Step into a world where vengeance fuels the heart, and heroism is not just a choice, but a destiny etched in blood. This Surprise Saturday, we strip away the frills, skipping our usual intro music, to bring you straight into the gritty streets and intense drama of 'Monkey Man'. Directed by and starring the immensely talented Dev Patel, this film turns the action genre on its head, much like our protagonist vaults through his enemies. Sharlto Copley, Pitobash, and Vipin Sharma round out a stellar cast that brings depth and ferocity to this tale of a young man's relentless quest for retribution after the heart-wrenching murder of his mother.

Feel the punches and wince at the blows in this no-holds-barred discussion that pits 'Monkey Man' against action giants like 'John Wick'. We marvel at Patel's directorial prowess in crafting fight scenes that are as authentic as they are jaw-dropping. And it's not just about brawn; the struggle of Patel's character to hone his fighting skills from scratch adds a layer of realism to the revenge narrative. Acting chops abound in this cinematic gem, proving that a film can be both adrenaline-inducing and emotionally resonant. Join us for a podcast episode that, much like the movie it celebrates, is compelling, well-executed, and relentlessly engaging.
