Episodes

June 26, 2024 16:00 - 44 minutes - 25.9 MB

Two episodes in two days! Whats going on?! Join Andrew and I as we praise this film and everything about it as though it was the new messiah  44 mins

Dune (2021)

June 25, 2024 14:31 - 37 minutes - 21.6 MB

Dune (2021) Not really much I can say here that will surprise anyone. We both absolutely loved this film to pieces. 38 mins   Stay tuned for Dune part 2 very soon!

Mandy

June 04, 2024 20:38 - 46 minutes - 31.8 MB

After a loooong hiatus, we are back with an old episode that's been kicking  around the archives waiting to be edited and released. Well...here it is! This was (of course) Andrew's choice and Daniel...didn't like it to say the least. 46 mins

Dragon Inn (1967)

February 07, 2024 12:00 - 34 minutes - 19.5 MB

Dragon Inn (1967) Cleaning out the 2023 backlog we have a very unusual film suggested by Andrew. One of the early Wuxia films, they were clearly still finding their feet in many aspects. That aside it is a thoroughly enjoyable film if you are aware of its very rough edges. 34 mins

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

January 26, 2024 15:23 - 42 minutes - 24.1 MB

And we're back! After a short break of....too many months we are returning with a late 'Christmas' film. Continuing from completing the Lord of the Rings trilogy last year we are now staring The Hobbit. 42 mins

Rumble Fish

May 23, 2023 12:00 - 44 minutes - 25.7 MB

A real conflicting film today. Andrew absolutely loved it; while Daniel started the episode kind of liking it, but by the end clearly hated it. 45min (In hindsight, it was a good film but far to 'Artistic' for my liking - Daniel)  

Dungeons and Dragons : Honour Among Thieves

May 16, 2023 13:16 - 42 minutes - 24.5 MB

Dungeons and Dragons : Honour Among Thieves (Warning: Spoilers throughout with no forewarning) This week we enjoy a surprisingly new film. Although made for Daniel in its entirety, Andrew also enjoyed it. As it stands, it is unlikely to be kicking off a franchise any time soon unfortunately. 43 mins

Cop Land

April 21, 2023 12:00 - 42 minutes - 26.7 MB

Come listen to Daniel and Andrew discuss the many merits and detriments to today's film. With a star-studded cast, is Daniel a little too harsh? 43 mins

A Goofy Movie

April 16, 2023 10:10 - 53 minutes - 30.4 MB

Come listen to an extended episode from Andrew, myself, and our guest host Dan; as we tackle the surprisingly deep 1995 “A Goofy Movie”. Dan is the proprietor of “The Goods Reviews” where you can find many wonderful insights into films old and new. He also hosts a podcast there too with his co-host Brian.  https://thegoodsreviews.com/ https://thegoodsreviews.com/podcast/

The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King

December 25, 2022 06:00 - 50 minutes - 29.3 MB

Merry Christmas, Happy holidays, and Happy New Year to all! We return with our traditional Christmas special finishing off the incredible Lord of the Ring Trilogy with The Return of the King. Surprising nobody I'm sure, we both loved it! 51 mins

The Man Who Knew Infinity

December 13, 2022 22:11 - 29 minutes - 17.2 MB

A film that was a hit for one of us and a miss for the other. A weaker film than expected, but it might depend on your expectations going in. 30 mins

High Plains Drifter

November 30, 2022 12:05 - 45 minutes - 26.2 MB

A very unusual Western for today's episode. A fairly generic Western with horrible additions which makes it generally awful. 46mins

Rubber

September 16, 2022 12:00 - 46 minutes - 26.8 MB

By far one of the most convoluted films we have had to pick apart. A film known as "the one with the killer tire", has a surprisingly deep multi-layered plot which is hard to keep track of at times. We both really liked it though.  45mins

Twins

September 03, 2022 22:49 - 31 minutes - 18.3 MB

In today's episode Andrew and I chat about the amusing Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito buddy film, Twins. A film that could clearly do with less tasteless backstory and more funny-pair hijinx. 32 mins

The Terminator

July 08, 2022 14:54 - 42 minutes - 29.6 MB

The Terminator Sometimes you just know a film isn't going to be for you. Nevertheless, Daniel went along for the ride and watched the Terminator (at last). He didn't like it. Andrew loved it of course. 43 mins

Symbol

April 20, 2022 12:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MB

Symbol A wild, unpredictable, and absolutely crazy film. Listen as Andrew and Daniel try to put meaning and structure into the truly bizarre.  We did love it though. 34 mins

Constantine

March 19, 2022 07:23 - 36 minutes - 25.4 MB

Though a touch off the source material overall a fairly ok film. This sort of film falls squarely in Daniel's Ballpark so he enjoyed it a lot. 37 mins

The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf

February 04, 2022 14:00 - 51 minutes - 35.2 MB

The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf A Witcher cake with Castlevania icing and a healthy sprinkle of Avatar on top? Yes, I'll have two slices to go thank you very much! On today's episode we have a very special guest joining us, Caleb Wimble from the wonderful WOTCast. Please go and have a listen to their insightful look into Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time. https://www.wotcast.net/  

Fantastic Planet

February 01, 2022 17:23 - 36 minutes - 25.4 MB

Fantastic Planet A suprising gem for Daniel and a film Andrew has long wanted to watch, todays episode is the wonderfully odd French animation La Planète sauvage 36 mins Note: Due to nonsense with out publishing host this may appear twice in certain locations.

The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers

December 25, 2021 08:00 - 1 hour - 43.7 MB

The Meg

November 22, 2021 14:36 - 32 minutes - 19.6 MB

After a LONG break, Andrew and Daniel are back with a rather disappointing film to start. Daniel, hoping that this is a fun but dumb film is quick convinced by Andrew that this is unfortunately just a bad film. 32 mins

The Fear Street Trilogy

September 01, 2021 12:00 - 1 hour - 48.3 MB

**SPECIAL EPISODE** The Fear Street Trilogy w/ Brennan Klein On today's episode we are joined by the amazing Brennan Klein to discuss all three films in the Fear Street trilogy.

Apollo 13

August 21, 2021 19:42 - 38 minutes - 22.4 MB

Apollo 13 Come and have a listen as Daniel and Andrew discuss this fairly well aged film, starring the amazing Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, Ed Harris and Gary Sinise. 39 mins

Possessor

July 08, 2021 20:34 - 45 minutes - 31.5 MB

A real head-trip of a film that although rough around the edges left us with wanting more. Would it have made a better TV show? Probably. 46 mins

Bo Burnham - Inside

June 19, 2021 13:54 - 41 minutes - 28.4 MB

Bo Burnham - Inside A wonderfully odd film (?) which challenges a lot of social media practises and norms. Also the songs are funny. 42 mins

The Martian

May 27, 2021 20:12 - 45 minutes - 31.5 MB

This week we look at one of Daniel's favourite films of the past decade! Although not perfect it's clear this film holds a firm place in both host's hearts. 46 mins

Da 5 Bloods

January 31, 2021 17:10 - 47 minutes - 32.9 MB

Today’s film follows 4 aging war vets as they search for their fallen comrade and some long-lost gold! A fantastic film portraying the harsh aftermath of the Vietnam War from the perspective of an African American. 48 mins long

Spirited Away

January 16, 2021 11:59 - 44 minutes - 31.8 MB

Although perhaps a touch over-hyped by its dedicated fanbase, this is a wonderfully enchanting film which we cannot recommend highly enough. 44mins

The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring

December 25, 2020 08:00 - 59 minutes - 41.1 MB

Uncut Gems

December 14, 2020 10:11 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MB

On today's episode we look at the very well received Adam Sandler movie, Uncut Gems. A film depicting how addiction and some fairly poor decision making can lead to an awful situation. 43 mins   NOTE: This episode is heavily edited due to several recording and technical issues. Sorry

The Matrix

November 28, 2020 10:09 - 54 minutes - 37.6 MB

Hey everyone! We have an exciting episode today; our first real guest is joining us to review this wonderful film. Rob from Alternate Ending helps us review a much-loved classic of Science Fiction.

The Conjuring

October 31, 2020 10:08 - 36 minutes - 24.9 MB

The Conjuring A film that neither of us liked but for significantly different reasons.  Come and listen to our 2020 Halloween special! 36 mins

Dune (1984)

October 22, 2020 10:45 - 54 minutes - 38.5 MB

The second viewing for both of us after several years, and to be honest we are still not fond of it. Come and listen to Daniel and Andrew try to pull apart both a messy production and a messy film. 54 mins

The Night Comes for Us

October 04, 2020 20:00 - 33 minutes - 23.4 MB

Andrew and Daniel talk about the brilliantly choreographed if extremely violent 2018 Indonesian action film. With a rather weak plot, if fierce martial arts with a focus on injury is not your thing, you might want to give this film a miss. 34 mins

FRO7

September 16, 2020 09:26 - 43 minutes - 29.8 MB

Even after watching this film together, both Andrew and I are still unsure if it really exists. A wild fever dream of a film that is as fun as it is terrible. Come and listen to us try to explain how obscurely wonderful this unknown film truly is. 43 mins

Torque

August 30, 2020 06:46 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MB

It was hated when it came out and it is still hated now. Come and listen to us rip this film apart, trust us it deserves it 30mins

The Bridge on the River Kwai

August 15, 2020 13:22 - 42 minutes - 29.7 MB

Todays review is on the critically acclaimed The Bridge on the River Kwai; a 1957 adventure war film that focuses nicely on the individual rather than the overall war. With a fantastic cast, crew, location, and story it is hard to find the faults in a film of this calibre. 43mins

Kiki's Delivery Service

July 21, 2020 10:57 - 34 minutes - 24.1 MB

As we start our long journey of Studio Ghibli films, our first pick is one of the most gentle in their repertoire. Listen as Daniel and Andrew wander around various topics and discuss the similarities between Kiki's Delivery Service and 2004 Spiderman 2. 34mins long

Rigoletto

June 24, 2020 06:09 - 29 minutes - 20.5 MB

A short and off-track episode this week with the review of an early 80s Operatic film. While good and generally enjoyable we thought the medium of film detracted from the overall experience. 30 mins

The Wandering Earth

June 07, 2020 14:46 - 37 minutes - 25.7 MB

In this weeks episode Andrew and I look at this 2019 Chinese sci-fi  blockbuster. While the execution of this film was fairly poor we have to give them credit for really going all out in the ridiculous plot. 38 mins

Climax

May 24, 2020 10:59 - 34 minutes - 23.6 MB

CONTENT WARNING - This episode contains frank discussion of taboo subject matter, including sexualised violence and violence against children. In todays episode Andrew and Daniel review perhaps one of their most off-beat artsy film to date. While Andrew enjoyed it Daniel couldn't get over the 'contents' of the film. 34 mins

How to Train Your Dragon

May 10, 2020 14:11 - 40 minutes - 38.4 MB

We thought we would mix it up a little by going for a film that started a trilogy (so far) of amazing films. A well animated well made fun film that all can enjoy. 41 mins

The Stranger (1946)

April 16, 2020 14:06 - 38 minutes - 35.9 MB

"Orson Welles is da Bomb yo!", yes, you did read that right. Yes that is something that Andrew said. Why you ask? You'll need to listen to find out. 39 mins

The Intouchables

April 02, 2020 17:00 - 42 minutes - 38.8 MB

Globally a very popular film; this episode Andrew and Daniel tackle what we loved, liked, and disliked about this blockbuster. 42mins

Jojo Rabbit

March 20, 2020 17:01 - 46 minutes - 42.2 MB

During this long Corna (covid-19) season we thought we would dig  out our old podcasting kit and start a new batch of fresh episodes for you (yes I'm writing this while hungry). This week we are looking at the wonderfully fun, if not a little off-beat at times, Jojo Rabbit (46 mins)

A Time to Kill

March 31, 2018 12:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MB

This week's episode in which a radical shift in tone brings us an emotional legal drama about racism and potentially justifiable homicide.  A quick disclaimer - Due to our recording schedule and backlog note that at the time of recording the controversy surrounding Kevin Spacey was not yet known to us, thus why it is never mentioned. 48 mins

XXX: Return of Xander Cage

March 17, 2018 12:00 - 27 minutes - 18.6 MB

Another split opinion on this film. Is this film so bad that its become a wonderfully enjoyable film? Or, is it at best sort of OK but still not worth watching? It made lots of money and certain parts of the world seemed to really enjoy it. 27 mins
