Episode 547 - "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood" (2019)
July 29, 2019 14:00 - 10 minutes - 9.83 MBHi everyone! Quentin Tarantino. What can you say that Samuel L. Jackson hasn’t said? It seems weird, but this will be our first Tarantino feature to be reviewed by the podcast. However, it will also definitely not be the last. And based on the initial critical reviews for “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood”, it seems like it won’t be the last Tarantino film to be produced, either. I’ll talk more about my love for Tarantino in a minute, but for a couple other films in the same vein (and let’...
Episode 546 - "Loving Vincent" (2017)
July 28, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 7.12 MBHi everyone! This week, One Movie Punch takes a giant step forward in podcasting. Not all podcasting, just for us within podcasting. On Monday, we’ll have our first, but by no means our last, Tarantino review for “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood”, which is already in the running for best picture. Tuesday we’ll have a new Takeover Tuesday participant with a review of a hit-or-miss horror movie. After those films will be our very first interview and review episodes, for 2018’s “Bullitt County”...
Episode 545 - "Late Night" (2019)
July 27, 2019 14:00 - 8 minutes - 7.46 MBHi everyone! Man, what a week here at One Movie Punch. New friends joined us, old friends returned, and that Disney movie... just when it was out of your head, huh? And there’s no better way to cap off another week of reviews than one from Amy Dobzynski, aka One Movie Spouse. Funny story: Amy texted me a picture of her movie ticket for today’s film while she was out running errands while our daughter was at work. I was happy for her, then told her she would need to write a review. She g...
Episode 544 - "Liza The Fox-Fairy" (2015)
July 26, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 6.73 MBHi everyone! Fridays are always fantastic around here at One Movie Punch, because our good friend Andrew Campbell always brings us another Fantastic Fest feature review. And from the looks of things this week, he’s definitely heading into some fantastic territory. I don’t want to say much about today’s film other than that it comes from the Hungarian film scene, which tends to have more surrealistic films. Don’t believe me? Check out reviews for “On Body and Soul” (Episode #038) and “White...
Episode 543 - "The Edge Of Seventeen" (2016)
July 25, 2019 14:00 - 8 minutes - 8.14 MBHi everyone! It’s a special episode here at One Movie Punch as One Movie Spouse and I are celebrating eighteen years of nearly perfect marital bliss. Amy’s constant encouragement and flexibility helped make launching this podcast possible, and now with her semi-regular reviews, helps make this show what it is today. Thank you so much everything, for the podcast and the past eighteen years. We have a special joint review for today’s film, but it won’t be the first time we’ve co-authored...
Episode 542 - "Knife + Heart" (2018)
July 24, 2019 14:00 - 8 minutes - 8.21 MBHi everyone! Today we welcome back Ryan L. Terry to the podcast, with a review for an international LGBTQ horror period piece starring actor, model and singer Vanessa Paradis. Both Ryan and I were waiting for this film to become available on streaming services, and it turns out Shudder had our back, finally. What did Ryan think about the film? He’ll let you know in a minute, but for a few other reviews from Ryan here at One Movie Punch, check out his first review for “Fried Green Tomatoes”...
Episode 541 - "Murder Mystery" (2019)
July 23, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 7.3 MBHi everyone! Welcome back to our first Takeover Tuesday of the third quarter, with the return of our good friends Julie and Kathleen from the How I Met Your Friends Podcast. Well, we’re good friends now, after a little group therapy over the minor little island invasion a few weeks back. First, we went to Central Perk for coffee, then to MacLaren’s Pub from there, and by the time we got through about 22 minutes of solid comedy with a hint of drama, everything turned out well for everyone. ...
Episode 540 - "The Lion King" (2019)
July 22, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 7.1 MBHi everyone! There’s a meme floating around right now that lists the movies currently in the theaters, and asking politely if we’ve moved back to the 1990s. And it’s a legitimate question, because I am totally living my middle school and high school years right now between Aladdin, Men in Black, and today’s remake of “The Lion King”. Disney’s latest string of exquisitely animated reboots of their classic titles have had mixed success with the critics, partly because it is hard to improve u...
Episode 539 - "Eighth Grade" (2018)
July 21, 2019 14:00 - 8 minutes - 7.39 MBHi everyone! Things have sure been busy here at One Movie Punch. Just before the break, we received a number of collaboration offers, from fellow podcasters, and to my surprise, some people in the actual film business. We have nearly a full slate of Takeover Tuesday reviews through September, beginning this week with the return of the How I Met Your Friends podcast with a new series of reviews for the show. We have the return of Ryan L. Terry with a feature that’s finally available on Shud...
Episode 538 - "Music Teacher" (2019)
July 20, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 6.75 MBHi everyone! Saturdays are always made better with another review from One Movie Spouse. We put today’s feature on hold after cleansing the palette last week from “Midsommar” with “Toy Story 4”. I have a stack of Bollywood films for Amy to review, and today feels like a good place to start. It’s a favorite genre of hers, and who am I to complain? For a few other Bollywood films, check out Andrew Campbell’s review for “Tumbbad” (Episode #432), “15 August” (Episode #495), and our recent re-...
Episode 537 - "The Standoff At Sparrow Creek" (2018)
July 19, 2019 14:00 - 6 minutes - 6.24 MBHi everyone! It’s Friday, so it’s time to hand the reins over to Andrew Campbell for our weekly Fantastic Fest review. I’m really hoping this week’s review pulls him out of a slump of mediocre to meh reviews, and being our fifth Certified Fresh film this week, the other critics suggest this is the case. Andrew will let us know his thoughts in a bit, but for a few more recent reviews from Andrew, check out “The Nightshifter” (Episode #515), “The Man Who Killed Don Quixote” (Episode #523), a...
Episode 536 - "I Am Mother" (2019)
July 18, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 6.89 MBHi everyone! Today, we’re welcoming back Garrett Wright of the Two Views Movies podcast for another review, this time a Certified Fresh Netflix Original from Australia. Garrett’s been busy finishing up 100 episodes of Two Views Movies, along with multiple guest appearances on other podcasts. For a few other reviews from Garrett, check out his very first review at One Movie Punch for “Creed II” (Episode #335), his excellent review for “Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse” (Episode #381), and ...
Episode 535 - "Diane" (2018)
July 17, 2019 14:00 - 6 minutes - 5.78 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for our third Certified Fresh film this week, this time from IFC Films, one of our favorites here at One Movie Punch. We haven’t reviewed many of their films, which we should definitely remedy, but for a few other films from IFC, check out “The Thin Blue Line” (Episode #021), “Into The Abyss” (Episode #053), and Mike Bales’ review for “The Man Who Knew Infinity” (Episode #317). If you have any recent suggestions from IFC Films, let us know! Subscribe to stay cur...
Episode 534 - "Woman At War" (2018)
July 16, 2019 14:00 - 6 minutes - 6.03 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for our second Certified Fresh film this week, this time a feature from Iceland, along with the French and Ukraine film scenes. We don’t get many films from Iceland, but they are generally very good. For a couple others, check out “22 July” (Episode #286) and “And Breathe Normally” (Episode #373). If you have any suggestions from Iceland, let us know by any means possible! We’re always interested in exploring international cinema! Subscribe to stay current with ...
Episode 533 - "The Man Who Killed Hitler And Then The Bigfoot" (2018)
July 15, 2019 14:00 - 5 minutes - 5.12 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for the first of five Certified Fresh films this week, starting with an absolutely irresistible title for someone who loves killing Nazis, cryptozoology, and intentional film-making. It is truly a film like no other, but for a few others that might be close, check out “Mohawk” (Episode #370), “John Wick – Chapter 3: Parabellum” (Episode #490), and “The Highwaymen” (Episode #493). All three involve hunts of their own sorts, although sadly none have a sasquatch. S...
Episode 532 - "Lust Stories" (2018)
July 14, 2019 14:00 - 5 minutes - 4.67 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for another week of reviews. This week, we have five, count ‘em five, certified fresh films for your consideration, all of which are available on streaming services, including reviews from Garrett Wright of Two Views Movies and our good friend Andrew Campbell. We’ll also finally hear that postponed review from Amy Dobzynski, aka One Movie Spouse towards the end of the week, another Bollywood feature, which brings us to today’s feature. If you’re wondering why I...
Episode 531 - "Toy Story 4" (2019)
July 13, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 6.64 MBHi everyone! I’ll let you all in on a little secret. We were originally going to have a Netflix Original movie for today, and while it is still on the docket for an upcoming review, we had to make a last-minute switch. No, not because Pixar released yet another film and it was scoring well with the critics. At least not just because of that. Once we left the theater after “Midsommar” (Episode #527), One Movie Spouse needed something to cleanse the palette, and I couldn’t think of a better ...
Episode 530 - "Hagazussa" (2017)
July 12, 2019 14:00 - 6 minutes - 5.89 MBHi everyone! It’s Friday, so that means another review from our good friend Andrew Campbell. I forgot to thank him last week for missing a whole week of work to liberate me from the bunker. He hasn’t had a good run of films lately, if you’ve been following his Twitter account. Will today be better? You’ll find out in a minute, but be sure to check out his recent reviews for “The Man Who Killed Don Quixote” (Episode #523), “The Nightshifter” (Episode #515), and “The Perfection” (Episode #50...
Episode 529 - "Predators" (2010)
July 11, 2019 14:00 - 7 minutes - 7.03 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for another film I was able to watch while trapped in the bunker. Last year’s “The Predator” (Episode #260) was on my must-see list, despite its lackluster performance with the critics and moderate haul at the box office. I was stoked when today’s film became available to me, since I had missed its theatrical release, and just never got back around to seeing it. Did it live up my expectations? You’ll find out in a bit. In addition to “The Predator”, you may want t...
Episode 528 - "Triple Threat" (2019)
July 10, 2019 14:00 - 5 minutes - 5.14 MBHi everyone! Here’s one of two films I was able to watch in the bunker, especially given the amazing cast, and in particular Iko Uwais. He’s definitely a favorite of mine ever since seeing “The Raid: Redemption” (Episode forthcoming), and the sequel, “The Raid 2” (Episode also forthcoming). For a couple other films, check out “Mile 22” (Episode #232), which has a few stylistic similarities to today’s film, and the incredible and brutal “The Night Comes For Us” (Episode #295). I also can’t ...
Episode 527 - "Midsommar" (2019)
July 09, 2019 14:00 - 8 minutes - 7.67 MBHi everyone! Welcome back for our second Certified Fresh film this week, Ari Aster’s “Midsommar”, his follow-up to last year’s “Hereditary” (Episode #525), which we re-ran earlier this week. Just when you think horror has found all its limits, new voices come forward to push the boundaries a little bit more, and we all get to reap the rewards. Well, all of us except most of the protagonists who don’t make it. For a few other films in this same vein, check out “A Dark Song” (Episode #489), ...
