335 — Monkey Man

It's an action-packed, blood-soaked week as Derek Miranda (@DerekMiranda85) and Karen Peterson (@KarenMPeterson) sit down to talk MONKEY MAN.

As always, featured reviews are done in two parts, a NON-SPOILER review with letter grade and brief discussion, followed by a more in depth SPOILER review.

PLOT SUMMARY:

A young man ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he's beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, he discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city's sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Directed by: Dev Patel Written by: Dev Patel, Angunawela, John Collee Starring: Dev Patel, Sharlto Copley, Pitobash, Sikandar Kher, Ashwini Kalsekar, Vipin Sharma, Sobhita Dhulipala, Adithi Kalkunte
