The Machine

“To be a hero, it takes a lot of gut.”

In 2023, Bert Kreischer is a stand-up comedian with a family to look after when a Russian mobster turns up, hellbent on dragging him back to answer for a drunken stretch of his youth. Peter Atencio sends Bert (Bert Kreischer) and his estranged father Albert (Mark Hamill) to retrace the steps of the younger Bert (Jimmy Tatro), through a war between rival crime families. Two men who barely talk are stuck in the same car, trying to find some common ground.
