Description
Hey Film fans! Welcome back to another episode of Not A Bomb! We continue looking back at some of the biggest bombs of 2022 and this week is a “criminally” underseen film - Emily the Criminal. The movie stars a NAB favorite, Aubrey Plaza, and marks the film debut of writer/director - John Patton Ford. The guys are happy to welcome back, for a second week in a row, John Nance. The gang doesn’t waste any time and dives deep into the social commentary layered throughout the film while highlighting the phenomenal performance by Plaza. Emily the Criminal might be the best film to discuss the struggles of the millennial generation as well as several 2022 economic topics like the “gig” economy and fraud. Don’t worry - the film is a modern film noir and thriller first and foremost! Do yourself a favor and watch this film as soon as possible!
