MONSTER is Incredibly Underrated - Review

Ewan and Lachlan revisit a film they've already reviewed 9 months at last year's Cannes Film Festival. This time they get to share their in-depth spoiler thoughts on the latest film from Hirokazu Kore-eda Monster. In preparation for a movie bracket on Denis Villeneuve, they have been (re)watching his filmography in addition to catching the latest (serious) Adam Sandler movie on Netflix called Spaceman. Ewan went on a binge of new releases with Damsel, Ricky Stanicky, Kung Fu Panda 4, Shogun, Megamind, and the Doom Syndicate and he even made time to see Dune Part 2 again, but in IMAX this time.
