S15 Ep794: The Judge

We Hate Movies

“This movie takes its time, like an old man getting into a bathtub.” - Eric
On this week’s episode, this one’s a long time coming as Chris Cabin gets his wish and we chat about David Dobkin’s The Judge! Was a comedy director right for this project? Was this script right for this project? How great is Vincent D’Onofrio in literally anything, including this? What’s with that lame waterfall back drop at the diner? And couldn’t we have skipped that bathroom scene? PLUS: Look out for The Judge 2: The Appeal!

The Judge stars Robert Downey Jr., Robert Duvall, Vera Farmiga, Billy Bob Thornton, Vincent D’Onofrio, Jeremy Strong, Dax Shepard, Ken Howard, Emma Tremblay, Balthazar Getty, David Krumholtz, Grace Zabriskie, Denis O’Hare, and Leighton Meester as Carla; directed by David Dobkin.
