MUSCLE is a psychological thriller that’s dripping in sweat, tears and testosterone...What did the Podcast Team make of MUSCLE? What's the message in the film? Is this the film that defines a dark side to Obsessive Training, Manipulative Characters and Self Loathing? Why does he let the monster into his life? What happens at the parties? Are they real or Actors? What is in the packages? And so much more. How high does it score on the Movieometer?SynopsisMuscle is the story of Simon (Cavan Clerkin, The Last Kingdom, The Capture) an unhappy, unambitious office worker whose life is gradually taken over by Terry (Craig Fairbrass, Villain, Rise of the Footsoldier) his new, hands-on personal trainer who reveals himself to be more committed, and more dangerous, than Simon could have ever imagined.Simon isn’t living the life he wants. He’s tired of his dead-end job at a call centre – and he isn’t even any good at it. He and his girlfriend are painfully drifting apart, he’s sick of his life and it’s time to make a change and hit the gym. But everything spins out of control when he draws the attention of Terry, who offers to coach him, and quickly becomes his boss, friend and roommate. Soon, Simon finds himself trapped in a self-destructive spiral with every aspect of his life resting in Terry’s hands, and no way out.With searing energy, incredible performances and a new soundtrack by the legendary THE THE, Muscle is one of the most original, must-see British films of recent times. Hosted by Mick Tully (MKG Coventry), Nathan Leverton (Leicester Shootfighters), Kurt Cornwell (MKG Detroit).#Muscle #NathanLeverton #MickTully #KurtCornwell #MKG #Detroit #LeicesterShootfighters #Coventry
