appears to have a disdain for guns throughout the film. I'd give this film a 4 out of 5.

[@dashx1103]

This movie was great. Didn't expect it.

[@Anothernammee]

Another great review guys ! Will definitely watch this one ! 💜

[@AntsMovies]

Thank you for the review, just caught this one and I ended up really liking it! Note: Joseph you must see Schindler’s list. I know it’s a tough watch but my god is it good. I’m with you on slavery movies but damn Schindler’s List is just incredible.

[@stevennelson45]

I saw this today, liked it, and agree with Joseph to give it a 3. Whataburger is a “thang” in TX. Also, the Holy Trinity in West Texas is God, Trump, and Texas Tech-home of the Red Raiders. Ashton Kutcher was brilliant, and although I knew he was going to be shot, I got so enthralled with the last scenes jumped when Ben shot him. I believe there were a lot of family interaction scenes edited out. Thanks again for your videos! Oh, and my Southern mama often said, “Bless your heart”, to people or things they did she didn’t like 😁

[@killerpodcasts]

Agreed. I was enjoying the film. Kutcher stole every scene he was in. And the ending really crashed the movie for me. Felt so out of place. Also doesn't make sense why the brother suddenly liked BJ again. There was an excellent movie in the script somewhere. It just needed someone to comb through it after BJ finished it.

[@dianabeecheneralkire5998]

I still struggle to understand why BJ Novak is seen as an appealing screen presence. I believe Lio changed their name last year when they came out as queer/nonbinary on their Instagram. I remember because they were one of my favorites on ANTM.

[@xGMOx]

He comes to care about this girl by experiencing what she meant to all these "very real" people, and he chooses to avenge humanity. She meant something, as everyone does; and that's what made me feel.

[@janhochman4474]

You guys rule. Joseph, your patience and tolerance about Nick's feelings about Shindler's list is so endearing. I do object, as a Jewish gal, to your thinking that BJ is not attractive. Really?? To a woman from the Tribe, he is quite hot. Yes, the big brother is all-American hot, but for some of us -- uh-uh, Ben it is. Keep the reviews coming!!!

[@FafiLPDoll]

Yes Ben is a hottie in a tech geek millionaire way.

[@novasite7795]

I wonder if it would have been better for BJ Novak and Boyd Holbrook to have switched the characters they played? Holbrook would have been better playing a self-absorbed douchebag.

[@spazarellapoet8735]

Hey can we have a meet up event like 10-20 fans get to go watch a movie with you guys and fellowship after about the movie and stuff?

[@fishjellyfilmreviews]

That would be fun

[@stephlalalitta]

I concur just another 20% effort in writing could have made this movie completely level up. 💯💯💯 Tehe

[@kellykelley2649]

ok - I am going to check this out. Thanks for the review.

[@veganpeace7890]

I hated B.J. Novak's character on the office too. I will give this a chance when it comes to Netflix.

[@watchingitallhere]

Totally worth a watch. Great movie. All movies have flaws but this one was very engaging and entertaining.

[@sergioalcantar3290]

Love the half-Romulan brow...

[@FafiLPDoll]

He's been watching videos of Abby every night. He's become what Kutchers character said. He knows that he's right and that he will get away with it. And he's so smug about it. So Ben just went a little Texas and solved it with a .45. Basically but that's why he shot him. He deleted everything bcuz he didn't want the family to become characters judged by the public. Bcuz like Quentin said, everybody's got a take.

[@hughiegibson1716]

I think the point of chekov’s gun was meta/foreshadowing to the end. Mason brings him a gun.

[@heglanddoci7059]

You missed the point guys. Whats on the nose isnt the message

[@scarfaceg3465]

I agree about Schindlers list. It is brutal.

[@limetreess]

I would love if you guys could review RRR on Netflix. It’s such a huge insane amazing film I’d love to hear your take.

[@fishjellyfilmreviews]

We’re definitely interested in watching it.

[@ericmiller5603]

Tough one. So many things to like AND dislike! The film presents interesting ideas but could have been executed better. I liked “Mason” and Kuchner’s character; I disliked the Mayer/party scene and the “Why Whataburger?” scene.

[@adit1939]

Douchez there’s got to be a movie title with sequels

[@meaningOFis]

i walked out b/c of ironic hick but not really hick characters; too on nose. writing too pc to lean into realities or even stereotypes of rural folk. the 6flags fyi almost made me stay just to see if more tea was spilled

[@PoSHEmediaglobal]

I thought this was all about the girl not being really dead and taking revenge on Ben cos he is a douche Would have been healing for me ❤️‍🩹🤦‍♀️

[@bethperry2308]

I can't explain this, but if you're from Texas, you just like Whataburger. I think that's a very place specific joke.

[@SugarPills111]

Nobody: Not a single soul: Joseph when he says the ending of a movie: “ so the gag is,”

[@YTFlove4ever]

1435 was I Love you mucho (for the number of letters in each word) Heart sees heart was 545

[@pearlady22]

I think B.J. Novak is quite good looking. That was the first thing I thought when I saw your thumbnail for this review.

[@erikchristensen822]

I didn't like Novak in Annette. His acting was rotten whereas Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard crushed it.

[@robertshaver1612]

Thank you. Helped me understand this movie. Agree with closing summary.

[@niktour352]

Is Lio nonbinary?

[@megcormack681]

💙

[@karbaramaxey2832]

After mentioning staying away from movies about the Holocaust or slavery, I said “I feel u 100%. Oh I say 100% a lot too” lol

[@donaldgibson4375]

Very good movie My kind of humor.

[@wanya_telborn]

Bj Novak just can’t act But hey that’s me

[@MiuMiu-dq6xt]

I found this an impossible story so i clicked off early on 😕

[@sickleweed3270]

lol as soon as you said BJ Novak's character is a womanizer (who actually successfully gets lots of women too?!) I knew this movie ain't for me...I can't suspend my disbelief that much. Good writer but dude should probably stay behind the scenes. I felt the same way when he was on The Office. Loved your review tho; thank you for the joy!

[@mashenka6189]

He is so unattractive.. I hated his acting..loved Ashton…he was captivating..
