The Popcorn Pundits - Week 54: The Apprentice Biopic & Dark Thriller Heretic Review
Description: Welcome to Week 54 of The Popcorn Pundits! 🍿 This week, we’re diving deep into two films that have everyone talking: The Apprentice, a biopic set in the high-stakes world of 1970s New York real estate, and Heretic, a horror thriller that turns a seemingly ordinary suburban encounter into a nightmare.
First up is The Apprentice, following the early days of Donald Trump’s career, played by Sebastian Stan, as he strives to make his mark outside his father’s influence. Alongside the notorious Roy M. Cohn, portrayed by Jeremy Strong, we explore how Cohn’s cutthroat mentorship shapes Trump’s emerging career. Does the film bring new insight, or is it a shadow of what we already know?
Then we step into the unsettling world of Heretic, where two young Mormon missionaries, portrayed by Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East, face a chilling encounter with the charming yet menacing Mr. Reed, played by Hugh Grant. What starts as a routine suburban visit spirals into a tense game of survival as the two missionaries realize they’ve stepped into a horror they couldn’t anticipate.
