This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt take their kitty cat bracelet out of storage to watch the latest adventure of the Mansell family as they try and take a vacation and end up getting into all kinds of wacky trouble in ‘Nobody 2’. Then Ari Aster returns with ‘Eddington’, the story about, well, a story that maybe serves no one, or is the hilarious satire of Covid and our deep divide we didn’t know we needed.

This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt lock and load for a double feature. First up is ‘Weapons’, the highly anticipated horror film from the writer/director of the still unavailable on physical media, ‘Barbarian’. Does it deserve all the hype?

Then they head down under with ‘Dangerous Animals’, a film that stars Jai Courtney and might actually be the better for it. I know, Matt and Chris are shocked too. So settle in for an all new, all different First Run!
