Reggie Interviews: The Paper Tigers
I got a chance to speak with the cast of the movie The Paper Tigers: Alain Uy (Helstrom, True Detective), Ron Yuan (Mulan, Marco Polo) and Mykel Shannon Jenkins (The Bold and the Beautiful). The conversation begins with Ron trying to eat a little something and we get a real laugh about his inability to share his food or his unwillingness to do so.
The studio describe the film as follows: Three martial artists—notorious in their prime as “the three tigers”—have grown into middle-aged men one kick from a pulled muscle. But after their teacher’s murder, they must juggle dead-end jobs, dad duties, and old grudges to avenge him.
The Paper Tigers is in theaters and on digital May 7.

The Reel Critic Roundtable: Zack Snyder’s Justice League, Genius: Aretha and Tina
This week Shawn, Kathia, and I talk about the movies Zack Snyder’s Justice League (and we disagree), Genius: Aretha (and there are some STRONG opinions), and the documentary Tina (I think we agreed). We also talked about if The Golden Globe Awards Show needs to be replace given their lack of diversity and systemic issues, the importance of the NAACP Image Awards and some needed changes, and Disney’s decision to drop the movie Black Widow in Theaters and on VOD simultaneously. Lively discussion. #film #movies #ElevateBlackVoices
