Shownotes
In this bonus holiday edition of 'Wallowing in the Shallows', Rebecca and Tori dive into a review of the 2024 movie 'Red One', featuring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans. We discuss our initial impressions, character performances, and the film's entertainment value, while also exploring the thematic elements of Christmas and the lore surrounding figures like Krampus and Grýlla. We chat about the film's climactic moments, character redemption arcs, and the moral complexities presented.
PS - We were having some audio difficulties.
