Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast sorts Pixar's latest into the "donate" pile with an unconventional look at Toy Story 4! Join Ian and David Fowlie of Keeping it Reel, Emmanuel Noisette of Eman's Movie Reviews, and Don Shanahan of Every Movie Has a Lesson for a balanced take on the further adventures of Woody, Buzz, Bo Beep, and their newest plastic sidekick, Forky.
Is the movie a home run, a cash grab, or an awkward addendum to a near-perfect trilogy? Listen in for a nuanced analysis that you won't find anywhere else!
Also, Don talks about what it's like to be one of only twoRotten Tomatoes-certified critics to have given Toy Story 4 a "Rotten" rating. From the nuance of his position; to potentially criminal reader backlash; and an attempted intervention on the part of his colleagues, you'll get an inside look at the rough-and-tumble craft of film criticism!
You've got a friend in Episode 418 (for now, at least)!
