AAPI Heritage Month: RRR & Monkey Man | The Reel Study S5 Ep 31
🔥 This week on The Reel Study, our AAPI Heritage Month celebration continues with an action-packed double feature: RRR and Monkey Man. From a larger-than-life historical epic fueled by rebellion, brotherhood, and explosive spectacle to a gritty revenge thriller driven by rage, corruption, and survival, these films showcase bold storytelling and the global impact of South Asian voices in modern cinema.
Before the discussion, catch up on The Reel News for the latest movie headlines. Then check out Reel Roundup, where the panel reviews new films currently in theatres or on streaming platforms. This week, AllTheMovieThings shares his spoiler-free review of I Love Boosters and MrSnidbits reviews Project Hail Mary.
