Ep800: RRR (2022) - Round Table Review
Earth's Mightiest Critics celebrate 800 episodes of the Kicking the Seat Podcast with a truly epic livestream for one of the year's biggest films!
S.S. Rajamouli's sprawling Tollywood adventure, RRR, tells the fictitious story of two legendary revolutionaries and their journey away from home before fighting for their country in the 1920s.
Hailed by many as one of 2022's very best, this 3-hour spectacle is available on Netflix--so no excuses for not having seen it!
In this live and lively extended show, the panel heaps praise on a film that cost a quarter of most American comic book movies--yet delivers on absolutely every level to four times the effect! Also, a contingent of new and very helpful chat participants join the fun, adding cultural context, unpacking visual metaphors, and planting the seeds for an upcoming Kicking the Seat series on the wonders of Indian cinema!
