This Week: Kevin kicks off the show with some possibly dangerous words about gender politics and judging actresses by their physical appearance. Then he rattles through some news and trailers before getting to the movies to review, which includes Home, Get Hard, Serena and It Follows. In the midst of all that he thwarts homophobia claims about Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart to take an alternate view of the progressive nature of what their film says about sexual assault. Later, he lays down the big pitfalls of the upcoming DC Cinematic Universe compared to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Finally, he wraps things up with some box office predictions and the world-famous DVD Round-Up!

Films covered this week include The Divergent Series: Insurgent, The Gunman, Do You Believe? and William Shakespeare’s Zombeavers. Later in the show, Kevin gets even more controversial with some thoughts about slacktivism and Ashley Judd suing for something other than sticks and stones.
