Dudes on Movies

157 - Cliffhanger

The Dudes decide it's a good idea to unnecessarily risk their lives climbing cliffsides without ropes or any protective equipment with 1993's Cliffhanger.  God-tier recovery ability allows our protagonists to live through some truly shocking events, such that even the most experienced trash cinephiles will find themselves taken aback.  Can you use another person as a toboggan, and steer using their face?  Then you're on the Team!

156 - American Psycho

The Dudes once again get waist-deep in 80s Excess as they tackle 2000's American Psycho.  Will society ever solve its Patrick Bateman Problem?  Not when we allow inequality to flourish, and the truly guilty go unpunished.  But as sure as our name is Dudes On Movies, the people of America can overcome their own personal Patrick Bateman, which also happens to be the actual Patrick Bateman!

154 - Promising Young Woman

***Please excuse the mild distortion 27:00-30:00***
Its time to sharpen up your bow and play some Britney Spears arranged for cello and violin as The Dudes tackle 2020's "Promising Young Woman".  Cassandra's methods might be unorthodox, but considering her cause and what she's up against, its hard to argue with the results.  Hang with us and analyze the results.
