Episodes
Dune (Part Two)
June 26, 2024 16:00 - 44 minutes - 25.9 MBTwo 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 MBDune (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 MBAfter 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 MBDragon 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 MBAnd 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 MBA 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 MBDungeons 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 MBCome 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 MBCome listen to an extended episode from Andrew, myself, and our guest host Dan; as we tackle the surprisingly deep 1995 “A Goofy Movie”.

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 MBMerry 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 MBA 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 MBA 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 MBBy 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 MBIn 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 MBThe 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 MBSymbol 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 MBThough 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 MBThe 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 MBFantastic 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 Meg
November 22, 2021 14:36 - 32 minutes - 19.6 MBAfter 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

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 MBApollo 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 MBA 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 MBBo 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 MBThis 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

Spirited Away
January 16, 2021 11:59 - 44 minutes - 31.8 MBAlthough 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 MBMerry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!

Uncut Gems
December 14, 2020 10:11 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MBOn 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 MBHey everyone! We have an exciting episode today; our first real guest is joining us to review this wonderful film.

The Conjuring
October 31, 2020 10:08 - 36 minutes - 24.9 MBThe 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 MBThe 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 MBAndrew 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 MBEven 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 MBIt 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 MBTodays 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 MBAs 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 MBA 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 MBIn 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 MBCONTENT 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 MBWe 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 MBGlobally 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 MBDuring 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 MBThis 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 MBAnother 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
