Film critics Barry Hertz and Teri Hart review the new Ryan Gosling/Emily Blunt film
Today on Commotion, film critics Barry Hertz and Teri Hart give us their takes on The Fall Guy, a hybrid action-romantic comedy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt (and the highly-anticipated follow-up to their respective summers of Barbenheimer).
The panel discusses whether it's worth seeing in theatres, whether it makes movies stars out of its lead actors, and how well it succeeds at celebrating the behind-the-scenes workers on film sets who rarely get public recognition.
