The Inside Reel

All Star Competitors Kam Williams & Ace Amerson talk to The Inside Reel about approach, environment, strategy and communication in regards to the 4th season of the competition series: “The Challenge - All Stars” on Paramount+.

Actors Tye Sheridan and Kali Reis as well as Director Jean-Stephane Sauvaire talk to The Inside Reel about approach, thematics, physicality, instinct and hyper-reality in regards to their new film: “Asphalt City” from Vertical Entertainment.

Showrunners Alex Kurtzman & Michelle Paradise and Actors Sonequa Martin-Green, Doug Jones, David Ajala, Wilson Cruz and Blu del Barrio talk to The Inside Reel about perspestive vs. perception, character build and journey in regards to the 5th and final season of their show: "Star Trek: Discovery" on Paramount+.

The aspect of making history both entertaining but also prevalent in character is a balance, especially when it involves action and comedy. With "The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare", director Guy Ritchie uses his approach to again make something off-the-cuff.

The contradiction of perspective sometimes offers a different perception in certain ways. With the film "Civil War", writer/director Alex Garland again seeks to stir the pot philosphically while using real world perspectives to engage ideas of conpiracy, hurt and misdirection.

"Monkey Man" in certain ways wants to be the second coming of "John Wick" but from an Indian point of view. While what star/director Dev Patel does is admirable and his heart is fully in it, the movie doesn't truly hit its stride until the last 1/4 of the film.

Special Creature Effects Supervisor Neal Scanlan talks to The Inside Reel about humanity, old school inspiration, the balance curve and cinematic scale in regards to the digital/in-home release of "Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker.”
