Two New York hustlers are in the 70s recruited by an ambitious FBI agent who has lured them. Trapped In exchange for their freedom they need to help him in a job that is increasingly out of control. American Hustle is almost excessive in its humor, typical characters, 70s-style crooks who continually try to outdo each other, but it bears only to a compelling film that is led by a perfect cast.
After a rough start to 2025 with Brave New World, Marvel hopes to strike back with Thunderbolts. Featuring a ragtag group of misfits from previous MCU movies and a new character that’s insanely powerful, Thunderbolts tells the story of damaged people overcoming their trauma to become heroes. RPadTV host Raymond Padilla is joined by videogame industry veterans Paul Semel and Marcus Beer to discuss the movie and see if it lives up to its comic-book tagline of “Justice, Like Lightning.”
The three will discuss what they liked and didn’t like about Thunderbolts, including their favorite performances and scenes, as well as what could have been improved. Early reviews of the movie have been strong and RPadTV’s version of Thunderbolts (The Sparklers?!?) can’t wait to talk about the latest MCU movie with you.

Good conversation otherwise, though.
