Give "One Battle After Another" anything it wants | Movie Review by The Bluff Council

"One Battle After Another" is directed by maybe the most revered director of our time, starring maybe the most revered actor of our time. It's being heralded as maybe being the best film of the year... maybe the decade... maybe the century... Is it actually good? Yes, the thumbnail spoils it, it is, in fact, excellent. Then why did it "flop?"

Join Keith and Ev as they jump into all the good (a lot!) and the bad (OK maybe a little...) and everything else about Paul Thomas Anderson's modern masterpiece: "One Battle After Another."
