The studyTransmitting now on Apple TV+, seeks to answer a central question: can you ask great art and still make billions of dollars doing it? And in case you have wondered, the answer is no, but we will have a lot of fun on the way!
The study Follow Matt Remick's daily trials and tribulations, played by Seth Rogen, who gets the work of his dreams as head of continental studies, a film study whose work is to make the '' 'movies' movies' movies, you know, the type of movies that earn a lot of money at the box office, but they will not necessarily win a prize of the Academy.
I got into all this because I love movies. Now I have this fear that my work is to ruin them
Matt of the study
The problem is that Remick is a film devotee that dreams of making great films, the type of films that mean something for people. The type of films that are actually surrounded in the movie. Unfortunately, their efforts are frustrated in each step, normally by their own cowardice and eager to abandon all its principles to maintain their work, often with fun results.
What follows, more than ten episodes made and made in immaculately, is an overall comic action worthy of each award. Think of the excellent comedies based on the workplace as The office either Parks and recreationBut put them in the world of hotels in Los Angeles, parties and games of film that drip all the luxury and celebrities that only Hollywood can provide. And that without mentioning the cast of support that casually throws action giants such as Kathryn Hahn and Bryan Cranston to the mixture.
Attend
Many of the celebrities and film directors here are reproducing themselves, so many in fact that the list of cameons (courtesy of Collider) is longer than the cast list in most films.
Ron Howard, Martin Scorsese, Zack Snyder, Charlize Theron, and more, invite us to appearances. In fact, there are so many celebrities in each episode that some of them, such as Ben Stiller, appear in the background and are not even part of the plot.
But it's not just that The study It has some of the most clear satirical writings that you will find on any television program, it is made in such a captivating way. Long and single -camera shots are used almost all the time with whip pans through the screen at a dizzying speed, which makes you well in the conversation, which is driven by a jazz battery accompaniment that feels improvised, as if the drummer were playing live while the actors face their lines forward and backward. The battery often reflects the mood of the scene, slowly starting and building a crescendo, then tense and tight when it must be before indicating a change of sudden ventoso atmosphere when a key point of the plot is resolved.
The moment you realize that The study It is not just another Apple TV+ program in one of the best transmission services, but it is something really special is in the middle of episode one when Remick is trying to find a director for his ridiculous Kool's help film. Martin Scorsese actually appears, playing himself, throwing his script from the film to Remick, who despite receiving the gift of one of the great directors of all time in the world who wish to direct their ridiculously dumb film, then continues the ball spectacularly with hilarious results.
There are so many other excellent pieces that guarantee at least a really incredible moment in each episode, but I don't want to spoil the fun. Let me say that the Burrito incident stands out in my particular mind.
When considering how much money, Apple TV+ is losing a year (current estimates are around the $ 1 billion brand) to make such a television, I wonder if we will look back at 2025 as a higher point in the ridiculously good transmission programs and if we will ever see their similar, because again, because again, because The study He is there with the best Apple TV+programs.
