THE GORGE MOVIE REVIEW
Are you a legendary shot behind the scope of a high powered rifle and got next to nothing else going on except sleepless lonely nights sitting next to your phone hoping for that next mission call? Then you are perfect for a top secret year-long mission out in the middle of an undisclosed location that not even Google Maps can find. The Gorge directed by Scott Derrickson and written by Zach Dean premiered on Apple TV+. Levi (Miles Teller) is a USMC elite sniper with his shelf piled high with accolades but no photos of friends or family. Drasa (Anya Taylor-Joy) is a mythical assassin who closes the curtains on the lives of those who dance on the stage of corruption and greed. She also loves to dance to her vinyl collection. Just how far is the east from the west? Levi and Drasi, both on opposite ends of the gorge, will find hell within the depths but perhaps find hope within each other. Bradly, Drew, and T.C. take aim at the now streaming phenomenon and discuss which elements of this horror action thriller are on target and which shots miss their mark. Anya Taylor-Joy is an absolute joy to watch but what of her divisive co-star? Is this the year Miles Teller leaves behind his title of most punchable face and takes up the mantle of a charming lead? Find out in the mysteries of The Gorge!
DIRECTED BY: Scott Derrickson
STARRING: Miles Teller, Anya Taylor-Joy, Sigourney Weaver, Sope Dirisu, William Houston
YOUR REVIEWERS
Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)
Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.
