 Would you ever pierce your nipples no, but my dad has both of his parents really it was a surfer thing back in the day Hey, welcome back to our stupid reaction. It's up Corbin I'm Rick and he calls it instagram and put a lot of juicy content Squat back the first time I did juicy content with my left hand you that's a personal thing we don't want to hear and Paul's from our personal YouTube channel doing different stuff over there to go so go check that out today We're doing the movie review you little little little turds For a movie called a death in a gunge In the gunge no or an ugly not gunge. It's in the gunter. Yeah, two completely different films. Very completely Yes, but amazingly similar titles death in a gunge was about this guy named Reggie Who fell into the butt crack of King Kong and they didn't know what to call that They didn't have a scientific term for King Kong's butt crack. So his son Leon Said it's a gunge. So the Synopsis is a life of a shy young Indian student slowly falls into pieces during a family road trip. Yes I don't know if I like that. I think it's a little too much away. I think I would just spend like a family goes on a Dysfunctional family trip Yeah, I don't think it gives that much away. I mean it really could but anyway, it's direct. Yeah by saying it falls to pieces Yeah, yeah directed by Conkana Sinsharma, and then it was produced by a bunch of people. Well, we know this gentleman. Oh, oh, yeah the casting No, no the producer. Oh Abhishek Chabi. Oh my bad Good job. So truly and that one with that in a certain shot correct He also worked with Shaw-Bardwash at the beginning of this. They said this one's dedicated to Vishal bard wash Mm-hmm. I believe I researched it said he was the one that got this person's This is her they started her he got he helped her start her own movie company. Oh Production and is this am I about this is her first film. Am I right in that might be I Think I remember that but obviously it's starting a whole bunch of people Most notably though, I think the star of it is the current nasi who I'm glad we actually watch is now Know him from music. Yes. So that's that's wonderful but Colky Colky Renvir sorry Oh boy. Yeah, just a whole gym who I think was in punmavut, right? Yes, he's the gay guy Renvir so so many people And it's definitely I would consider it an independent film. Yes, it feels that way and that's a good thing 100% independent film. So is it gonna be a hundred foot sword review? That's just how we like to do if you haven't watched it. Yeah, if you don't like to be spoiled Go watch it come back see our review some of you like to be spoiled not a little you know little boys and girls You're about to be spoiled. Yeah, but yes Rick your initial thoughts I didn't like it as much as I was hoping I would The trailer I remember it me thinking oh my goodness This has all the feels of a really incredible independent film And it even felt like it was gonna take really dark turns to the point of almost being like horror And since it didn't go that way I guess I went in with somewhat of an expectation of that based on the trailer and a lot of the buzz because I had heard We had heard things about this being like Oscar level and I didn't find it to be Oscar level. I felt it to be enjoyable. I'm glad that I watched it Mm-hmm. I have some problems with it But so other than that my recommendation would be to people if you haven't seen a death in the guns You'll probably enjoy it, but I wouldn't go out of my way to necessarily see it. I actually really enjoyed it I thought it was I really liked it. There was something that kept me from loving it Okay, like I like most of this I like the story it was trying to like the message It was giving a cross sure I liked I liked all the actors I thought they did a really good job, and I thought you'd like the ending. Yeah. Yeah, that's a Corbin and I did really enjoy that ending But there was the one big thing. I don't know if we want to get into it right now But it was mostly the dialogue writing for me. It took me out of it sometimes And it's it's a hard thing and I think I know why because it was written by not only the director But another somebody else who wrote the additional screenplay. Mm-hmm. This is Her first writing. Mm-hmm, and it's also her first she did a short film before this and it was her first feature So I'm assuming that's why because it's sometimes you can just tell like because yes What I'm talking about when I it's it was actually not just the writing because I actually thought the story and the whole Writing of it was good. I think the bed. I think the story is the best good. Yes the dialogue Which happens in some films like I don't know if you remember Venom Which was the spider-man with Tom Hardy the writing was atrocious. It was amazing that I didn't hate that film It's because Hardy's yeah, and I think the actors in this also helped out with that in turn I agree It's just that the dialogue sometimes it didn't feel like it almost didn't feel real sometimes Right, they were just writing stuff to write stuff as opposed to making it natural correct So that's what kept me from loving it because I actually I was I I was engrossed most of the time I actually I think different from Rick probably I I Was interested in what's happening on the screen the entire time What took me out of it though sometimes was when they were talking to each other and it wasn't they're acting That's that's the thing. It's it's I don't know if some people can't pick up on that Bad writing and bad actor there is there was a bad acting. No, and I I agree with you I think I think the actors did the best they could with what they had and Yeah, it's it's I hope It's the best way to help you recognize it because for people who are Trained in it and see it all the time we we can differentiate instantly when we say it was the writing and not the acting Yes, we recognize that there's a possibility of things being lost in translation, obviously because we're getting but also a lot of it was in English exactly a lot of it was in English and there's just You just have to watch good writing a lot so for example Aaron Sorkin Mm-hmm Also in India on your kashya. Yes. He is probably one of the best dialogue writers I never seen agreed because you just need to be sound natural not like because I don't know anyway Yeah, that was here's that was a good way to describe it good writing The words sound like and this is really also a definition of good acting with both of them But especially in the writing aspect of it the words coming out of the person's mouth Let's say we're having a conversation The words sound like they're happening in the moment as a response from what you said because I just had a thought based on what you said Versus this is something I've already preconceived and I'm gonna say this because this is gonna sound right Yeah, so that that was my biggest thing with it And I know I didn't want to start it off with the negative, but we did But I don't because I actually really enjoyed this film and I would recommend this film. I would tell them Forgive the writing a little bit. That's what I would do. I actually enjoyed this film quite a bit And if somebody said to me, hey, should I watch a death in the gun? My response would be yeah, I didn't love it You might yeah So but the other parts that I did really love I I really enjoyed one obviously the story I I enjoyed the message that they were getting across and I think some people might not understand the message Because I've heard some either they people really love this film, but they didn't like it They thought it was boring and like at the end when it turns out he Please go away if you haven't watched it When he kills himself. Yeah, I Saw some reviews after I watched it and certain people were saying they'd understand where that came from Well, we didn't we didn't know anything about his backstory and I thought that was kind of the point I did too. Anybody could have issues Everybody has their own issues. Yeah in in life and You don't know and so the way like there's anything that could put them over the edge and you could see in this film And I want to applaud of the grant. I thought he did a phenomenon. I did too because He was actually you could tell crying for help. Yes, and like in the small ways and he wanted to attach himself to certain people He was like it was like a puppy. Oh the whole the whole Misunderstanding he has with Colky's character I get emotional thinking about it. Yeah, because and I that for me Like we've been saying this whole time the story itself like for for the for the writing to get stodgy and be unbelievable in some places I think the film's worth a watch in order to get the larger point that you get at the end because That is the point if you watch this film if you if you see the film twice You'll pick up a bunch you will pick up up you'll pick up on the things That unfortunately this does happen with a lot of people a lot of people who have a family member or a friend who takes their own life They become extremely introspective and it's a shot. They're like we didn't see this coming But then when they look they realize wow there was a sign there was a sign there was a sign and that's that's part of the Reason this is such a great story because it does give you all of these little markers that Signal what can happen, especially when you talk about the issue of bullying That's not just a school ground issue That's a adults deal with yeah and family and families deal with that and it can push people over the edge But nothing I want to call them on The fact that they didn't really make anybody a villain. Yes It was almost just that these are people everybody's people and they're all consumed with themself They're not consumed with yes anybody else even if it's in their family. They're I'm consumed with me right and but I want to applaud because That's how it is. It's not that there's a villain. There's not a big schoolyard bully. That's what leads it It's the little things. That's the villain. Yeah, the villain the antagonist in this is is those little things and it kept Diverting it which might might have been why people thought like it was like where did that come from because maybe thought something was going to happen The little girl But he was obviously when she's gone. Yeah, you but it's really I thought there was gonna be like a bigger thing with the help They the entire time because they kept bringing them into the fold I thought it's gonna be more of a like they kept teasing the horror aspect of it like little little teases Yeah here and there and then they ended up going with the obviously the story that we got But I liked that that they there wasn't any particular villain I just kind of more of a normal story and they said in the beginning it was based on a true story I don't know what story but it's it's more of just a there's millions of people that have dealt with this Yeah, I think Millions of people who haven't just dealt with the fact that you have someone in a closed circle like that who takes their own life, but you're also dealing with I thought the Dynamics this is gonna be a compliment to the writing In story. Yeah. Yeah, instead of just dialogue. Yeah, right a compliment to that is they created believable family problems Yeah, which were the contributing factors that weren't just this weekend No, what you saw here in the dynamics are the dynamics that have been with this family forever Yeah, and they're just being seen now at this family vacation And that's what makes them so troubling for Vikrant's character is that this is the kind of thing He's had to do it for his whole life. Yeah deal to family and then obviously what he had to get deal with at school Yeah, his other problems. He was having that don't have to do with his family. Yeah, he's a very troubled Person and one once he was I think the straw that broke the camel's back was he thought he was gonna get To be in a relationship with colky. Yeah, and that was his last ditch ever That was the last straw for him I'm gonna see you in Calcutta, right and she was like, no, no, that was just That was just having fun having fun and he was like, I I Thought you were gonna be the one person I could finally talk to yeah And so he was a very troubled soul and I really enjoyed that that it's unfortunate because I could have like loved this Me too. I was frustrated and I was there was just that one point like because I could have been like this Could have been up to my top 10 if I could have if the writing would have been on guard Kashi up style This could have been it's a very different film But did you ever see the big chill? I don't know. It's a great film from back in the 80s It may even be like 79 But I think it was the early 80s and it had a lot of name people at the time it had Kevin Klein and Glenn Close a very funny trivia thing is is that Reef Kevin Costner No, Kevin Costner actually plays the dead friend at the beginning of the movie and it centers around them losing a friend Hmm and them all getting together and the big chill is about their friends dead and they talk about all of their all of their Baggage comes up. Yeah on this weekend centered around the death of a friend I was expecting that the writing in the big chill the fact that might be Aaron Sorkin Is it it might be yeah, he's great. Yeah, it's just it's a dialogue relational driven Another thing that I'm really enjoyed about this film though was the world that they created I thought they did a phenomenal job in creating 19. It felt like it's 79. It felt like the 70s They very good job. They the cinematography and the the costuming and everything hair was a spot-on Yep, it they really created a world that was although different than a lot of Indian films We've seen although I will point out that when they were having a little sing-along around the delivering him his guitar playing We're going here But yeah, that I I felt like it was a very especially for somebody who this is their first attempt at writing and directing Yeah, it's a very solid job. I mean, this is way better than a lot of people's first Like so there's definitely more good than bad I just was thinking and still do this had this could have been this could have been great Exceptional. Yeah, I think the only thing that kept it from me because I get like I said on everybody I thought Kalki did a good job. Obviously Vick around. I thought I did a really good job I would love to see obviously on Pory who I think this is one of the first things This is one of the first yeah that we have seen him in yeah, and we know obviously he's Legend Wait, no, did we see him? He was he in with was that on Pory with miss Arden and McBoo Was that because they did that yeah When I'm trying to pull it up. No Bull was that the one with his his wife? No, McBoo was a Vishal Yeah, I know I don't remember But I'm looking up Once I got What year was that you think? Well 2000 Yes, it was it was him. It was him. It was him. Okay. Yeah, so we've seen him in McBoo He was an inspector with you know, Saradan. They were yes, they were the two they were yes I love their characters in that But yeah, I do want to see more from our friend from Padma Vat because I think he's a really talented also He looks like Sasha Barakona a little bit. He does have a little Sasha Baron Cohen in the face. Yeah, Jim on and He was in that video with the music video. We just recently reacted Jim Sar sarv Sar bar We're just Sar and then also Ranveer Shorri. Yeah, I think it's a really good we saw him in Was he that wasn't him an extraction was it? No, he an extraction. No, okay. No, we saw him in But he was in a crazy medium that we saw that's what it is. Yes, and he was also in that Yes, that's the one I was thinking of that. Yes, so yeah, so he's we've seen him a couple I think it's a really everybody in this cast it was like when you saw what was that film That just everybody I mean there's films every year that you come out and be like, oh, I guess the the one that you just watched with Aaron Sorkin Yeah, obviously everybody's in it right like a thousand people that feels like one of these which is amazing that this person first I'm right here director. I believe right got to work all this work with all these really talented. I Obviously, they're not the AA list, but you know, I don't care there I think some of the probably the best actors are not a list actors. Yeah agreed So it's it's phenomenal that they also signed on for this. Yeah So like I said, I really really enjoyed it. I could have loved it. I really really liked it I could have loved it. I probably gave it a B, but it could have been an A plus. I Would I'll give it a B. Yeah, I was leaning C plus, but I think that's being mean I think a B is a very fair grade. Yeah, and it was it was really only the writing, but let us know what film we watch and review next down below This was actually a patreon. They get to do a poll every month.
