No Hard Feelings in Asteroid City's Past Lives/ Ep. 249

On Episode 249 of the Always the Critic Podcast, it’s a double feature as we review the R-rated comedy No Hard Feelings and Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City, before the non-spoiler section of our Daebak K-Rambles Past Lives review. 

Rico and Jess first talk about No Hard Feelings and how much they’ve missed Jennifer Lawrence, mentioning the rather tame nature of the movie (despite that ONE scene, you know the one), how it succeeded in being heartfelt, newcomer Andrew Barth Feldman’s comedic chops, the welcome addition of Matthew Broderick, and the post-Judd Apatow comedy landscape. Later in the show, Rico and Jess discuss Asteroid City, (XX:XX) including the stacked cast, the strength of the younger cast members, how sucky they found the movie with its incoherent plot, a revelation from Rico about Edward Norton, and Wes Anderson as part of the pop culture zeitgeist, and more.
