“Exposed” Movie Review

Exposed (2016; Declan Dale aka Gee Malik Linton) – Dare Daniel Podcast Episode 20

“Nobody likes you!”

After unsuccessfully suing to have their names removed from the episode, Daniel Barnes and Corky McDonnell enter a fugue state to review the utterly indecipherable Keanu Reeves thriller Exposed.

A catastrophe on every imaginable level, Exposed was originally titled Daughter of God, before getting hacked to pieces by Lionsgate and dumped onto North American VOD.

As ambiguity crosses over into incoherence, Daniel and Corky wonder what’s wrong with Keanu’s face, while also discussing albino aliens, birthday cupcakes and unearned plot twists.

Why did DP dare Daniel and Corky to watch Exposed? “I watched ten minutes of this Keanu Reeves supernatural detective movie, mostly to figure out if Keanu is wearing a prosthetic face.  I couldn’t take the stench of this film long enough to figure it out.  Clearly a job for Team Dare Daniel.”
