The Art of Self Defense (2019)

More delightful sick and twisted-ness, this is a dark comedy about a meek man, played by Jesse Eisenberg, who joins a dojo after he's randomly attacked. Alessandro Nivola is the sensei and Imogen Poots a fellow student. Heather McIntosh composed the music.

Director/writer Riley Stearns trains and teaches self defense. This is his second feature.

Eisenberg was last blogged for Café Society, Nivola for Disobedience, and Poots for A Late Quartet.

We saw it July 20, 2019, it's now streaming, and Rotten Tomatoes' critics rate is 83% and its audiences 63.
