Are the days of treating franchise reboots as an inferior species of movie no more? Josh and Adam check in on the damned dirty apes of DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, the sequel to 2011's surprisingly successful — and surprisingly good — Apes restart. Plus, Filmspotting anoints the Top 5 Actors of the Future (2014 class), and Josh's take on Melissa McCarthy's TAMMY.
This episode is presented by Squarespace (FILM) and Audible.
