Two movies are hitting theaters tonight. One is perfect with critics, and the other has “The Rock,” which promises to be perfectly fun. Here’s a look in this week’s Showtime.
Dwayne Johnson (as Hobbs in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “Pick a door.”
Jason Statham (as Shaw in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “All right, there.” *points at door behind him*
Dwayne Johnson (as Hobbs in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “No, that’s my door. Pick another door.”
Jason Statham (as Shaw in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “What’s wrong with you?”
*Hobbs and Shaw position themselves in front of their doors*
Jason Statham (as Shaw in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “You know what? You were right. This is your door.”
Dwayne Johnson (as Hobbs in “Hobbs & Shaw”): “What’s the matter? You got a lot of bad guys behind that door?”
“Hobbs & Shaw” stars a hometown fave: Dwayne Johnson.
In the “Fast & Furious” spin off, “The Rock” is back as Hobbs, while Jason Statham is Shaw.
They have to put their differences aside to stop Idris Elba from unleashing a biological weapon.
Dwayne Johnson: “The idea is let bygones be bygones. Let’s always come together as a family.”
Tzi Ma (as Haiyan in “The Farewell”): “You can’t say anything. The family thinks it’s better not to tell her.”
Awkwafina (as Billi in “The Farewell”): “Why is that better?”
Diana Lin (as Jian in “The Farewell”): “Chinese people have a saying: when people get cancer, they die.”
Not a single movie critic has dared to give “The Farewell” a bad review. It has a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes!
The film starring Awkwafina is about a Chinese family that decides to keep with Eastern traditions and not tell their grandmother she’s dying of cancer.
Tzi Ma (as Haiyan in “The Farewell”): “In the East, a person’s life is part of a whole: family.”
