Marty's Premise and Safdie's Stakes

This is our NEW RELEASE review podcast, ONE HOT TAKE.

Safdie’s great gift is complication. The pleasure is watching the bill come due—again and again—without the film ever losing velocity. Safdie and co-writer Bronstein’s structure is ruthless; setups bloom into havoc, payoffs land with cruel timing.

Synopsis:

Marty Mauser, a young man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell and back in pursuit of greatness.
