episode 59: #059 - Movie Review - Black Widow (NON-Spoiler Review)
We started podcasting exactly 12 months ago in the midst of the pandemic, but finally, FINALLY, we have, FOR THE FIRST TIME, a review of not a years-old classic but a BRAND NEW RELEASE, in theaters, RIGHT NOW, in July 2021. This week we review the 24th MCU film, "BLACK WIDOW."
And... Eh, it's okay.
We discuss the overall feel of the movie, its value & placement within the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the experience of being back in the theater for the first time in 1.5 years.
Grab your tight-fitting leather uniform, guns, electroshock batons, Widow's Bite, and vest of many pockets, as we strike a showy fighting pose with...Black Widow.
Note: Because we wanted to keep this review spoiler-free, and full disclosure, it was one of three episodes we recorded in one night, this review is brief and not our usual deep dive.
*But*, if you'd like us to take a deeper dive and/or spoiler-filled approach on this movie, or have feedback about any other topics, you can contact us at...
