Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey
With rave critical and commercial success as well as early awards buzz. Christopher’s Nolans The Odyssey is a 3 hour epic that further proves Nolan is Hollywood’s last filmmaker who is able to drive people to the theater with his name alone. The bookshop has been updated with Lizzy Goodman's Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001–2011. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan. The Odyssey stars Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Samantha Morton, John Leguizamo, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Himesh Patel, Bill Irwin, Elliot Page, Benny Safdie, Mia Goth, and Travis Scott. Directed by Christopher Nolan

Olivia Wilde's The Invite
The Invite is a tastefully done comedy film that examines the importance of communication in relationships through a sexual lens. A hilarious film that should be seen with a packed audience (even if A24 doesn’t want it to be seen in a packed crowd). Book Recommendation: Michael Bamberger - The Man Who Heard Voices Or, How M. Night Shyamalan Risked His Career on a Fairy Tale https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's The interview
Despite a forgettable middle chunk, The Interview is a hilariously dumb schlocky film that should have never received the vitriol it first got when it was released. It serves as a cautionary tale as to what studios should not do when it comes to promoting a film.

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day
Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day is a fun sci-fi action adventure film that delves into the complexities of meeting extra terrestrial life, even if parts of the film were better executed in his previous work. The bookshop has been updated. check it out. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan.

Kane Parsons' Backrooms
In an impressive directorial debut, Kane Parsons is able to deliver a memorable dread inducing sci-fi horror film. Even if certain parts of it didn’t particularly land well. The bookshop has been updated. Go check out my pick. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan

Boots Riley's I Love Boosters
Despite some blemishes, I Love Boosters is a hilarious adventure comedy film that proves Boots Riley is still a unique voice in an increasingly sterile American movie system. It deserves to be seen on the big screen in a packed theater. The bookshop has been updated with Madeline Cash's Lost Lambs. One of the best novels I've read all year.

Q2 Anne Hathaway Movies
I discuss David Frankel's Devil Wears Prada 2 and David Lowery's Mother Mary. One is a fine film that banks on the references of its predecessor. The other is one of the most bold, ambitious films of the year. Go listen! https://www.instagran.com/ajaythakkar_. https://www.letterboxd.com/shyamaween. The bookshop will be updated next week. Haven't been able to read recently lol

Lee Cronin's The Mummy
Lee Cronin's The Mummy borrows from several of its influences without any regard for its characters, plot, or story. Making it one of the worst films of the year. The bookshop has been updated with Shusaku Endo's The Sea and Poison. https://www.bookshop.org/shop/ajayandnathan
