Low Key

Those Who Wish Me Dead, the awesomely titled new thriller from Taylor Sheridan, stars Angelina Jolie as a smokejumper who must protect a boy with valuable secrets from a pair of assassins.Does it work? We're divided this week, in large part because we aren't sure if the MacGuffin at the center of the film works. (A MacGuffin, of course, is a plot device that serves no real purpose except to move things along.) What we do agree on is the cast is great and the fire sequences are spectacular.Also this episode: We'll explain to anyone saying "what the hell is a smokejumper" exactly what that means.
