Midweek Mention.... Gremlins 2: The New Batch

December 23, 2020 07:00 - 20 minutes - 13.9 MB

Well we loved the first Gremlins movie, so we thought why not?! Three quarters of us revisited this one just recently. Dan couldn't be bothered, instead he was moonlighting on another podcast! We took him on a trip down memory lane to convince him this was worth another look.  Find out all the reasons why this is a stone cold classic.   We love interacting with our listeners, so please get in touch with us - @dads_film, on Facebook or via email to [email protected].

BDFR - Gremlins & The Snowman

December 18, 2020 07:00 - 1 hour - 67.8 MB

Across the world, families have traditional rituals to celebrate the relentless and depressing march towards the dead of winter and this year, with the added bonus of a global pandemic thrown into the equation and the near constant assault on our collective mental health that this brings, why not start a new tradition by listening to some idiots banging on about movies? I'm talking about the Bad Dads of course, and with any luck some of our inane chatter might distract you from the very real...

Nobody loves a Christmas movie more than the Bad Dads. In fact we've gone Christmas crazy this week.  First up for your listening pleasure we have our belated review of the Bill Murray Xmas classic, Scrooged.

Boy & The Inbestigators

December 11, 2020 07:00 - 1 hour - 59.9 MB

As I get older I tend to re-watch movies less than I used to; perhaps it's because as I have matured I understand the art form better and have more life experience to draw on to deconstruct cinema. Or maybe it's because as I get older and the spectre of  death draws ever closer I understand that I have limited time left to enjoy new experiences. And with that cheery thought in mind let us propel you towards our Top 5 movies you wish you hadn't rewatched. Maybe we didn't enjoy a second viewin...

Midweek Mention...The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

December 09, 2020 10:00 - 16 minutes - 11.2 MB

Time to go over an 80's classic, The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!  We loved this years ago, but have the years been kind to it? Is the humour dated or does it still make us laugh? I know what you're thinking? Are these guys seriously going to review this old nonsense? Well, I am serious and don't call me Shirley!!

December 04, 2020 07:00 - 1 hour - 60.4 MB

What are some good movies not set on planet Earth? That was the starting point for this weeks Top 5 as we discuss those films that didn't take place on the third planet from the sun. Predictably science fiction and fantasy movies reign supreme here as we gather some of the best movies in the cosmos, and of course there's a few jokes, although just like Halley's comet , some went right over our heads.

The Bad Dads are not universally sold on the horror genre. That is to say 75% of us won't watch them! This week Reegs makes the case for the highly rated His House. What are the chances of him actually managing to make the others man up.

BDFR - Lars and the Real Girl & The Epic Adventures of Morph

November 27, 2020 07:00 - 1 hour - 69.3 MB

“The lack of women directors in the industry is no joke. The top 100 films of 2019 were helmed by a total of 113 directors, 89.4 percent of whom were male and 10.6 percent of whom were female.” So said Women and Hollywood’s Melissa Silverstein after the 2020 Golden Globes once again featured an all male lineup in the Best Director category in a year where Greta Girwig (Little Women) and Lulu Wang (The Farewell) have had a strong case for inclusion. With this in mind, the Bad Dads Top 5 this ...

BDFR - Midweek Mention... Total Recall Vs Total Recall

November 25, 2020 07:00 - 15 minutes - 10.6 MB

Have you ever wondered which is the superior version of the movie Total Recall? Perhaps you find Arnold Schwarzenegger's performance in the 1990 version too understated. Maybe you felt that taking all the mutants and Mars setting gave the 2012 version a more grounded and realistic appeal... I think we all know which is the better move, but why not listen in to find out what we thought?!

Can You Ever Forgive Me? & Bear Gryyls: You vs Wild

November 20, 2020 07:00 - 1 hour - 56.6 MB

Despite the near-constant stream of adaptations of books made into movies, “the book was better” seems to be a popular conclusion. But is that always the case? Some of the most successful and beloved films of all times are based on books, and there's also the Harry Potter series. This weeks episode sees the dads debating which are the best movies based on books, and amazingly some of us knuckle-dragging morons have even picked up a novel or two over the years.  Dan nominated this weeks feat...

Never let it be said that we exist solely to review high brow cinematic offerings!  This midweek mention is all about 2017's Baywatch. Now there's a masterpiece if ever we've seen one. Turns out Dan hasn't seen this one. Reegs, Howie and Sidey give it the hard sell, but could we convince Dan to give it a whirl? Tune in to find out. Until next time, we remain...

Me and Earl and The Dying Girl & Clarence

It was a tumultuous week in politics; forget Joe Biden's dramatic victory over some guy whose name I can't recall and cast your vote for the Bad Dads Top 5 Memorable Movie Politicians. There's nothing rigged about this election as we veer from fascinating portrayals of real life political figures to ridiculous comic caricatures - see if you can spot which is which.

November 11, 2020 07:00 - 15 minutes - 10.5 MB

We don't just watch the big blockbuster fare round at the Man Cave. Sometimes we like to delve into the cinematic history books and revisit the films of bygone days... We took an explosive trip back to 1953 to discuss the merits of The Wages of Fear.  Should we file this one as one to forget, or is the an underappreciated classic. Only Dan and Reegs have the answer!  Until next time, we remain... Bad Dads

As an audience we are predisposed to expect our lead character will survive in the end, no matter how trying their circumstances may be so it's shocking when we witness the death of the main character in a movie. Our Top 5 discusses those films which surprised us by killing off their protagonists - needless to say spoilers follow! This weeks film review is Sam Mendes's 2019 multiple award winner 1917.

November 04, 2020 07:00 - 14 minutes - 10.1 MB

Following the sad news of the passing of Sir Sean Connery we thought it would be apt to revisit an old classic.  We got together to discuss the 1964 classic, and possibly never bettered, Goldfinger.  Not all the Dads are entirely convinced, but Sidey does his level best to convince of of the movie's classic status. **Apologies to any sound quality aficionados, something went awry in the second half of this episode, but you can still her us in all our glory!

We had so much fun recording last week's extra episode, we went and did it again. We watched, well some of us anyway, Bloodshot. The results were surprising!  Did anyone like it? Who could not enjoy the acting prowess of Vin Diesel? Couple that with some incredible state of the art CGI and you've got yourself a winning formula.  Tune in and let us know of any midweek masterpiece contenders. Until then, we remain Bad Dads

It takes time, money and meticulous planning to make a film but you wouldn't know it from some of the ridiculous goofs we discuss in our Top 5 Movie Continuity Errors. Some gaffs are more trivial than others but it seems like no film is safe from the perils of human error, from  Hollywood blockbuster to indie darling and everything in between.

No one asked us for additional material, but we did it anyway! We've started looking back at some films that have fallen though the cracks. Maybe you missed them the first time round. Perhaps they have improved with age. Or perhaps you simply forgot all about them. We're calling these our Forgotten Gems... First up for a critical reappraisal is the 1999 remake of The Thomas Crown Affair.  Sidey is convinced this is an under appreciated classic. Is he correct? Yes. Tune in and let us kno...

Here it is, the highlight of the week!  Yes that's just one of the awful, loosely hair-based puns you will have to endure in this episode as we kick off the show with a Top 5 Movie Wigs conversation. There are plenty of cutting remarks as Dan's promise not to tell quite so many of his hair-larious Dad jokes turns out to be a bald faced lie. I guess he just does it for the shear hell of it all. Can our friendship be salvaged or have we reached a split end?  The main feature this week is the...

October 02, 2020 06:00 - 1 hour - 57.5 MB

Huge budgets and A-list actors are just two of the things you'd be unlikely to find in Direct to Video (DTV) movies, and that's exactly the case in this weeks top 5 about movies released straight to video or streaming services. Perhaps you'll find out about some unknown classic in a subject close to Reegs's heart, or maybe more likely you'll find yourself hearing about the 3rd, 4th, 5th or later sequels to movies that no one cared that much about to begin with.

The stench of fear is palpable since it's Howie's turn to nominate. It's fair to say his track record is patchy at best so will this week be more Mid-90's than Brighton Rock? For the sake of all our sanity let's hope so. He starts us off with a Top 5 about comedic sidekicks and it soon becomes clear that not all of the dads understand that there is a difference between a sidekick and a supporting actor.

We were very lucky to be able to sit down with Cornish writer-director-editor Mark Jenkin, multiple BAFTA award winner and receiver of the Philip French Breakthrough Filmmaker award from the London Critics’ Circle Film to discuss his 2019 film BAIT. Mark was so generous with his time and gave us an amazing insight into the films themes and form, the labour of love that is working with physical film and the exceptional cast and community that helped create this incredible work.  We also dis...
