In which the Mister joins me in reviewing MALCOLM AND MARIE (2021), currently streaming on Netflix. Written and directed by Sam Levinson, the film explores the relationship between a filmmaker (John David Washington as Malcolm) and his girlfriend (Zendaya as Marie) on what should have been a joyous occasion – the premiere of his film. However hurt feelings and resentments surface and make the night take an ugly turn. The film is rated R with a runtime of 1 hour and 46 minutes. Please note there are SPOILERS and mild cursing in this review, although it pales in comparison to the adult language in this film.
