This week on Movies You Forgot You Forgot, Adam and Joe take a reluctant trip back to 2016’s Captain Fantastic. What was once a quirky indie now feels like a confusing manifesto on bad parenting and questionable life choices.
They break down the film’s muddled philosophy on death, its oddball charm (or lack thereof), and why it brings the far superior Little Miss Sunshine to mind. Spoiler: some films are best left in the past.
