10 Cloverfield Lane • Member Bonus

We return to the Cloververse for our August 2022 member bonus episode with Dan Trachtenberg’s directorial debut, 2016’s ‘10 Cloverfield Lane.’ It’s effective as all get-out, but does it feel shoehorned to be a followup to J.J. Abrams’ ‘Cloverfield’? And how remarkable is John Goodman?

Triple 9

We call the Film Board a gang of thugs, but we’ve got nothing on the crew from Triple 9, a violent cop drama from 2016 directed by John Hilcoat. With both the Marvel and DC cinematic universes represented as well as The Walking Dead, this film has a slew of familiar faces. We have corrupt cops working one last heist for the mafia, and needing to sacrifice one of their own to do it. From early on this films delivers on action and adrenaline, but can the story and actors deliver an appropriate finish?
