Kermode & Mayo’s Take

Mark Gets to Legitimately Rant About Donald Trump Because He’s Reviewing a Film About Him

Listen on

Episode notes

This week, Mark is joined by Ben Bailey Smith to give you the lowdown on the week’s cinematic releases.

Ben chats to Naomi Scott about her tour-de-force performance in ‘Smile 2’, the second outing for the smash-hit horror-thriller franchise.

It’s a big week for Mark as two of his favourite interests converge – reviewing films and Donald Trump – in ‘The Apprentice’, the Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong-starring story of how a young Donald Trump started his real-estate business in 1970s and ‘80s New York with the helping hand of his infamous lawyer Roy Cohn.

He also gives his take on ‘The Wild Robot’, a starry animated sci-fi survival film, which sees a robot shipwrecked on a deserted island and forced to adapt to its new surroundings, developing a parental bond with an orphaned gosling in the process.

Strap in for some stellar takes!
