This week on the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast, we break down the newest trailer for Thunderbolts—does it live up to the hype? Plus, we discuss Anthony Mackie’s comments on raising his son to be "masculine" and what that means in today’s world.
On the movie review front, we’ve got a mix of action, intrigue, and cultish weirdness with this week’s new releases:
Black Bag

Soderbergh
Starring Daniel Fassbender, Cate Blanchett
When intelligence agent George Woodhouse’s wife is suspected of

legendary Soderbergh.
Novocaine

Olson
Starring Jack Quaid, Amber Midthunder, Ray Nicholson

Green

Lewis
A young writer visits the secluded estate of a pop star who
vanished 30 years ago. What begins as a dream assignment spirals

We revisit this indie cult favorite about a rebellious party girl

attitude.
