Summary

A great opening scene should tell you all you need to know about the journey in a superhero film. Mike shares what he thinks are the Top 7 based on their action, tone and impact on the genre. In the Movie Review, Mike gives his thoughts on Napoleon starring Jaoquin Phoenix. The movie is about the general and emperor’s rise to power in the late 1700s and early 1800s and his relationship with Empress Joséphine Bonaparte played by Vanessa Kirby. Mike gives his thoughts on the actor’s performance, the story and director Ridley Scott’s fantastic quote on people who called him about the historical accuracy. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Blumhouse’s upcoming horror movie Imaginary about a young girl who develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey. She starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister.
