Popcorn Culture - Trap + Who’s A Director You Love Or Hate?

Popcorn Culture - Trap + Who’s A Director You Love Or Hate?

M. Night Shyamalan’s back with his latest high-concept thriller: this time about a serial killer trapped at a concert with his daughter, as the walls and law enforcement close in. We discuss whether this Josh Hartnett-led vehicle works, and whether the nepo baby accusations are warranted. Then on Take Two, we discuss the directors who are either the main draw for watching something, or the reason we avoid a project. Finally, on the B-Side, in honour of father-daughter duos in movies, we’re closing it out with Aerosmith’s classic tearjerker, I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing.
