1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Great to flick with ben o'she Good mining Man, Good

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: morning guys. Do you have a favorite heist film? The

3
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: Italian Job, The Italian Job, the originally The Bloody Doors. Yeah,

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: that's the Italian Job. The Original Italian Job. What a climsic.

5
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: But Thomas Crown Affair the original. Their remake with the

6
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: with the Pierce Brosnan not so bad. But yeah. The

7
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: highest heist movies, they either range from you know, sort

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 1: of the snappy, witty comedy heist movies to the real

9
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: tense thriller heist movies like Heat or or The Town

10
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: was wonderful here. But it's a very very popular genre.

11
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: So there's a new one coming to Apple TV Plus

12
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: and it stars Matt Damon and Casey Affleck as these

13
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: unlikely allies in a plot to rob the mayor of Boston,

14
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: who's a dodgy dude played by Ron Perlman, who's got

15
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: he's so good at ten and it's perfect as perfect

16
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: as a dodgy mayor who's got tens of millions of

17
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: dollars stashed in a slush fund in his office, and

18
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: so it's basically about, you know, it's one of those

19
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: highest movies where the crooks are the good guys because

20
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: it's kind of a robin Hood thing where they're you know,

21
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: stealing from the rich, and the rich are pretty dodgy,

22
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: so you know you kind of go, oh, well, nickinless crime.

23
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: Not that they're planning on giving them money to the poor,

24
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: keeping it for themselves, but you know, that's how it

25
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: goes budget. And the interesting thing about this film is,

26
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: I guess how much you enjoy it is going to

27
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: depend on how much you can get your head around

28
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: Casey Afflex come back because he's kind of been in

29
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: the canceled wilderness for the past few years. You might remember,

30
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: going back to twenty sixteen twenty seventeen, he was he

31
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: won the Oscar for Best Actor for Manchester by the Sea,

32
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: and it looked like, you know, he had the entertainment

33
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: world at his feet. But as he kind of was

34
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: climbing up that mountain, all of these allegations emerged about

35
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: some of his behavior on set from a twenty ten

36
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: movie I'm Still Here with Wakim Phoenix that resulted in

37
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: civil lawsuits. He settled them for multiple millions of dollars

38
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: and kind of ever since then, he's been a bit

39
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: on the Nose. He had a comeback last year in Oppenheimer,

40
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: but he played, you know, he played a kind of

41
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: you know, pretty evil, mysterious military intelligence officer. So the

42
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: vibe kind of fit with what most people were kind

43
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: of thinking about because Deflick. Anyway, the audience has kind

44
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: of accepted it, but now this movie is kind of

45
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: expecting you to think, you know, remember him from Ocean's

46
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: eleven where he's kind of this lovable Larican And that

47
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: could be a stretch for some people watching this movie,

48
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: which probably why Apple has decided to market it. Mostly

49
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: based around Matt Damon, who's a Biggert star anyway, and

50
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: he plays a former marine who needs to get the

51
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: money so he can pay off his child support stuff

52
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: and see his son again, who he hasn't seen for

53
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: a little while. And he's kind of talking all of

54
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: this through with his therapist played by Hong Chow, who

55
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: was in The Whale with Brendan Fraser and was also

56
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: with Matt Damon in Downsizing a few years ago. She's

57
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: great and so as the heist goes off the rails,

58
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: Matt Damon and Casey Afflecks characters end up taking the

59
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: therapist hostage. Even though she's kind of a bit of

60
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: a willing participant, and they go on the run with

61
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: the authorities taste chasing them, and you know, they get

62
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: into all sorts of mischief along the way. Now it's

63
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,119
Speaker 1: directed by Doug Lehman, who really did some amazing work

64
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: with Matt Damon on the Bourne Identity. He kind of

65
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: changed action movies forever. And this is a director who

66
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: also did Mister and Missus Smith and a bunch of

67
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: other Swingers and Go Back in the Day, So he's

68
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: done a lot of interesting movies and he brings all

69
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: of that experience to this movie. It's it's it's pretty

70
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: well made, but it's one of those films that probably

71
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: doesn't quite reach the heights of those other heist movies

72
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: from the past. It's kind of like a you know,

73
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 1: fairly fairly basic generic plot. Matt Damon is great without

74
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: being spectacular. Casey Affleck is kind of just doing his

75
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: thing that he always does. Pretty much all star cast,

76
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: Michael Stollberg, Toby Jones, Alfred Molina, So you've got a

77
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: lot of those actors who are pretty well known. Michael

78
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: Stebam was amazing in your honor. Oh yeah, he's fantastic,

79
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 1: he's such he's such a good performer, and so so.

80
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: Because it's got a really solid cast, it's it's a

81
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: very watchable movie. It's just not one that you're going

82
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: to walk away from going oh wow, that was just

83
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: fantastic thinking. It's kind of like a classic streaming movie

84
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: that you watch and you go, well, you know that

85
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: killed a night on the couch. Okay, we've got we've

86
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: got to take away typhood. We microwaves some popcorn, everyone's happy. Okay.

87
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: So more Jason Stathan bank job than blowing the bloody

88
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: doors off your bank. I'm thinking of the one where

89
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: they you know, they're after something and they find Princess

90
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: Margaret's photos from and I loved that. That was great.

91
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: Definitely definitely why bloody doors? Now? How many bloody doors

92
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: does it blow off? There? With? Three? Right? Yeah? Then

93
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I'll see you soon. Yeah. If

94
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: you're not still quoting the Lives fifty years down to

95
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: do it. Michael Caine, what a ledge
