Look, a 28 00:01:28,373 --> 00:01:30,333 Speaker 3: lot of people might have gone back to work. It 29 00:01:30,413 --> 00:01:32,973 Speaker 3: might the year might be a little bit daunting. You 30 00:01:33,053 --> 00:01:35,453 Speaker 3: might be thinking, oh my gosh, here we go again, 31 00:01:35,573 --> 00:01:39,493 Speaker 3: back into routine, and you just need some really mindless 32 00:01:39,613 --> 00:01:44,453 Speaker 3: fun escapism at the end of the week, and this 33 00:01:44,493 --> 00:01:49,373 Speaker 3: film very much ticks that box. It's on Netflix. We 34 00:01:49,453 --> 00:01:52,453 Speaker 3: watched it a busy week and my partner laughed a 35 00:01:52,493 --> 00:01:55,453 Speaker 3: little bit too much. I thought, Jack, Oh, okay, I'd 36 00:01:55,493 --> 00:01:57,173 Speaker 3: like to do it's really not that funny, but yeah, 37 00:01:57,173 --> 00:02:00,293 Speaker 3: I just kind of clearly need something really yeah fun 38 00:02:00,293 --> 00:02:01,853 Speaker 3: and Celi to watch and I was just like, it 39 00:02:01,893 --> 00:02:05,653 Speaker 3: was quite funny watching him. It is wonderfully unbelievable. The 40 00:02:05,693 --> 00:02:08,813 Speaker 3: story about these two spies. They fall in love. This 41 00:02:08,973 --> 00:02:12,613 Speaker 3: is you know, Cameron and Jamie. She gets pregnant. They 42 00:02:12,613 --> 00:02:14,973 Speaker 3: decide to leave the business and they go dark, and 43 00:02:15,013 --> 00:02:16,973 Speaker 3: they end up in suburbia and they've got these two 44 00:02:17,093 --> 00:02:20,893 Speaker 3: kids and that don't really like them. They're teenagers, and 45 00:02:21,173 --> 00:02:23,933 Speaker 3: they are suddenly dragged back into the old business and 46 00:02:24,053 --> 00:02:26,093 Speaker 3: they just happen to take the kids with them, So 47 00:02:26,133 --> 00:02:28,573 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, the kids think they're quite cool 48 00:02:28,613 --> 00:02:32,173 Speaker 3: because they discover that their parents are spies. Look for 49 00:02:32,253 --> 00:02:35,693 Speaker 3: all the terrible, fake looking stunts and action, this is 50 00:02:35,693 --> 00:02:38,133 Speaker 3: actually a bit of a family comedy. The funniest lines 51 00:02:38,133 --> 00:02:40,773 Speaker 3: and things are between Jamie Fox and Kimeronda is when 52 00:02:40,813 --> 00:02:43,133 Speaker 3: they're pretending to be normal parents when clearly they're not. 53 00:02:43,213 --> 00:02:46,053 Speaker 3: It's quite a good gag and it does present some 54 00:02:46,173 --> 00:02:48,253 Speaker 3: very funny lines. And the two of them are awesome together, 55 00:02:48,333 --> 00:02:51,813 Speaker 3: Like the chemistry between them is really really good. It's 56 00:02:52,013 --> 00:02:55,333 Speaker 3: very very easy to watch this film. But yeah, no, 57 00:02:55,533 --> 00:02:57,893 Speaker 3: just good night entertainment from Seth Gordon. He's the director 58 00:02:57,893 --> 00:03:00,653 Speaker 3: of films like Horrible Bosses and they watch film and 59 00:03:00,693 --> 00:03:04,933 Speaker 3: things like that. So yeah, light and easy and breezy. 60 00:03:05,013 --> 00:03:07,693 Speaker 2: Jack's sounds good, like a bit of fun, which is 61 00:03:08,373 --> 00:03:10,613 Speaker 2: perfectly reasonable at this time of you. So that's back 62 00:03:10,653 --> 00:03:13,493 Speaker 2: in action. It's on Netflix and next film is showing 63 00:03:13,533 --> 00:03:15,453 Speaker 2: in cinemas at the moment, So let's have a listen 64 00:03:15,493 --> 00:03:16,933 Speaker 2: to We Live in Time. 65 00:03:21,453 --> 00:03:24,493 Speaker 3: I'm so sorry, but do you know each other yet? 66 00:03:24,613 --> 00:03:24,773 Speaker 2: No? 67 00:03:27,973 --> 00:03:28,853 Speaker 1: I run you over? 68 00:03:30,733 --> 00:03:30,973 Speaker 2: Orry? 69 00:03:31,413 --> 00:03:31,973 Speaker 3: Sorry? 70 00:03:33,013 --> 00:03:36,893 Speaker 2: Okay, that's Florence Pew and Andrew Garfield starring together. 71 00:03:37,813 --> 00:03:39,373 Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is we Live in Time, This is 72 00:03:39,413 --> 00:03:41,453 Speaker 3: on at the cinemas, and this is quite different. This 73 00:03:41,573 --> 00:03:46,733 Speaker 3: is a beautiful, a very emotional, heartbreaking, warm film. It's 74 00:03:46,773 --> 00:03:50,333 Speaker 3: a romantic drama. Florence Pew and Andrew Garfield once again, 75 00:03:50,413 --> 00:03:53,533 Speaker 3: probably the chemistry between them is what makes this film work. 76 00:03:54,053 --> 00:03:56,373 Speaker 3: It's just lovely watching these two fall in love. You 77 00:03:56,533 --> 00:03:59,093 Speaker 3: kind of heard how they met just in the trailer there. 78 00:04:00,013 --> 00:04:07,093 Speaker 3: But they're very relatable, likable characters, but also quite unique 79 00:04:07,213 --> 00:04:09,653 Speaker 3: like they have you know, it's not like you're just 80 00:04:09,693 --> 00:04:12,373 Speaker 3: being presented with sort of a cookie cut or of 81 00:04:12,373 --> 00:04:15,653 Speaker 3: a character. But the film is about more than just love. 82 00:04:15,773 --> 00:04:18,253 Speaker 3: It is about becoming a parent, is it about dealing 83 00:04:18,253 --> 00:04:20,373 Speaker 3: with what life throws at you. It is about living 84 00:04:20,453 --> 00:04:23,933 Speaker 3: with a terminal illness, It is about grief. And the 85 00:04:23,973 --> 00:04:27,173 Speaker 3: film is told in a nonlinear structure, so we're constantly 86 00:04:27,253 --> 00:04:31,253 Speaker 3: moving back and forward in time, so where throughout the 87 00:04:31,293 --> 00:04:34,813 Speaker 3: film learning more about these characters and who they are 88 00:04:34,933 --> 00:04:37,813 Speaker 3: as the story progresses, which I think was quite a 89 00:04:37,813 --> 00:04:40,133 Speaker 3: good idea because if you sort of strip it back, 90 00:04:40,173 --> 00:04:43,613 Speaker 3: the story is quite generic. It's quite a predictable ted 91 00:04:43,693 --> 00:04:45,853 Speaker 3: you because that just makes it a little bit more interesting, 92 00:04:46,053 --> 00:04:47,693 Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, it's all about 93 00:04:47,733 --> 00:04:51,813 Speaker 3: the performances. They are excellent, and through them, I believe 94 00:04:51,853 --> 00:04:55,253 Speaker 3: we get very genuine observations of what it is like 95 00:04:55,373 --> 00:04:59,453 Speaker 3: to be diagnosed with cancer, the thoughts, the decisions, the 96 00:04:59,453 --> 00:05:02,133 Speaker 3: conversations that you have to have with your loved ones 97 00:05:02,173 --> 00:05:04,573 Speaker 3: around you. And I suppose in a way, just a 98 00:05:04,613 --> 00:05:06,093 Speaker 3: little bit of a warning there if this is something 99 00:05:06,133 --> 00:05:08,213 Speaker 3: that you have been through, it maybe a little bit triggering, 100 00:05:08,933 --> 00:05:12,333 Speaker 3: take some tissues. There is no way that you cannot 101 00:05:12,333 --> 00:05:14,053 Speaker 3: fall in love with these two and go on this 102 00:05:14,173 --> 00:05:18,013 Speaker 3: rollercoaster ride with them, and it sure produces a few tears. 103 00:05:18,093 --> 00:05:21,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, So that's we live in time, showing in 104 00:05:21,733 --> 00:05:22,813 Speaker 2: cinemas at the moment. 105 00:05:23,453 --> 00:05:26,533 Speaker 1: For more from Saturday Morning with Jack Tame, listen live 106 00:05:26,653 --> 00:05:29,453 Speaker 1: to News Talks 'd B from nine am Saturday, or 107 00:05:29,533 --> 00:05:31,453 Speaker 1: follow the podcast on iHeartRadio.
