      What do you think about a G.I. Joe Month? You could review Rise of Cobra, Retaliation, Snake Eyes, and then Resolute. I know Resolute is not a movie, but it can be you reward.

    The worst thing about Nick and Charlieze Theron's plan is that there is no way they could have predicted that Rudy would pretend to be Nick. Like they were banking everything on him pulling a Dear Evan Hansen! What would they have done if he had decided to actually do the right thing and tell Charlieze Theron that Nick was "dead"?

    By the way, with M. Night Shyamalan being the next subject for the start of the new year, I do believe the next review will be Old (2021). Based on Doug's review of the movie months ago, I have a feeling that will be the next film he'll review as the NC.

    Far from a first among Charlize's many early nude scenes. "2 Days In He Valley", "Celebrity", "The Devil's Advocate" and "Cider House Rules" come to mind as setting a nudity precedent leading up to "Raindeer Games".

    I feel like finding roaches in your food would be one of the most understandable reasons for a prison riot I've ever heard. That's several levels of illegal and immoral treatment. Still not a good reason to riot, but at least understandable.
    Also, a 'fun' fact is that many of the companies that serve food to prisons also serve food to public schools. So roaches in prison food would imply there's at least one school nearby serving roaches to school children.

      I kind of agree with you for real. I thought Doug exaggerated how awful this seemed. I mean Rudy and Nick were both serious cons and Theron's character was looking to hook straight up with a guy just out of prison sight unseen. Do we REALLY think he comes off as bad as NC is making it out? REALLY!? I wonder if Doug was posturing to satisfy some fan elements.🤨

    Honestly, the Santa idea might have made for a better plot to this movie. A convict freshly released from prison becomes a mall Santa and joins with other mall Santas on an endeavor to raise funds for charity by going to a casino and using legal and illegal methods to achieve their goals. That sounds better to me.
