I recapped three heavy talkers on last yesterday’s KVNU For the People Movie Show – one riding a hype wave, one genuinely cooking, and one that gleefully lights a match.

MARTY SUPREME
Overhyped. The craft is competent and the flourishes are there, but the movie keeps announcing its importance instead of earning it. The ideas are interesting; the execution feels like prestige cosplay, meaning handsome, self-serious, and strangely weightless when it should wallop. You can see the better film inside this one, but the final cut never quite lets it out. You can check out the trailer for MARTY SUPREME if you missed it in theaters or online.

JAY KELLY
This is the real deal. The film’s heart and humor land because the grown-up moviestar tale just pops with Baumbach’s snapping writing. Clooney and Sandler are both dialed in, playing to strengths without coasting. It’s warm, sharply observed, and deceptively sturdy: the kind of character-driven crowd-pleaser that sneaks up on you in the third act and leaves you smiling on the way out. Missed this trailer, as well? I live to serve: JAY KELLY trailer.

BUGONIA
Yorgos whatshisname (yes, that one) stays undefeated in the “kick-butt, what-did-I-just-watch” category. It’s feral, funny, and ruthlessly precise—absurdity with a scalpel. The movie weaponizes discomfort, then somehow makes it cathartic; every left turn feels inevitable in hindsight. If you like your satire spiked and your genre lines smudged, this one’s a feast.
