This week on End Credits, it's the Year of the Monkey! Well, technically it's not the year of the monkey for another four year, so maybe it's the week of the monkey, and a year for revenge!! On this show, we're going to review the new action thriller Monkey Man, which is all about revenge fights, and we're going to take a moment to talk about the best movie revenge fights so far!
This Wednesday, April 10, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss:
Best Served Cold. Monkey Man is a tale of revenge, but so are a lot of movies. They say that the best revenge is living well, but most of the time it seems that the best revenge is fighting as many guys as possible between you and the source of your betrayal. Before getting into Monkey Man, we will talk about other movies were the best revenge is not served cold, it's served with a kick-ass fight and lots of over the top and sometimes gratuitous violence!
REVIEW: Monkey Man (2024). Rescued from the ash bin of the Netflix algorithm by Jordan Peele, Dev Patel's directorial debut Monkey Man is now in theatres everywhere. The story follows a man seeking revenge on the corrupt police chief that murdered his mother, which leads him into the deep rot of India's political and societal systems that keep the people under thumb. It's been, perhaps unfairly, described as "John Wick in India" but it's been impossible to not admire Patel and his vision, especially as a first-time filmmaker. But did it work for us?
