Nope, 1Up, Don't Make Me Go, Mr Malcolm's List | July 2022 Movies

The July episode of Incluvie Movie Highlights provides 4 exciting films that have polarizing reviews! Special guest and Incluvie movie critic Daleyna joins in to discuss Mr Malcolm's List [https://www.incluvie.com/movie/mr-malcolms-list-716532], a regency-era film set in England, starring leads of Indian and African heritage (Freida Pinto and Sope Dirisu), which is a first! Don't Make Me Go [https://www.incluvie.com/movie/dont-make-me-go-861072], starring an Asian and Blasian lead (John Cho and Mia Isaac), is a sincere film with a controversial ending! Don't worry, no spoilers. 1Up [https://www.incluvie.com/movie/1up-767401], about a team of female gamers led by Paris Berelc, who's half Asian, receives acclaim on Incluvie, but much hate everywhere else on the internet. And the feature film... is Nope [https://www.incluvie.com/movie/nope-762504] ! One cohost thinks the film was imaginative, while the other cohost insists it was boring (but with good social commentary)! Who thought what?
