Hello and welcome back to the podcast.
I'm Michael.
I'm Noe.
And we are the Knights of Entertainment, a podcast covering your favorite and unknown
anime, comic books, movies, games, and more weekly.
We appreciate you being here and hope you enjoy the show.
This is what we are covering tonight.
Unfortunately for everybody, we have the third of Robin Williams' movie in three weeks.
Next one of the trilogy.
Now we have the Angriest Man in Brooklyn.
We should do one where a series where we take an actor and watch every movie they've, it's
thing they've been in.
For like, it'd be like, God dang.
Welcome to the Robert De Niro saga.
Oh God, imagine the Nicolas Cage ones.
Welcome to the, oh God.
As many as he's made.
It'd be a good series though.
Yeah.
It'd be a whole little creative playlist on YouTube.
Nicolas Cage saga.
Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Johnny Sins, the porn star.
We watch everything he's made.
I'll leave that one to you.
I'll watch them all.
I'm a fan.
You do good work, Johnny Sins.
Alrighty.
So, this movie is directed by Phil Alvin Robinson, written by Daniel Taplets.
It's based on a book, The 92 Minutes of Mr. Bomb by Ossie Dayen, and it stars Robin Williams,
Mila Kunis, Peter Dinklage, James Earl Jones, and Melissa Leo.
Mila Kunis, she's got a bit of a hot water lately.
Yeah.
Her and Aston Kutcher.
Yeah, they should have shut up.
I would have said nothing.
Yeah.
I'll throw them in jail.
The film was narrated by Robin Williams.
Oh.
Relief.
It was a very good narrative, though, for something that, in my head, I said directed.
Distributed by Lionsgate.
Released in May 23rd, 2014, which is the same year that Robin Williams passed away.
Running time of 82 minutes and it grossed $615,000, or I guess it'd be million dollars.
You know, $615 million.
Let me see.
Because the way they write them.
I'm assuming that's $615 million.
And it's $615,000.
I know it didn't just make that much money.
Yeah, because I was like, $600 million?
$600 million sounds more like $615,198.12.
I'm assuming it's more than that.
My guess is $615 million.
Leads into the zeros at the end.
I don't know.
It does seem like a lot, actually.
We could check.
Let me see.
The movie's done.
So yeah, $615,000 is what it made it in box office.
They broke the bank.
Rotten Tomatoes.
The critics gave it a 9%.
That explains a lot.
Audience gave it a 30%.
Damn, no one liked it?
Is it one of those movies where only I would like it?
Like the movie Lock with Tom Hardy?
I found it funny.
I fucking love that movie.
Is this the movie where, what's his name?
CK Lewis?
Is that how you say his name?
Louis?
Louis CK?
Louis CK where he bangs Mila Kunis?
Um, oh yeah.
I don't want him to see him bang anybody.
Not that it's you, Louis, but you know.
Right.
Come on.
This is what some of the critics had to say about it.
For the runtime of about 80 minutes, this treatment still feels padded with moments
that feel utterly useless because they're not fully developed or simply used as a matter
of convenience.
And that was by Nicholas Bell, but he reviewed it a one out of five on August 30th of 2019.
Why would you wait that long to review it?
Because he, he, he, as a critic, he had a backlog.
I'll put it here.
I'll have the last one.
It's like Jesus Christ though.
We have Morgan Rojas from Cinemacy.
The Angriest Man in Brooklyn is surprising, but for all the wrong reasons.
This is from 2018.
We have Tony Macklin.
The Angriest Man in Brooklyn is like a brilliant, brilliant clown stumbling off stage accompanied
by a kazoo.
Scott Nash says the message of the movie is not to waste the time you're given.
That includes watching movies as bad as this one.
You should always watch a bad movie.
If you're trying to be like a screenwriter, you should watch a lot of movies.
Yeah.
You'll see the good and the bad.
I mean, have you seen Fantastic Four, that remake?
Yes.
I'll never understand who got paid.
Who, whoever wrote it, right?
Must have been, it must have been a banger, right?
Cause cause they greenlit it.
Yeah.
And then whoever rewrote it must have lost their fucking minds.
Justin Putzman, tonality and creatively messy and filled with an entirely too much shouting.
In the case of The Angriest Man in Brooklyn, less would have been much, much more.
Jeff Beck, The Angriest Man in Brooklyn is a film that's never sure which way it wants
to lean, leading to a very confused tone for the movie that has nothing original to offer
in this, uh, clitch filled, cliche filled storyline.
I don't know where I got a clitch.
I think, cliche, cause he didn't have the, uh, the little, the E, the cliche.
The little E with the little.
Yeah.
He didn't have that.
Or I guess he got an apostrophe on top of it.
He just put clish.
See, he's a critic and he can't even fucking tie him.
This is, um.
Guess I auto correct.
Does people dirty.
I'm always saying fuck, not duck.
If anybody has a question about it, it's fuck, not duck.
Leonard Moulton wrote, the angriest man in Brooklyn doesn't seem to know what chord to
strike if he hears wildly from mad cat forest to social satire to sentimental family drama.
Peter Dubridge says a Schmaltz opera that indulges Robin Williams most melancholy ticks
and themes.
And it goes on and on and on.
Is that me or has this trading on my like four times since we started recording?
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
It's it's fun to live close to try to train tracks.
All righty.
We have Robin Williams as Henry Altman.
We have Mina Mila Kunis as Dr. Sharon Gill.
We have Peter Dinklage as Aaron Altman.
My boy, Peter Dinklage in there.
That's that should be a porn star name.
I don't know what he's waiting to his life.
What?
It's a dream.
That's you may go into porn.
Melissa Leo is a bet.
Altman Hamish link later is Tony Altman.
James Earl Jones is Ruben Sutton Foster is Adela.
Richard Kind is Bixfield.
Let's see.
Louis CK is Dr. Felding.
Wait, is he in this movie or does he just narrate it?
Robin Williams?
Yeah, he's in.
Okay.
He's definitely got it.
And Olga Marides as Jane.
Well, so we start off stuck in Brooklyn traffic while on his way to a doctor's appointment.
Henry Altman, which is Robin Williams.
A car is suddenly struck by a taxi.
Propelling him into rage, he unleashes upon the taxi driver.
Since he just got hit.
This is what?
He says unleashes.
And what the fuck?
Oh, I read.
Yeah.
And then like he unleashes, I'm like, did he like pull his dick out and start?
He burst on him.
What?
He fucking started hitting him.
At least what?
That's how the movie starts.
He's already been in a pissy mood.
Arriving at the Brooklyn hospital, Dr. Sharon Gill, who is covering for Henry's normal doctor,
Louis CK, whom she is having an affair with.
Of all the people to have an affair with, you picked Louis CK?
Nothing against you, Louis CK.
But come on.
And he's as soon as he goes in there, Henry Altman is like, oh, son of a bitch.
Not my normal doctor.
Yeah, I'd probably feel the same way.
Who the fuck is you?
Examining scans of his brain, she informs him that he has a brain aneurysm with a poor
prognosis.
And he's like, the fuck is it?
Just tell me what the fuck is it?
Nagry Robin Williams.
Yes.
He erupts during insults at her and demanding that she tell him how long he has to live.
She tries to dodge the question, but Henry is persistent.
Panicking and overwhelmed because she's kind of on pills too.
Oh man, come on, me like pain pills.
Yeah.
You're better than this.
Or like psycho, like where is she?
Antipsychotics?
Not antipsychotics, like pills like probably Xanax.
Anxiety pills?
Yeah.
So she panics and she's, Sharon sees a cover of a magazine that says 90 minutes and blarts
that out to him.
And he leaves irate.
After that, talking with another doctor, Sharon realizes the consequences of her actions.
She will surely be fired and lose her license for telling him this.
She resolves to find Henry and put him into an immediate care center.
Cause she did, he walked out like 90 minutes.
Jesus.
Son of a bitch.
Did this turn into the movie Cranked?
Have you ever seen Cranked?
I believe so, oh boy.
That's a roller coaster for you.
Henry arrives at his family law firm, storming into a meeting between his brother Aaron and
clients.
Aaron's Peter Dinklage's character.
My boy.
My man.
He asks what a hypothetical client with only 90 minutes to live should do.
One says make love to his wife.
One last time, Henry then rushes home to his estranged wife, Beth, only to catch her having
an affair with her neighbor.
Three, like three summit is before I die.
Meanwhile, Sharon learns Henry's case is serious enough that he could potentially die at any
minute.
So he, she, she, she, what?
Yeah, she just didn't know that.
Oh boy.
Yeah.
That's right.
He didn't, that's right.
He didn't, oh, he doesn't have time to turn into Walter White.
No.
Jesse, you wanna cock it?
Don't watch him breaking bad right now.
Jesse, let's cock it.
Sharon arrives at Henry's office where she tells Aaron of his brother's diagnosis.
Wait, let me, I was watching Breaking Bad, right?
And spoilers guys, if you haven't watched it, but you need to get on that.
There's a scene where his wife wants to divorce cause she finds out he's making meth.
And he, so he moves out to a different apartment and she calls him on the phone cause he was
trying to harass her and try to get his son back, right?
And she, she tells him on the phone, he's laying on the floor cause he just had a bender.
He's in his underwear, you know, it's fucking, you know, it's Hank or it's not Hank, it's
Hal from Malcolm in the Middle.
So he's just in his underwear.
And she says like, if you don't leave us alone, I'm going to get a restraining restraining
order.
And he climbs to the phone, he grabs the phone, the phone doesn't disconnect, don't worry
cause they can talk to her cause she left her on his voicemail.
And he just flips and he's like, we're restrained, restrained us, restrained us.
And he starts fucking rubbing his dick, restrained us.
I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
And I went back like Netflix couldn't look at my algorithm.
I went back 15 times to the point of restraining us and he's grabbing his dick, restrained
us.
He's so fucking mad.
I'd never get over a fucking Hal from Malcolm grabbing his dick.
He did it once before when he, when he quit his car wash job.
Wipe down this.
He fucking grabbed his dick, wipe down this.
Go back to the movie.
Restraining us.
So she arrives to Henry's office where she tells Peter Dinklage, his character, Aaron.
Oh, wait, so let me, he's with their brothers or their brothers?
Peter Dinklage and Rob Williams in this movie are brothers.
Cool.
He tells her that Henry was once a kind, happy man, but became embittered after the death
of his son, Peter, two years prior.
Wow.
Henry makes more stops on his quest for redemption, including attempting to contact his surviving
son, Tommy.
He has, he had disapproved of his son's choice to become a professional dancer, creating
a rift and not a stripper, not a professional dancer like that.
That would have been funny.
That would have been awesome.
If he goes to the strip club, writing his son just fucking, just clapping cheeks on
the dance floor.
Fucking his cheeks are just fucking bouncing.
So I need to talk to you son.
Can you get down from the pole?
He makes a recording telling Tommy that he loves him, but flies into a rage halfway through
and passes out.
Wait, what is he, what is he, how much is he tempering?
He yell.
Cause he basically, he goes to make a recording of himself cause he's wanting to film himself
one last time cause he thinks he's going to die.
So he goes into a pawn shop that James Earl Jones is the store person there.
Interesting.
But James Earl Jones plays a character that has a bad stuttering problem.
So he goes in there and he's like, I just need a, I need a camera.
I need a camera.
Something right.
He goes wanting the camera.
Do you want the, this one?
Oh, he wants the losses.
He's getting more and more and more pissed the entire time.
He even then fuck you then when he left, he started recording himself and he asked the
homeless person if he could film it.
Why did you put it on the fucking table?
I don't know.
I don't know what the fuck's going on.
It's funny.
So you got the homeless guy trying to film him to show the, uh, that, uh, like he's trying
to make a video for his son saying that he loved him and stuff like that.
But then he says that he gets more and more pissed about all the things that he hasn't
said.
So he starts going into kind of a rage and then she passes out from them.
And what the homeless guy walks out with the camera?
Yeah.
Well, fuck it.
When Henry regains consciousness, he goes to the Brooklyn bridge and tending to jump
all.
Sharon begs, Sharon finds him there, apologizes for her earlier behavior, admitting that she
has no idea when he might die.
How'd she find him?
She kept going around trying to figure out where the fuck he was.
That is she, she works plot line.
Yes.
I've ever heard of she, uh, she found the homeless person that had the camera and she
paid him for it.
So she got the camera back.
How, wait, how does she know about the camera?
Because she, uh, is she like following where he had been?
It's like she somehow makes the detective.
Kind of.
She played almost a detective character.
Yeah.
So she finds him eventually and she begs him not to jump saying that her career and by
extension of her life will be over if he does.
And at this point he doesn't give a fuck.
I imagine why.
Why would you do that to someone?
Why?
Henry still leaves off the bridge.
Oh wow.
However, and uh, Sharon rushes into the river, dragging him to shore because he floats down
the river.
He didn't, uh, how high is the Brooklyn bridge?
So you crack all your shit hitting the ground.
You start hitting the water.
It is decently high.
But yeah, this movie is highly illogical.
She realizes it's a second chance for life after she gets to the shore and he's still
alive and asks her to help him make things right with his family.
Checking her watch, uh, he sees, uh, he only has 19 minutes left after she told him, cause
this is all happening within her telling him he's got 90 minutes to live.
Did she just tell him that she made a mistake or something?
Yeah.
So what, how does he still see his 90 minutes?
I guess he doesn't believe her.
God dang, this movie's, Sharon, what?
Sharon hails a cab driven by the same cabbie who hit Henry that morning.
The men begin to fight, but she momentarily blinds the driver with pepper spray and they
take off in his cab.
So they still his cabin.
She's not exactly, I mean, she's not a great person.
Not that I mean, she's trying to keep her job.
She ain't doing a good job to begin with by stealing like fucking cab.
Well, she could always say, why had to get him to the hospital by pepper spray the duck.
When into the Brooklyn dancing Academy, Henry finds Tom, uh, Tommy sitting alone to begin
to dance.
And just like the, whenever Tommy was a little boy, after sharing a moment with his son,
Henry informed Sharon that, uh, he does not want to know when he will die.
He only wants to know that he will try, uh, that he will try and lead a better life and
that they can both find happiness after he makes fun of her.
Basically.
He was like, you need to get off the pills because she tells him how it's like, my life
is going to be over and it's like, I've been taking pills.
I mean, cause she starts going off too.
Cause she doesn't can't take it no more.
I've been taking a doggy by Louis CK.
Yeah.
I saw that scene somewhere without the context of the whole movie.
He then collapses on her shoulder, exhausted.
Henry goes to the hospital and lives for another eight days.
I'm giving him time to share special moments with his family in that time.
She's just so he does end up dying eight days.
Yeah.
Not 90 minutes, but eight days.
One year later, after Henry's death, bet Tommy, Aaron and Sharon are all together on a ferry
celebrating his life and spreading his ashes into the East river.
The captain of the cruise ship tells them it's illegal, but they berate him in Henry's
honor and started saying, who the fuck are you to tell the same way that he would have
them?
Yeah.
And that's how the movie ends.
Hmm.
Got to watch it.
It's it's not a 10 out of 10.
It doesn't sound like it's a, but I, I, I think it's a 10.
I think that a lot of the people that watched it were expecting something else from Robin
Williams.
So they were expecting an extremely high level of comedy in it.
And it's more of like a maybe a five and a half, six out of 10, but not a 30.
A 30 I think is a little bit too low.
But that is that concludes the, the trilogy of Robin Williams movie, Robb Bill Williams.
And what's really weird is like, uh, in those last couple of years, he made a couple of
movies where he's committing suicide.
You shit.
It's like, that was a bit of a fight.
Fuck.
He jumped off a bridge.
His son died in that other movie.
Yeah.
Well, that in the weirdest way he could have possibly died by fucking jacking off to a,
with a fucking belt around his neck.
Yeah.
So yeah, Robin Williams, he started making some really dark, even those last couple of
years.
I had a lot of it in mind.
I would think so.
But anything else to add before we head out for the day?
How, how rough is the scene with Mila Kunis and Lucy Kay?
Were you, were you just like, ah, I caught out of nowhere?
Yeah.
Oh God.
You're like, oh no.
It's like, oh no.
You know what caught me one time like that?
An unexpected scene was a movie called, ah, fuck, I forgot what it's called.
It stars, um, Frank Robertson and, uh, Aubrey Plaza or is it Audrey Plaza?
I think it's Audrey.
I forgot what it's called.
And don't quote me with the title, but basically the, the, the, the woman, this woman leaves
her husband cause she sees that there's a article in a newspaper or something or in
a commercial that one of her ex lovers or boyfriends or someone that she knew was back
in town and having a seminar at the hotel.
So she leaves, the husband gets upset and he follows after her with one of his friends.
But one of them, they're looking for, and was one of his, one of his friends decides
to go to the bar and get a drink.
This, uh, uh, bigger woman, the guy's big as it is, and he's a large man and the woman's
also large.
They're all, they're both BBWs.
They're big, beautiful, uh, well, BBP, big, beautiful people.
And uh, uh, he takes a big, the whole swig of beer and then does a burp and she giggles,
right?
Cause I guess she found his burp attractive and then like a, like that, like that's, and
then they're just fucking doggy.
Like both of them are ass naked.
There's just so much meat on screen and he's screaming, who gave me that beer?
And she's screaming, I gave you that beer.
Who gave me that beer?
I gave you that beer.
And I'm just like, whoa, this was, this was, I don't know.
I was like, let me rewind real quick.
It's like, it caught me so out of, like I was, cause sometimes you just like watch the
movie and it just catches you.
There's a scene that'll catch you and you're just like, it will like, it'll like, you might
be watching it like the background, right?
And then it'll just like catch you like, whoa, what's going on?
See for me with the Lucy case, ain't it skip, skip 15 seconds, skip 15 seconds.
Nobody wants to see.
You gotta watch it all.
No, not when I'm with Mila Kunis.
No, not Lucy Kay.
Oh God, no.
Nobody wants to see that shit.
I'll see everything once.
You only live once, might as well enjoy the life.
All right, and with that, we will see you guys on the next one.
