Dwayne Johnson is a formidable presence in the superhero movie "Black Adam," which HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano discuss in this podcast episode. Johnson plays a figure from the ancient world brought to life again in the modern world, where his superpowers prompt a lot of computer-generated special effects. Marie enjoys this film more than Mike does, but both agree that it predictably satisfies the expectations for a superhero story. Marie and Mike also discuss "Ticket to Paradise," a silly comedy whose major selling points are George Clooney, Julia Roberts and tropical beaches. It's pleasant to watch and that's more than you can say for many movies.
