Summary

For this week's second podcast review, I am joined by Dan Bayer & Tom O'Brien to review and discuss the latest film from Academy Award-winner Robert Zemeckis, "Here," which reunites him with his "Forrest Gump" stars Tom Hanks, Robin Wright and also stars Paul Bettany and Kelly Reilly. With a single fixed camera angle, non-linear storytelling, and de-aging visual effects, what did we think of this latest experiment from Zemeckis? Tune in as we discuss these elements, the writing, acting, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
