About this episode
Leave it to Richard Linklater, one of our greatest and most meditative filmmakers, to team up with Glen Powell, one of Hollywood’s biggest stars (who also writes!), and create one of the best movies of the summer! Based on a true story, Hit Man embodies as many genres- romcom, thriller, noir- as Powell does personalities as fake hit men: it really needs to be seen to be believed. Listen to Nick and Sophia’s spoiler-free discussion of the film, including a short introduction about their thoughts on Linklater’s Oscar-worthy filmography. Watch Hit Man on Netflix today and let us know what you think!
