My gf made me watch the Fall Guy, and to my surpise it was not about the video game and instead was about stuntmen. It was a very stupid (in the best way) rom com with tons of fantastic stunts. It was a bit masturbatory but it was very entertaining. It's one of those movies you feel like everyone involved had a good time.

Has anyone else seen it and if so what are your troughts?

Great movie, underrated for sure. Their maketing missed opportunities to showcase the point well.

The movie is all practical stunts, broke multiple world records for stunts, and was made to celebrate old school stunt work and filmmaking.

The plot is blatantly corny and cheesy, but in a way that I felt was way funnier than expected, it's a great time!

There's also a documentary about the stunts behind the scenes that was surprisingly fantastic. I think it was on Peacock? Worth checking out.

Corridor Crew has a great interview/BTS episode on this movie. It was the reason I went out to the theater and I'm glad I did!
