Moviewallas Episode 584 Moviewallas is on YouTube! Welcome back to Moviewallas, your weekly home for thoughtful film reviews, movie news, and lively banter. In Episode 584, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi cover two feature films — one a hyper-stylized period sports drama, the other a spiritual documentary — along with three standout shorts and a few offhand streaming picks. Streaming Picks Quick takes on what’s worth checking out when you’re short on time but craving something new. Left-Handed Girl A haunting, understated movie about isolation and subtle power shifts. Quiet but potent. Bad Shabbos A funny, chaotic, culturally specific film that mines family tension for full cringe and full laughs. The Thinking Game An elegant, intimate documentary from DeepMind about human-AI collaboration and the nature of thought itself. Watch it here: Marty Supreme Directed by Josh Safdie, this highly stylized table tennis drama stars Timothée Chalamet as a rising sports star in 1950s New York. Between its dazzling craft and period detail, it raises great conversation about competition, image, and identity. The Testament of Ann Lee This meditative documentary explores the history and philosophy of Ann Lee, the founder of the Shakers. With a calm pace and introspective tone, the film looks at belief systems, community, and control.

Moviewallas is on YouTube! Welcome back to Moviewallas, your weekly home for film reviews, movie news, and unscripted banter. In Episode 583, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi return with three eclectic films — a genre classic, a melancholic sci-fi indie, and a striking festival discovery. The Running Man The team revisits this 1987 sci-fi action film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, based on a novel by Stephen King (writing as Richard Bachman). With dystopian satire, over-the-top set pieces, and prophetic media commentary, this one sparks discussion about tone, influence, and whether it’s aged like fine cheese or fine wine. Eternity A meditative sci-fi indie that blends time travel with grief, memory, and philosophical introspection. The group discusses structure, pacing, and how smaller films use sci-fi not for spectacle but to explore human emotion and existential questions. Jay Kelly A Tribeca 2024 entry featuring a breakout performance and a quietly bold visual style. The hosts examine what makes this intimate drama stand out, especially among recent indie debuts, and how character and form can create lasting impact. PLUS… Joe shows off his San Diego FC pride A few bonus thoughts on the season’s streaming backlog Like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoy passionate, spoiler-free film conversations with deep dives and laughter.

Moviewallas is on YouTube! Reviews: Rental Family – Wicked for Good – Hamnet Happy Thanksgiving weekend! In this episode of Moviewallas, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi gather for a packed holiday show featuring three very different films – from heartfelt indie drama, to mega-musical fantasy, to prestige literary adaptation. This Week’s Reviews Rental Family Brendan Fraser stars in a soulful tale about an American actor in Tokyo who finds unlikely purpose working for a Japanese “rental family” agency. We discuss the film’s charm, emotional beats, cultural context, and Fraser’s beautifully understated performance. Wicked for Good The second part of the two-film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Rashmi dives into whether the sequel improves on part one, how it ties into The Wizard of Oz, and what works (or doesn’t) about its pacing, spectacle, and storytelling. Hamnet Chloé Zhao adapts Maggie O’Farrell’s acclaimed novel about Shakespeare’s family life and the tragedy that shaped some of his greatest work. We debate the film’s pacing, emotional impact, performances by Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal, and whether the hype helps or hurts. Join the Conversation Have you seen any of these films?
