About this listen

In this episode of Lowkey Cinephile, I talk about Thunderbolts — the new Marvel film that hit me harder than anything has since Endgame.

From the moment I watched Iron Man in 2008, I’ve been deep in the MCU, for better or worse. And lately, it’s been… kind of a mess (looking at you, Secret Invasion). But Thunderbolts? It brought all that love back.

This movie isn’t just about superheroes. It’s about depression, connection, and the weird, unexpected ways people become a family — even when they were never meant to.

I talk about what this movie really means to me, why the Thunderbolts feel more like a family than the OG Avengers ever did, and how a film can be a superhero movie, a drama, a comedy, and a quiet therapy session all at once.

Plus, I break down the biggest movie news of the week — from a new Lord of the Rings film to Netflix forgetting that the cinema still hits different.

🎧 New episodes every weekend.
Lowkey? Maybe. Cinephile? Always.
