Aspect Radio #94: Gravity, Captain Phillips, Rush, Don Jon

Ben and Corey play a little catch-up since their last show, talking about four big releases folks should catch before they leave theaters.

More than any perhaps, folks should see Alfonso Cuaron’s “Gravity,” which the guys agree is a landmark film in special effects but blockbusters in general.

They also hop aboard Paul Greengrass’ “Captain Phillips,” starring Tom Hanks in arguably in best performance since he was last nominated for an Oscar in “Cast Away.”

The guys even caught Ron Howard’s Formula One racing rivalry flick “Rush” starring Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl, which both agree is entertaining but a little light on substance.

Corey hasn’t seen Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut “Don Jon” just yet, but Ben insists he and others would get a kick out of the comedy about a man trying to beat an addiction but more importantly making an effort to better himself and change his outlook on relationships.

We also hear a parting shot from show and FilmNerds.com contributor Graham Flanagan, who says “Captain Phillips” has a very important element he wished “Cast Away” did almost years ago.
