The King of Staten Island is as good as we hoped. Now can we nominate it for any awards? As always, our Oscar Sprint Profile movie review is here to break it all down. You get non-spoilers for the first half & a big spoiler warning before we break down the plot.

We already raved over his Hulu film, Big Time Adolescence in march, his music videos on SNL Live At Home went viral, and we laughed our asses off at his new Netflix stand up special, Alive From New York. Now his life story gets the starmaker treatment from Judd Apatow, a director known for launching the careers of so many A-Listers. So true to form, Apatow & Davidson share the stage in The King of Staten Island with a great ensemble. If you’re still bored at home in your quarantine, do check out some of our reviews. Our Quarantine Collection playlist includes all kinds of watch at home options from our 6 OSP’s from Onward to Da 5 Bloods, streaming service overview episodes from Apple TV+ and The Banker to Amazon Prime’s Blow The Man Down to several options on Netflix like Lost Girls & Crip Camp. Also tune into our MMOW episodes where we review a ton of other new movies, tv shows, and even some sports & youtube shows in our What We’re Watching segments. They are all spoiler free just like the first half of this show. Should Pete Davidson have some moments this awards season? What are his chances at the Academy Awards? Does Judd Apatow finally crack into the original screenplay category? Or does this film just become another career launching endeavor for the next generation of hilarious comedians? We break it all down throughout this review. If you’re enjoying our show, please take a few moments to leave us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts.
