I almost never do this but I had to turn this off with 10 minutes left in the spoiler talk. I get it, Devindra didn't like The Adam Project. No need to scream about it for 15 minutes. I turned it off when I got a headache from listening to him yell over everyone. (Also, it's really not THAT bad. It's a fun and goofy action-adventure starring Ryan Reynolds as the wisecracking lead.)

2022-03-22 04:16:30 +0000 UTCI don't get bringing up 80's movies. Those are almost 40 years old. You have to do something different now and not say "Well, you liked those 80's movies when you were a kid, so why not this one?!"
