Welcome to America's least necessary film criticism podcast. Each week, a guest will join hosts Noah Frank and Will Vitka to discuss a film that is at least 10 years old, that at least one of us hasn't seen in that period of time, and that, hopefully, at least one of us hasn't seen at all. No classics, no bombs. This is about revisiting regular movies that we think we liked when we first saw them, to see how both we and the culture around the film have changed in the intervening years. In contrast to the constant, life-or-death anxiety of the last few years, to the unyielding firehose of news, this podcast aims only to answer a single question with the lowest stakes imaginable: Do you still like this movie?

Ep. 13: In-A-Gadda-Gun-Kata — “Equilibrium” (2002)

To give you a little peek behind the #ITILTM curtain, we’ve had to do some creative juggling due to some unforeseen technical issues. But that doesn’t mean we don’t have a new episode for you this week. Or, in non-double negative speak...here’s your new episode!
Friend and fellow podcaster Rory Murphy joins the fun and brings us the 2002 Christian Bale vehicle “Equilibrium,” a dystopian sci-fi affair in which feelings have been outlawed in order to create an ideal, peaceful society. You can imagine why that might not work.
So, yeah, Will sounds like he's stuck in grain silo or something, but hopefully that's not too distracting. Blame Skype. Or blame us. Whatever makes you happy.
Enjoy, and we’ll see you back here next week.
