The Drama Review: This Movie Has Everyone Arguing… | Thumb War
About this episode
This might be the most divisive movie out right now.
On this episode of Thumb War, we break down The Drama — the new A24 film starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson — and try to figure out what it’s actually saying.
We get into:
- The “big secret” and why it’s so controversial
- Why audiences are completely split on this movie
- Moments that feel like comedy vs moments that feel… off
- What the movie might actually be trying to say about judgment and redemption
- Characters that are intentionally unbearable
- Why this feels like a “crazy pills” movie
Plus: the A24 expectations vs reality, and whether this is bold filmmaking… or just a mess.
