Summer is pretty much here and so is the season of reconstructing Will Smith's reputation. That's why our first movie is "Bad Boys: Ride or Die" in wwhich Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are back with their iconic mix of edge-of-your seat action and outrageous comedy but this time with a twist: Miami's finest are now on the run. Does somebody get slapped? Why yes. Then we looked at the new Max doucmentary "Moviepass, Moviecrash" which explores the company founding and the implosion of the business by outside investors who took over the company, left it bankrupt and under investigation. There's also the second season of "Tokyo Vice" in which a Western journalist working for a publication in Tokyo takes on one of the city's most powerful crime bosses.For those of you looking for an inspirational family film we've got "Young Woman and the Sea" which is the story of competitive swimmer Trudy Ederle, who, in 1926, was the first woman to ever swim across the English Channel.And we look at a filmed version of Chaz Palminteri's one-man play version of "A Bronx Tale" which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. And if it's gritty you're after we've got "The Bikeriders" which features an amazing cast including Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer, Austin Butler and Michael Shannon. So listen in!
