What is up, bros? I'm Caleb. And I'm Jonathan.
And we are a couple of bros on a mission to give
you guys the most detailed movie reviews out
there with as little bias as possible. Welcome
to the All Bros. This week on the podcast, I
watched a few things this week. Nothing too worth
discussing, but I think we're going to try and
do the... the connect the stars thing again just
for for funsies because that was like that was
super fun last week that was yeah no it really
was yeah um so yeah we're gonna do that and then
we're gonna get right into our breakdown of love
hurts which i this is one i consider like a robe
and a romantic action film or rom -com an action
rom -com Yeah, that's how I describe it. Yeah,
it's kind of like a hybrid of movie types because
I don't feel like there's too many like this.
Like, I know a couple. Like, there's Night and
Day. Oh, yeah. I feel like there's one with Ashton
Kutcher and What's Her Face from Grey's Anatomy.
Oh, shit. Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
I can't think of the name though. Yeah. But anyway,
so yeah, that's what we'll be doing this week.
So yeah, hope you guys are ready for that shit.
Yeah. So without further ado, let's say we get
right into it. Let's do it. Hell yeah. Hey, this
is Mikey T. And Grant. And Billy. And we are
Failing Hollywood. Yeah, you're listening to
the All Bros Podcast with Caleb and Jonathan
Rose. Or just Rose. Is it Rose or Jonathan? I
don't know. Caleb calls him Rose. He introduces
himself Jonathan. It's a thing. But he's as sweet
as a rose. He's a very nice person. And as generous
as a Jonathan. Yes. All righty. We need to come
up with a name for this segment. If this is going
to be a consistent thing. Yeah. For those of
you that didn't listen last week or are new to
what this is, there is a website called connectthestars
.xyz created by Eric Bai and Amanda Hum. And
what this does is it gives you two random movie
stars. And the goal is to connect them in as
few movies as possible. So, like, with... It's
kind of like the Six Degrees to Kevin Bacon,
if you will. But with just two random movie stars.
So, yeah. So, without... Further ado, let's see
who we're trying to pair up this time. Oh, shit.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dev Patel. Oh, shit.
Dude, I don't know if I can name one movie that
Dev Patel is in. Dude, I know a few that he's
been in. I can't think of any that I know someone
else in that movie, though. Oh, we are so royally
screwed. Oh, this is going to be fun. All right.
Shit. I think we have to start with Dev, because
once we get someone connected to Dev... Like,
I think we could be good. Okay. Fair. Okay, so
what has he been in? I know he's in The Green
Knight, but I don't know anyone else in that
movie. What else? What else? He's in The Life
of Pi, I think. Oh, yeah. I forgot about that
movie. He was in The Last Airbender, the M. Night
Shyamalan movie. Oh, yeah. I think he played
Zuko. I don't know anyone else that was in that
movie, though. Yeah, dude, me neither. There's
another movie where he's really good at math.
It's not Million Dollar Baby, is it? No, Million
Dollar Baby is the one. Boxing movie, isn't it?
Is it Slumdog Millionaire? Yeah. Slumdog Millionaire.
Yeah, that's what I'm trying to spell. Shit,
I don't know what else is in. I don't know who
else is in that. This we might need a. We don't
know. I think. Yeah, let's just keep Arnold.
Yeah, we'll keep Arnold. For funsies. But yeah,
well, we have to do someone else other than Dev
Patel because we are not familiar enough with
his work. No. Jennifer Lawrence, on the other
hand. OK, we can work with that. Yeah, we can
definitely work with that. All right, I'm trying
to think of who could be a common threat. Like,
who's Arnold worked with? I'm trying to think.
Has he worked with, like, Woody Harrelson at
all or, like, Bradley Cooper? Has he? i'm trying
to think like who was in like the expendables
movies that's what i'm thinking too because i
mean you got sylvester you got um uh oh my gosh
there's a number of people you can go with that
route i mean jason statham i mean hell you could
freaking bring chuck norris into it if you really
wanted to yeah that's true um Trying to think
of like. Of other people. Because Bradley like
Bradley Cooper, I think, is a decent thread because
he's worked with a lot of people, too. That's
true. So maybe silver linings playbook and then
we. Yeah, let's go from there. bradley cooper
so we got yeah so we got bradley cooper on here
so arnold easily we can i the i'm trying to think
of who else he's worked like i'm thinking i mean
we could connect danny devito has danny devito
done anything with bradley cooper now that i'm
recalling i think what other i apologize if anyone
can hear the rain can you hear it yeah oh yeah
i can hear it like damn yeah it's probably going
to get significantly worse shit dude i hope it
stops when you have to go back inside it probably
won't never quite been that lucky um shit i feel
like bradley cooper has done something with danny
devito i can't recall what though Gosh, this
one's tough. Yeah. Damn, Arnold, why do you have
to be so hard? Arnold, we can connect the expendables.
And then let's see who we got. Okay, Terry Crews.
Has he done anything with Bradley Cooper? Or
even Jennifer Lawrence? I can't think of anything.
Bruce Willis, too. Oh. Oh, shit. What's that
movie? Or has Jason or not? jason joseph gordon
levitt done anything with jennifer lawrence that
you can recall no not that i can recall okay
i think i'll just start connecting like random
so we got terry crews Sylvester Stallone. Jason
Statham. Just for shits and giggles, I don't
think Woody Harrelson was in this. Wait a minute.
Wasn't Liam in Expendables? He might have. Which
one would that have been? Four? I don't know.
I have a feeling it would either be two or three.
Ah, it was four. Or no, two. Oh, okay. Okay.
Well, that's freaking easy then. Then we can
just connect them with Hunger Games. There we
go. Hell yes. That one was hard. Yeah, that one
was a pain. Alright, Kevin Hart and Kate Winslet.
Oh no. What? Oh no, just like such an interesting
duo. Is there any way that Kevin Hart is connected
to Titanic? To who? Is there any way that Kevin
Hart is connected to Titanic? You're thinking
going through Leo? Yes. Ooh. I feel like they've
been in a movie together. or no, no, no. Has
he, has Kate Winslet done anything with Will
Ferrell? I feel like they have. Yeah, I'm sure
they have. Like I'm thinking like Will Ferrell,
maybe fricking Bryan Cranston. She didn't do
a voice in the Lego movie, did she? I don't think
so. Ah, nope. Darn. Worth a shot. Has she done
anything with Josh Gad? I'm going to be honest,
man. I don't know a lot of Kate Winslet's movies.
Really, all I know is Titanic, and I feel bad
because she's a great actress. She is, and she's
been in so much shit. Yeah. But I can't recall
much of her stuff either. Okay, so we could do
Titanic. Then... DiCaprio. Okay, and so Leo's
worked with... Oh, no, I'm thinking of someone
else. I'm thinking of Kaley Cuoco, because I
was like, oh, we threw Once Upon a Time, but
that's Margot Robbie. Oh, you... Damn. Wait,
did you say one of them has worked with Bryan
Cranston? Kate Winslet has? Kevin Hart's worked
with Bryan Cranston. Oh, yeah. What was that
movie called? The Upside or something like that?
Yeah. The Upside. Brian Cranston. So can we connect
Brian Cranston to Leo? Guys, I know Cranston
has been in. That might be a tough one. I think
it might be easier to connect Will Ferrell to
Leo. Yeah, that's fair. What's that movie? Is
it Get Hard? Yeah. All right, Will Ferrell. Then
Leo. No as well Farrell worked with I mean he's
worked with Jamie Foxx before right I'm trying
to recall they don't think he was in Has Will
Ferrell or Kevin Hart or any of them worked?
Because I know Leo's worked with Jonah Hill.
Have any of the others worked with Jonah Hill?
That's a great question. Yes, Will Ferrell did
the Lego movie. Oh, yeah. And Jonah Hill was
the Green Lantern. And then they did... Shit,
what's the one you're thinking of? Oh, my God.
Wolf of Wall Street. thank i'm sorry thank you
that's what it is all right we finally did it
yeah now i i just gotta look up now like i feel
like kevin hart has done a movie The Mountain
Between Us is a Kevin Hart and Kate Winslet movie.
Oh. Good lord, dude. Yeah, damn, dude. Yeah,
so we could have connected them that way. At
least we got it. did it say borderlands oh yeah
that's not the heart's not in that one that's
idris elba our address is elba oh let's see what
else kate winslet's been in because i feel like
there's a movie that like could have tied them
a bit better fair but yeah like i said i feel
so bad that i don't know more of her filmography
than titanic okay so she was in like all of the
the divergent series Oh, shit. Oh, god damn.
We could have done movie 43. Oh, son of a bitch.
That freaking would have opened up a world of
freaking actors for us. True that. Avatar, Titanic,
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Holiday.
That would have brought in Jack Black. And Jack
Black and Kevin Hart would be in Jumanji. Yeah.
Damn. Damn. Damn, this one. We suck this round.
Yeah, no kidding. All right, one more. Yeah,
let's do it. See if we can leave out on a high
note. I hope so. Robin Wright. Oh, shit. i don't
know that robin right and jennifer aniston good
lord okay um robin wright we could bring her
in through wonder woman okay Which could bring
us to Chris Pine. Now, is there a way to connect?
Who do you think would be easier to connect?
Tom Hanks to Jennifer Aniston or Chris Pine?
Oh! There's some... What? Oh, God. There's a
movie with these two. With freaking Chris Pine
and Jennifer Aniston. Oh, God. The name's escaping
me. I don't think I know this one, man. What?
I don't think I know this one. Yeah, because
it's... Oh, shit. It's got Charlie Day. Horrible
Bosses 2? Yeah. Oh, come on. Ha ha! There we
go. Hell yeah. I don't think it gets much shorter
than that. No. Okay. came into this one thinking
that we were screwed, but look at that. Yeah.
Chris Pine's always a good, pretty, like a good
connector. That's true. You want to talk about
someone that's worked with everyone? Seriously.
All right. Yeah. Well, that concludes whatever
this segment is going to be called. We can probably
just call it connect the stars. Yeah, that's
true. Um, but yeah, without further ado, let's
say we get into this week's. Oh my God, dude.
Yeah, dude. Like, is it like, can you hear me
well or no? Oh yeah, I can hear you fine. Okay,
cool. But like, God damn. Like, I can't imagine
how loud it is over there. It's pretty freaking
loud. Like, geez, dude. All right. Well, without
further ado, let's say we get into this week's
breakdown. Let's do it. Hell yeah. If you are
new to our breakdown system, we have split movies
into eight different categories that we individually
score to come to a final All Bros letter grade.
The eight categories that we are going to be
scoring this week are story, writing, acting,
character development, effects, music, costumes,
and then we're going to give it our own personal
score at the very end. All of these numbers get
magically added up and spit through our algorithm
and give us a letter grade to compare this movie
to others of a similar grade. So if you have
not seen Love Hurts, it is available to watch
on Peacock right now. But Rose is going to spoil
the entire freaking movie for you guys in our
favorite segment that we like to call... Reading
with Rose. All right. So without further ado,
let's do that. And I'm going to mute just in
case this shit gets crazier. Okay, sounds good.
All right. Marvin Gable. Gosh, I'm off to a great
start. Marvin Gable is a successful real estate
agent who has recently been awarded the highest
honor by his boss, friend and mentor, Cliff Cusick.
He is often accompanied by a cynically depressed
assistant, Ashley, who constantly threatens leaving
her job despite Marvin's pep talks. In actuality,
Marvin is a former assassin for the company run
by his estranged brother, Alvin, a .k .a. Knuckles.
He was to eliminate a young lawyer, Rose, after
she stole from the company, but due to his love
for her, he told her to run instead before choosing
to leave his old life behind. In the present,
around Valentine's Day, Marvin receives a letter
from Rose. He is later confronted by knife assassin
and poetry -obsessed Raven, who has been hired
to find the whereabouts of Rose. Marvin knocks
Raven out and leaves him in his office. He heads
back home to collect his things before two more
agents, King and Otis, confront him. Marvin manages
to defeat the two before he is captured by Rose,
who takes him back to her hideout at a strip
club. Meanwhile, Ashley discovers Raven as well
as his poetry and falls in love with him, where
he in turn admires her appreciation for his work.
Cliff goes to Marvin's house where he is confronted
by Knuckles, who tells him of Marvin's former
life. Despite this, Cliff respects Marvin's efforts
to change, and Knuckles kills him when he declares
that they are brothers. Rose tells Marvin she
collected an insurmountable degree of information
of Knuckles' frequent money laundering, revealing
that he has been cheating several partners and
has even captured his accountant, Kippy Betts.
She had also been coercing Knuckles' right -hand
man, Renny Merlo, who was going to double -cross
her for fear of Knuckles finding out that he
had stolen from him. Rose plans to use Kippy's
information to finally take down Knuckles and
wants Marvin to return to his old ways to help
her out. Having hid in one of the houses Marvin
is selling, a couple that Marvin previously spoke
to arrive, forcing him to finalize his work with
them. He contacts Ashley and asks that she bring
the papers, unaware that Raven is with her. Kippy
manages to escape and contacts Rennie, who in
turn orders King and Otis to come as well. As
Rose leaves to confront Knuckles, Raven, Ashley,
Otis, and King arrive and a fight breaks out,
resulting in the death of Marvin's overzealous
rival, Jeff Zaks. Marvin and Raven team up and
take out Otis and King, but Ashley insists that
Marvin and Raven seize their fight as she is
in love with the latter. Inspired by this, Marvin
pursues Rose to Knuckles' hideout and they fight
through his men with Merlo getting killed. After
realizing his brother murdered Cliff, Marvin
has one final fight with Knuckles, ending with
him victorious. Rose reveals that she contacted
the Russian gangsters that Knuckles had cheated,
resulting in them coming and taking him away.
Marvin finally declares his love for Rose, proudly
embracing his past and future. I think it's starting
to dissipate a little bit. Okay. Now it just,
it just sounds like white noise now. Yeah. Yeah.
I looked up the weather radar. Oh yeah. Check.
And yeah, it said that it was going to be like
gone, gone by like nine 45. My time. Okay. All
right. So it should be gone here in about 10
minutes or so. Okay. Sweet. Good. Anyway, I,
gotta say this movie was it was simple but really
well executed i i personally enjoyed this movie
a lot i personally just thought this movie was
okay i i had a good time um but i honestly was
expecting a little more that's totally fair like
god i'm i'm just gonna come right out with with
my score i'm not i don't think i'm as high as
you may think that i am when it comes to like
the story okay like i think i'm sitting at like
a 77 with a story yeah i thought you'd be in
the 80s man no no no no like i i enjoyed it but
i i know that the the story itself was very simplistic
okay it was very just like almost like pulling
the guy out of retirement kind of deal. Yeah.
And he's just like, I still got some, like some
fight in me or, or whatever. And then he realizes
that he doesn't have to like completely turn
against what he was in the past, but he can,
he can still have that and be like, have a future.
And this, I feel that this story wouldn't be
as like, as enjoyable. Cause like I said, like,
didn't love it as much as Caleb. Okay. You know,
I'll, I'll just say mine as well. A story. It's
getting a 71 from me. I had a feeling it was
going to be down there. Now see, and you know,
like this just goes with the acting. I don't
think this story would be even like enjoyable
personally for me. If it weren't for, I'm going
to butcher his name. Like, I don't know why Kihoi
Kwan. Yeah. Or is it K -Hoy? I think it's K -Hoy.
It's K -Hoy. K -Hoy. Okay. Sorry. If it weren't
for K -Hoy Kwan, because like the, what he has
to do with this story, like him being like, you
know, a like very like overzealous real estate
agent that like, will literally make someone's
like frown turn upside down. Like literally does
not believe in bad days. Just like all the, like,
I love his energy in this movie. when he's a
real estate agent and then fricking seeing how
he was in his past life. So like how this story
focused on these two very different personalities,
if it weren't for Mr. Mr. Kwan, I don't think
that this story could have even worked personally.
Like he fricking killed it in this role. I, I,
I will absolutely say that like. This movie wouldn't
have been even enjoyable, in my opinion, if it
were for Kehoe Kwan. Yeah, I would definitely
agree with that. He is what made this movie.
I thought all of the characters kind of made
this movie. They were all fun. They had their
own personalities, their own little stories that
I actually ended up caring about a lot. I thought
it was great. I thought it was so much fun. But
yeah, Kehoe Kwan is definitely the one that made
the movie. And honestly, no, I don't think it
would. You're right. It wouldn't have worked
with anyone else. The only part I thought about
this, like it wouldn't have worked with anyone
other than young Jackie Chan. yeah that's that's
fair yeah because like his early films he very
much had this type of personality that was just
infectious yeah i i just want to know why they
had to kill sean astin's character why did they
have dude they kill him in everything what did
sean astin do to somebody because sean astin
like i feel is genuinely one of the nicest celebrities
that you could ever meet like genuinely i i would
love to meet this guy because he just has such
a genuine heart he's so down to earth love him
but the fact that freaking who did he play in
this movie uh shit cliff um like you know you
get like such a sweet story with um marvin and
cliff like how um Marvin came to Cliff when he
really had nothing. Cliff took a chance on him.
He mentored him, got him to where he is now in
this story and how he gets the Realtor of the
Year award. Their relationship is so sweet. They're
truly brothers. And then when his real brother,
Alvin... Knuckles finds out that, oh, he's calling
him. He's calling this guy a brother now. Oh,
he only has one brother and freaking just stabs
him in the goddamn eye when they're having like
when freaking Cliff is like being very civil
when they have this conversation at Marvin's
house after Marvin's already left. But Cliff
comes back to get his car that Marvin borrowed
earlier in the movie. um like cliff is like so
not he's like so calm he pays respect like just
such a genuinely good person and then freaking
like bam right into the freaking eye like well
i think that was also to highlight how just unhinged
knuckles is i know but like still like i hated
that part i remember like here's another quick
little problem for someone that that's nicknamed
knuckles you sure you'd like to use that boba
straw yeah like come on i almost would have preferred
them call him boba uh that would be funny yeah
but like it was that conversation though was
intense because you knew that he was like he
Or was it Cliff? Yeah. Yeah. Cliff knew that
he wasn't getting out of that frickin house the
second he sat down. Yeah. Like he even says it.
He's just like, I don't know if there's anything
that I can say that's going to change my fate
as he's like turning around to the frickin homeboy
behind him. Yeah. I'm like, oh, like this dude
knows that he's going to get bushwhacked. And
yeah, I wasn't expecting the frickin Boba Straw,
but. did i remember when that happened i was
like what the fuck yeah mouth was just wide open
like yeah it was it was crazy dude but i think
that was just to reflect the craziness of knuckles
yeah still don't like it yeah but i thought the
story was like was fun uh like like we already
discussed it was very simplistic um but the reason
that i went because i think outside of of uh
marv's story i think like if his alone would
have been at like a 75 maybe even like lower
in like the 73 range i probably i would have
been closer to you if it was just his story the
reason that i bumped it up to like to the 77
range is because of all the additional characters
like king and otis i love those two i thought
that they were such great little henchmen the
yeah that okay i i will admit yeah those two
got a good laugh out of me especially when uh
king is trying to get otis to like actually know
what to say to um his uh girlfriend that left
him um like that that was good um uh the raven
like the way that him and um oh my god what's
his assistant's name i forget but i know who
you're talking about yeah the amber or something
like that yeah so the way that like you know
she comes into his office like after everything
that has taken place and she thinks that he's
dead But like she starts just reading his poetry
out loud and all of a sudden he like wakes up
and she's like, oh, my God. He's like, no one
has ever understood me like that. It's honestly
a genuinely sweet moment. The connection that
they have throughout the rest of the movie and
how they fall in love, it's actually genuinely
sweet. It really is. When she was left behind
and she went into the room and picked up his
book, I'm like, oh my god, is she going to fall
in love with the assassin? When she did, I was
totally for it. I love this. it was so absurd
but in the best way yeah no absolutely i do and
like you know this goes for um you know actually
no i'll save that for acting okay um i'm trying
to think of any other like story beats like i
i eventually i will say like near near the end
i started caring less about marvin's story And
I started caring a lot more about Amber and the
Raven and King and Otis. That's fair. I loved
the way that they teased how he had this rivalry
with the other real estate agent, Zax. And it
was just like a super friendly, heartfelt rivalry.
Yeah, like freaking when it's like the final
fight, Zax comes because he's showcasing the
house next door. and he comes into the house,
and he's just like, oh, I saw all the cars parked
outside. I thought you would need some help.
Genuinely sweet moment. He's ready to help Marvin,
and then he gets shot point blank in the head.
Dude, it was great. They did that perfectly because
they foreshadowed him a little bit where he's
kicking prices. It's, it's well known that he's
a black belt and everything. And then like, they
talk about it quite like a few times throughout
the movie about him being a black belt. And then
they just fricking, they bring him in and I'm
like, Oh my God, is he going to, he's going to
like, I thought the whole black belt thing was
bullshit, but he, he walks in and he starts fricking
kicking some ass a little bit. And I'm like,
okay cool like like a guy that's like legitimately
like a black belt sick and so like yeah they
fight they kind of have like a little bit moment
where it's like yeah it's more of a friendly
rivalry than like a true like oh i hate that
guy rivalry he just makes like a stupid tactical
error be like i go high you go low let's go and
he stands up boom Like that was perfect, dude.
Yeah. I, I laughed so hard and it was perfect.
It was absolutely perfect. And then fricking
Marvin just like jumps up and runs. They're just
like, Oh shit. Oh man. But I, I love that stuff.
Like all of that, I'm putting into like how they
wrote the scenes out. i think the writing in
here was fantastic like i'm i'm putting the writing
at a pretty like an 83. like i'm not quite in
like the the it wasn't like the best in the world
but it was it was super funny and i thought a
lot of the jokes were really well written And
the reason it's still relatively low, it's probably
because of Marvin's character. Like I said, I
started to not care about him and Rose so much.
Yeah, I'm going to be honest. I really didn't
care at all about Rose for the whole movie. And
I think it's, you know, I'm just going to say
this right now. I did not sense chemistry between.
Not that kind. yeah no not at all so like freaking
when he confesses his love to her at the end
and you know like her throughout the movie being
like oh i i know the real you like come on like
we we went through so much together like all
this stuff i was like i don't buy this like i'm
sorry i i i don't see this you know what i would
have bought more than what they gave us is more
like uh a mentor mentee relationship where, see
where he does like have this genuine love for
her, but it's just not romantic in any way. Yeah.
Like say like, you know, like years down the
line, like after the Hawkeye series, Clinton,
Kate, they went their separate ways, but then
they like came back. It becomes, I wouldn't want
something like that. Yeah. Like how, you know,
Clint sees Kate as a daughter. totally see marvin
seeing roses something like either as a daughter
or just like a really close friend stuff like
that it did need to be romantic yeah and you
could have made like added a little bit of depth
with that too where it is that she's getting
framed and he maybe knew that but just couldn't
prove it And so that's why he, he volunteered
to do it because his brother views him as a monster,
just like with no attachments or whatever. And
then he's like, yeah, so take her out. Doesn't
kill her. And then like, it just kind of sends
her on her way. And like, you could have had
that whole deal. It's just turns into like a
mentor mentee deal. Yeah. And I would have preferred
that like worlds above this, like a very forced.
romantic relationship yeah so yeah no i i agree
that the the writing is definitely better than
the story but i can't be in the 80s with it um
but i'm in the high 70s so i'm gonna go with
77 totally fair yeah i think that they could
have if they would have rewritten that and i
think personally I think what you could have
done to kind of keep with the theme and everything,
because I know that they were going for, like,
Valentine's Day vibes. Like, I think it could
have just been, like, maybe her name was Love.
And so kind of, like, give the movie title a
double meaning. Like, Love Hurts. Oh, yeah, I
like that. Damn, yeah. Maybe you should have
wrote this movie. Yeah, I think. I think it was
like the. It was it was a big portion of it was
that I think that's why I stopped caring because
it wasn't believable. Fair. But like King and
Otis, like even though you never see his wife
or whatever, like you, I was totally invested
with that because he's like because you see him
trying to put forth that effort. Yeah, I know.
I especially love when like the fighting is all
over and him and Otis and King are just like
laying on the floor and he gets to shreds. Yeah.
He gets a text and his girlfriend, his ex -girlfriend
is just like, oh, my God, I love this. Yeah.
Let's talk. Let's let's work this out. And freaking
he shows it to King. He's just like, my man,
I told you, my guy loves that. king easily my
favorite character of this whole movie dude that's
fair and i don't think the um marshawn i think
that's his name yeah marshawn lynch yeah like
crazy freaking he's he's just a football player
like i don't know how many acting gigs he's had
but like that's a great question guy did a great
job if this was his first um yeah really solid
job uh doesn't look like it's his first role.
Okay. Alright, let's see. Okay, so he did his
first acting role. He played a goon. And 2013.
Then he's just he's done like. Sorry, something
hit something. Then it looks like he did or he's
majority played himself. Interesting. There's
a family first, the Marshawn Lynch story. Then
he played himself in the league for two episodes.
Oh, he did a voice in Black Ops 3, the video
game. Oh, cool. Nice. As a henchman. Then he
played himself again in Brooklyn Nine -Nine.
Music video, music video, a short. Predator Hunting
Grounds. He did a voice for in that game. uh
west world he did three episodes a super bowl
commercial a short murderville oh that's the
one where it's um uh will arnett oh okay so he
he played himself in that uh he did a a christmas
special 80 for Brady. He played himself. So he's
played most of this. He's played himself. It
looks like this is the like outside of like shorts
and video games and like Westworld. He played
a character named Giggles. So it looks like.
Yeah, but he's been in. Let's see. Bottoms. He
was Mr. G. Freaky Tales. Played a bus driver.
then he played himself so this is this looks
like well let's see it looks like this is like
a first kind of a like main role for him okay
hell yeah good for him he did a really good job
he did a great job Like, I freaking, like, I
loved his character, dude. Which, surprise, surprise,
brings us into acting, since we gave both of
our scores for writing. So going through this
cast list real quick, starting off with the man
himself, Kehoe Kwan, who plays Marvin Gable.
Then we got Ariana DeBose, who plays Rose Carlisle.
We got Daniel Wu, who plays Alvin Knuckles Gable.
You know what I almost said? You know what I
almost said? You remember the Misadventures of
Flapjack? No, I never watched that. Oh, you didn't?
No. Well, one of the characters in that, his
name is Knuckles. Oh, really? I almost said that.
I almost said Alvin Knuckles Gable. But yeah,
Alvin Gable, a .k .a. Knuckles. Mustafa Shakir,
who plays the Raven. This character was perfect
for him. He's got that old -timey villain vibe.
He does. Freaking amazing. uh let's say we got
andre erickson who plays otis marshawn lynch
who plays king cam gig and debt who plays renny
merlot what do i know him from yeah i thought
the same thing i couldn't put two and two together
though oh he was in violent night Oh, shit. Yeah,
he was. Yeah. Let's see. Then we got Leo Tipton,
who plays Ashley. What did we say her name was?
I think Amber. Yeah. I don't know where the hell
we got Amber from. We got the A, right? Yeah,
true. And then Sean Astin played Cliff Cusick.
Oh, and then Reese Darby played Kippy Betts.
Also another great character. All right. What's
your top three looking like? Number one. Absolutely.
Kehoe Kwan or Kehoe Kwan. So just like Sean Astin,
like seriously, Kehoe Kwan just seems like such
a genuinely nice guy down to earth would be.
a honor to meet him in person, just like Sean
Astin, but he's, he's a phenomenal actor. I'm
glad that he's making his comeback and I can't
wait to see what else he does because he is incredible
in this role. He makes this movie watchable in
my opinion, like nothing against the other actors
in this, but if it weren't for him in this role,
I don't think this movie would even work personally.
Agreed. He is just fantastic in this role. truly
truly great yeah he's my my number one as well
for all the reasons that you you just said like
he is so fun and just so lovable he is yeah um
number two like honestly i'm basing these off
like the characters that like i just like really
vibed with like i just really enjoyed their acting
I probably give number two. You know what? I
don't think you're going to like me for this.
I'm going to give two to Sean Astin, honestly.
I know he's in such a small role. Yeah. He's
in such a small role in this movie. But what
he makes up for it is how incredible his acting
is in that one scene that he has with. oh my
god marvin's brother alvin um that to me is knuckles
thank you um to me that is the best acting in
this in this movie that scene is just amazing
like his sean aston like really showcases his
acting chops and that like yeah just that scene
is just great and it just sucks that he dies
at the end i get it like why it had to happen
but like still it sucks um But yeah, just I think
because like for the moment he like was on screen,
I'm just like, yeah, you remind me why I love
Sean Astin. Like his acting is fantastic. And
what he was given, what little he was given here,
I loved. So, yeah, I'm giving number two to Sean
Astin. Number three. Yeah, I don't think that
they needed to kill him. I agree. I absolutely
agree. Agree. But. uh yeah i think personally
what i would have done was just show that he
wasn't dead and just like was wearing like an
eye patch at the end because like all he did
was get stabbed in the eye and then they left
that's yeah man yeah i would have liked that
a lot better uh number three i would give to
is it leo that played um ashley is that her name
yep Yeah. Leo. Okay. You know what? I'm sorry.
I'm going to change this. I'm going to put Sean
Aston number three. I'm going to put her number
two because I just loved her energy throughout
this. Like how she had such a, like, I want to
quit this job so bad, but Marvin won't let me,
like, I wish that he would understand my pain.
Like, just like, I just don't give a shit anymore.
Like if, if I were to die tomorrow, I would.
it would be number one on my list. Um, but then
when she is introduced to the Raven, his words
speak to her. She finally finds someone that
actually understands her and just, it re it leads
to a, a, um, a really nice relationship. I, I,
it looks like it's going to be a very nice relationship.
Um, just, yeah, I, I, I loved her. Um, I loved
her attitude. I loved her. like i said i don't
give a about this attitude um yeah so yeah so
she's number two and then sean aston is number
three dude you know what i loved about her was
how she was able to sell like when she was talking
to marvin and being like i quit and he's just
like like cool cool cool uh can you not quit
for like a minute and help me and bring me some
of this paperwork and she's like uh fine whatever
yeah and then uh but i loved how she did that
and how she like got involved dude i was so worried
for her in the fight that uh at the house i was
like dude i'm like oh my because like she kept
getting like real close calls and i'm like oh
my god are they going to kill ashley yeah i was
so i know i would have been devastated same here
but yeah so she i'm actually putting as my number
three okay uh my number two though is going to
marshawn lynch who played the king or played
king I thought he was so much fricking fun, dude.
I loved his, like when, when, when Marv pinned
his ass to the deck and started hopping over
the fences and he's like this little spider monkey
looking ass. Oh, I freaking love it. When, um,
what was it? Marvin puts, um, the, uh, reward
in the fridge. And then all of a sudden King's
just like, no, get your ass in the fridge. Dude,
that scene was like that whole fight. easily
my favorite sequence that that's fair that was
that was fantastic like i loved when they freaking
stuffed his ass in the in the fridge and i was
like oh shit like they got him now and then they
just picked the whole damn thing up and tossed
it i'm like this is peak cinema like i was just
like oh shit because like it looked like legitimately
like like kwan was in that damn fridge dude like
the way that they taught like i thought that
they were gonna cut and it was gonna be like
he rolls out like no he they freaking tossed
that yeah and then he rolls out and then they
cut and i'm like good lord i'm curious like i
don't know it's like so far -fetched if um they
thought oh hey indiana jones got that treatment
in the indy 4 let's give it to the original short
round in this one If that was the thought process
behind it, I would love that. Yeah. I don't know
why I said original short round. He's the only
short round. Yeah, I know. Dude, that fight was
freaking epic. Yeah, that was... I love the little
beats that... Yeah. I love the little beats that
happened when Otis shot the crock pot. and then
went and like tasted what was in it and he's
like oh man they would continue to win like went
and fought marf more i'm like exactly how i'd
react dude like that was just that was pure gold
like i freaking love that and then everything
like afterward with uh with king and otis was
great like i love when he's fighting uh the raven
and he's throwing the feather darts he's like
getting irritated with he's like are those feathers
like what the hell and then he gets like freaking
pierced with one he's like ah shit like i love
that shit dude i thought that was so funny and
uh i'll bring it up with costumes but just real
quick the way that hit that the raven like act
like pulled up his boots and like put on the
big hooks that was so cool yeah that was so badass
yeah like oh my god like they they wasted this
suit like in this movie like this would have
made an epic like bad guy in a superhero film
dude freaking i um when they were showing case
and now i'm just like i wish that they would
have done something like that for um um uh bill
skarsgård's character in the crow like if he
could have been able to do that that would have
been freaking awesome oh that would have been
so cool yeah uh gosh such a great cast was a
pretty solid cast i'm i'm probably gonna be just
a hair below where i was at with writing i'm
gonna be at 82 that's exactly what i was thinking
yeah yeah there we go yeah i i love this cast
like i thought they were so fun and enjoyable
to watch like perfect agreed all right next up
we got character development there was a decent
amount from everyone yes there definitely was
this is personally where i feel the movie thrived
i can i can agree with that um because i mean
you know speaking of marvin um it was very interesting
seeing him go from what we first are introduced
to him as the, as Marvin, the realtor discovering
what his past life was like him trying to run
from it. And then finally at the end, he just
embraces that, like kind of got the best of both
worlds here. So like overall, despite that, like
I didn't buy the romantic relationship between
him and Rose. putting that aside the character
development we get for marvin throughout like
actually like pretty pretty good oh yeah like
really good arc there same deal with um with
king or with otis yeah like it's an unexpected
character development but like it works and like
honestly you're you're happy for him you are
that was what was freaking hilarious about it
like you all of these characters that you're
just like oh shit they're going after the the
main guy like the guy we're supposed to be rooting
for and just like yeah like you're super hyped
that he was able to like get the girl yeah same
thing with ashley like how she starts out like
so like depressed like just done with everything
and then at the end she finds true love it's
it's great i loved that yeah it was so good i
i'm not listen i'm not gonna like sit here and
and say that this was like the best character
arc in like the world or anything it was good
like they gave us a starting point for these
characters and we had an obvious end point for
them too so here i'm probably gonna be at like
an 86 damn man i was thinking the same thing
geez all right next up effects There wasn't too
much use of CGI. The only thing I could think
of was like the knife throwing. Yeah. And even
like, I feel that looked pretty good. It looked
amazing. Yeah. But the choreography, like, wow.
Excellent job to the fight choreographers in
this movie. Oh yeah. This was, this made me feel
like this was like an early Jackie Chan film,
dude. like yeah dude straight yeah like straight
up like the use of the environment like the way
that he was like using just random objects around
the house like how he took that freaking amethyst
and just freaking chucked it otis's head uh yeah
i just loved what he was he would do whatever
he had to to protect his ward that was just fantastic
yeah i thought that was so good um gosh yeah
all all the fights dude were Epic. I'm not even
thinking to the fight with all the goons in whatever
the place was. Was that a video store? I don't
know what the hell it was. Those looked like
DVD racks that they were knocking down. It did.
But it was weird. You know what it reminded me
of? It reminded me of a set that you would have
seen in Victorious or iCarly. where it's kind
of a smoothie place yeah because it looked like
it was like a boba stand so it's like so it looks
like it had that smoothie place but it had movies
but it also had video games and just like like
an arcade it was just it was an odd mixture of
everything it was like it gave me like real i
carly vibes the lighting was cool as hell though
oh yeah super cool but yeah the fight with those
goons was was awesome um i'm trying to think
of like specific instances oh like the the big
guy with the shotgun that came out oh yeah he
got blasted across the store that was oh that
was okay that was awesome yeah like there was
definitely like a cheese factor to like some
of the fights because it they like when someone
would get kicked they'd get kicked across the
room or when they got thrown they'd get like
thrown way further than like physically possible
like it was borderline superhuman and i think
that made me enjoy it just a bit more fair enough
and i love that it wasn't like over cgi it like
all the like the the shit that they were doing
it felt like classic like doing it on wires yeah
no that's fair and i freaking loved that aspect
to it and then yeah like just the the you utilizing
the environment around you was great like like
i said very early jackie chan like even like
current jackie chan like he still does that that
but it the fight sequences felt like rush hour
yeah they did and i love that i like i love the
the final fight with knuckles and how he's like
swinging the bat and he just freaking like breaks
that bat in half like blocking it i'm like this
is sick dude whenever knuckles would put that
hat on i want to be like take that damn thing
off yeah freaking disrespectful yeah this is
what like where or why i think that it would
have been nice had they not killed cliff and
just made it like giving them an eye patch or
some shit yeah i agree but justice for cliff
yeah no joke i like this was perfectly over the
top and i i loved every second of it like i i
love how like when the um just the random shit
that would happen when he would um or like when
that house that he was selling got shot up and
he like i got a guy that could like take all
this out you wouldn't even notice it's there
like i i personally am really high with this
i'm sitting at 93 wow okay i was so impressed
with the choreography here like it was next level
dude i i'm personally not in the 90s but i am
still pretty high i'm at an 89 close enough all
right next up we got music i thought this wasn't
that bad It wasn't bad. It wasn't bad. What was
the song that was playing during the final fight?
That's a great question. I didn't recognize it.
I recognized it a little bit. I'm super missed
opportunity. There's a song. called love hurts
and they didn't even try and play it that yeah
that's true like i was like that's so lame like
why the hell wouldn't you play the like the song
that has like this perfectly ties into what your
movie's about true like i'll say that like the
the soundtrack was good oh it was it was a you're
the first the last my everything that was the
song yeah i don't know i wasn't super impressed
with it like with the soundtrack overall i i'm
i'm sitting at a seven because i mean the music
was good seven feels i'm going six dude i'm going
seven like i like that that song during the final
fight i'm just like okay you know what i'm kind
of vibing with this i like this so that that
boosts me up to a seven yeah i think this was
a missed opportunity missed opportunity to get
a little bit crazy with the soundtrack fair enough
like this is one that would have thrived with
a with a kick -ass soundtrack true very true
all right moving on over to costumes nothing
too special here no i i loved the sweater that
rose puts him in after she saves his ass yeah
that was very cute like i think i'm like i'm
probably sitting at like a seven and that is
solely for yeah that sweater and the raven like
i thought his his oh yeah the raven looked badass
so cool everyone else it was just like they had
outfits that kind of fit with the character and
whatnot um i'll get talking about reese darby's
character um kip And how his teeth were knocked
out. Hilarious. Yeah, that was great. You could
you you could totally tell that he was wearing
a frickin like prosthetic or something, though,
because his lip was hanging like super like it
looked like he was like his lips were swollen
that. Yeah, that's true. But oh, well. But I
liked how he's just like how he immediately goes
and calls. what's his face Merlo. And he's just
like, I'm getting the hell out of Dodge. Oh yeah.
That was, that was good. Yeah. But I, yeah. Seven
is, is where I'm at. Like I, I couldn't just,
if I go in any higher, I, yeah, I agree. Seven
as well. Yeah. All right. Last up, we got personal
score. I think we're going to be very different
on this. So I want to hear yours first. Okay.
All right. Um, so overall, like I thought that,
this movie was just okay um it had some good
parts don't get me wrong but like at the end
of the day like i don't see myself going back
to watch this um i had a decent enough time with
it um but just i had like a good amount of problems
with it um that some that they uh kind of took
me out of it a couple of times um so i think
personal i think my personal score Sorry, I'm
like in between two numbers. I think I'll be
at a 70. The anticipation is killing you, isn't
it? A little bit. Shit. I'm sorry. You know,
it deserves. God damn it. 74. Good Lord, dude.
I'm sorry. I don't think you've ever struggled
with one like that. 74. That is my personal score.
Okay. I think you hit submit before you. I did.
Shit. All right. Okay. My bad. Yeah. Yeah. I,
I'm a lot higher. I'm personally sitting at like
an 88. This is one. Okay. Yeah, I know. I'm definitely
going to be like re rewatching this one. Like
this might be like a new Valentine's day movie
for me. Like if I'm being like completely real,
like I, I fricking loved it, dude. I thought
it was so fun. It was cheesy. It had that little
romantic aspect to it. It was super enjoyable.
So, yeah, this is one I'm going to keep on my
rotation, especially during the romantic holiday
season. All right. So, yeah, like I said, I'm
going to be at an 88. All right, going through
these scores real quick. Starting off with story,
we ended up sitting at a 74. So not a super great
start. But writing got a pretty decent bump.
It's sitting at an 80. Acting got a little bit
higher, sitting at an 82. Character development
is sitting at an 86. The effects are our highest
category, sitting at a 91. music is sitting at
a six out of 10 costumes are sitting at a seven
out of 10. And then our personal score ended
up averaging out to an 81. So the final all bros
letter grade for love hurts has come out to a
B minus. Okay. Yeah, I'll take that. I will take
that all day long. Yeah. Let's see. Let's see
where it's sitting. uh it's on the lower end
of b minus so our our cutoff for a b minus is
80 this is sitting at an 81 .12 so which puts
it on the exact same level as peter pan and wendy
oh okay yeah that's interesting yeah okay personally
i think this movie is better than that one i
do too um but let's see So you want to hear what
it's below first or what it's above? I want to
hear what it's above first. Okay. So Love Hurts
is sitting above the Banana Splits movie. Okay.
It's above Dune. All right. It's above Top Gun.
Oh, damn. Yeah. Okay. Not Maverick. Just the
first Top Gun. Okay. It is above. Super Mario
Bros. 1993. Okay. And it's above Dear Evan Hansen.
Okay. Then going what it's below, it's sitting
below The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, The
Witch, and The Wardrobe. Fair. It is below Despicable
Me 4. Okay. It's below Migration. Okay. Fair.
It's below The Matrix Reloaded. Okay. It's below
Birds of Prey. Yeah, that's fair. And it is below
the bad guys. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I can agree
with that. I do have one question. Where did,
is it higher or lower than Minecraft? Than Minecraft?
Yeah. It is. Yes. It's above Minecraft. Okay.
Yes. By like a decent amount. Let's go. Well.
decent's a strong word let's see it is so minecraft
is 79 .31 and love hurts is at 81 so that's a
two percent difference okay so i mean it's not
it's not horribly above it like like we've said
that the the the margins here are really freaking
tight yeah like it's literally just the difference
between a b minus and a c plus like if if if
this movie if minecraft was one percent higher
it would have been a b minus and if love hurts
was one percent it's i mean yeah if it was still
it was one percent it'd still be a b minus but
like barely okay because what is it um dear evan
hansen is like right at a perfect 80 percent
gotcha so yeah that's where it's sitting Hell
