Hello and welcome to The Lazy Opinion Podcast! We are Ahsen and Sana, a dynamic brother and sister duo (respectively) with A LOT to say about the movies we watch. Each week we take a movie and tear it apart(jk) discuss and dissect it.

    Episode 26: Tenet (2020) (We're back, sorry!)

    To our 5 listeners, sorry for our unexpected hiatus. Lots of life changes have occurred here at The Lazy Opinion HQ. Reconnect with us as we discuss Tenet, a total cluster of a movie. Hats off to those who made heads or tails of this plot on the first watch. But, we do acknowledge the superb filmmaking of this Christopher Nolan special. And, there’s our beloved Robert Pattinson. Need we say more?

    Episode 25: When Harry Met Sally (1989)

    Oops! This was supposed to be Episode 24, but we were so excited about Minari, we jumped the gun. Oh well. In THIS episode, we discuss the classic rom-com When Harry Met Sally, which stars Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan. In this movie, Harry and Sally argue over whether men and women can just be friends. Let us know what you think by emailing us thelazyopinion@gmail.com!

    Episode 24: Minari (2020) (with Erik Kwak)

    In this episode we discuss Minari (2020) with our guest Erik Kwak! Listen as we delve into the Korean-American experience as featured by director Lee Issac Chung. Also, check out the excellent work of Erik Kwak at erikkwakphoto.com!

    Episode 23: Nomadland (2020)

    Join us in our discussion of Chloe Zhao's Nomadland (2021), a movie that is as beautiful as it is slow. But that's ok. Frances McDormand pretty much plays the role of her life in this one. And we ponder on the nomad lifestyle portrayed in this slice-of-life feature. Who needs a house?

    Episode 22: I Care a Lot (2020)

    I Care A Lot, another Netflix release with big names like Rosamund Pike and Peter Dinklage. But did WE care a lot? Listen and find out in our latest discussion of this caper that features very convenient plotlines and characters with a shameless lack of morality.

    Episode 21: Judas and the Black Messiah (2021)

    Celebrate Black History Month with us, as we review Shaka King's Judas and the Black Messiah, a 2021 release. This movie covers the rise of radical leader Fred Hampton (Daniel Kaluuya) from the perspective of his betrayer, William O'Neal (LaKeith Stanfield). We appreciated how the movie portrayed the various radical movements throughout 1970s Chicago with a matter-of-fact, slice-of-life tone. Watch it and let us know if you agree!

    Episode 20: Gone Girl (2014)

    It's Valentine's Day!  Join us as we celebrate the enduring hate-love of Nick and Amy Dunne in David Fincher's Gone Girl (2014). We thoroughly enjoyed this tale of tenacious long-term planning, epic diary writing, and Cool Girl Monologue-ing. And we'll love you even if you don't remain a size 2 while eating cold pizza. That's how cool we are.

    Episode 19: Contagion (2011)

    Ok peeps.  This is it.  This is our contribution to humanity.  In this episode, we cover Steven Soderbergh's Contagion (2011).  And we prepared for this episode rigorously - we cleansed our hands, disinfected our work areas, and stayed not just 6 feet, but 300 MILES from each other.  The CDC would be proud.  Grab your favorite hand sanitizer (we all have one, now), and give this episode a listen.  Stay festive!
