Michael Bay continues to make Michael Bay movies with a choppy action film about brothers on an L.A. heist, and Chris Pine and Thandiwe Newton try to untangle their past as CIA operatives and lovers.
Sex scenes and fight scenes work best when they tell you something about characters, and it sound like that something Bay not understand but Pederson does. Anyway, me would probably go see two-hander with Newton and Pine if they were two painters whose backstory involved watching it dry, so this one sound great.
I’m curious: are there any Bay movies you think are genuinely worthwhile, Scott (and/or Keith)? I know a lot of people cite The Rock or Pain & Gain - the latter, especially, seems like it could be a candidate for New Cult Canon, come to think of it.
I'm a sucker for spy movies about how much it sucks to be a spy, so I'm looking forward to seeing All the Old Knives.
Bay’s films have never once vibed with my sensibilities but consider me intrigued by the idea of a Heat: Oops! All Waingro edition.
