EntertainmentThis Almost Forgotten Adrien Brody and Jesse Eisenberg Cult Thriller Has More To Say Than Most in Its Genre

Before they were attending the Oscars in 2025, Jesse Eisenbergand Adrien Brody crossed paths in one of the most viciously sinister cult movies of the last few years. Eisenberg plays Ralphie, a role that begins as an archetypical performance for the Academy Award-nominated screenwriter but descends into an unexpectedly chilling performance. Manodrome shows the power of influence and how toxic a herd mentality can be in an environment without balance and disagreement. Despite being stripped back in substance, the movie is rich in ideology and shows a modern-day cult that critiques a crisis of masculinity.
