Roundtable - Civil War | Monkey Man
April 16, 2024 15:04 - 49 minutes - 42.6 MBWe're understandably split on Civil War and impressed by Dev Patel's uneven but action packed directorial debut, Monkey Man.

Review - Fallout Season 1 | Civil War | The Greatest Hits
April 12, 2024 14:06 - 11 minutes - 10.3 MBThe new series Fallout continues to break the video game adaptation curse. Civil War will certainly be divisive. The Greatest Hits finds a sweet chord to strike. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com, instagram.com/werewatchingwhat youtube.com/thed...
Review - Monkey Man | Girls State
April 05, 2024 22:08 - 9 minutes - 8.98 MBDev Patel means serious ape business in Monkey Man. Girls State builds on the issues of its predecessor while continuing to charm. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com, instagram.com/werewatchingwhat youtube.com/thedhk...
Review - Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire | Wicked Little Letters
March 29, 2024 14:28 - 10 minutes - 9.68 MBIt's clear that Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will certainly not be our Roman Empire. Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley have a blast in Wicked Little Letters. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com, instagram.com/werewatchingwhat youtube.com/thedhk...
Roundtable - Immaculate | Palm Royale | Shōgun Episode 05
March 27, 2024 16:54 - 45 minutes - 39.4 MBSydney Sweeney's Immaculate is messier than intended. Palm Royale was tailor made for this group. Shōgun episode 05 continues to shake things up.

Review - Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire | Road House | Immaculate | Late Night with the Devil | Palm Royale
March 22, 2024 20:33 - 20 minutes - 18.9 MBWhile Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire ain't afraid of no ghosts, it is afraid of taking risks. Don't underestimate the unnecessary Road House remake. Immaculate lacks faith in the core premise. Late Night with the Devil rates high in our book. Palm Royale is elevated soap opera meets prestige comedy.

Review - Love Lies Bleeding | The American Society of Magical Negroes | Irish Wish
March 15, 2024 21:30 - 9 minutes - 8.95 MBLove Lies Bleeding is a tale of love at first bicep curl? The American Society of Magical Negroes has a great concept but mushy execution.

February 08, 2024 03:47 - 52 minutes - 48.9 MBMatthew Vaughn's Argylle has us more itchy with discomfort than fawning over fashion.

Review - Argylle | Scrambled | Orion and the Dark | The Tiger's Apprentice
February 03, 2024 00:07 - 14 minutes - 13.5 MBArgylle has a great premise but bumpy execution. Scrambled is an egg-cellent time. Orion and the Dark shines when it's being esoteric.

January 17, 2024 21:30 - 44 minutes - 41.1 MBDid we need to try to make fetch happen again with the new movie musical version of Mean Girls?

Review - Mean Girls (2024) | The Beekeeper | Echo | Ted
January 12, 2024 16:21 - 13 minutes - 12.9 MBMaking Mean Girls fetch (and into a musical) is a bold choice to attempt. Jason Statham + bees, what more could you want from The Beekeeper? Marvel's Echo deserves more than the spotlight. Finally everyone's favorite lewd bear, Ted, gets a funny but uneven prequel series.

January 06, 2024 00:40 - 13 minutes - 12.1 MBKicking off 2024 with 4 options: Godzilla Minus One which is a shockingly deep. Ferrari is more of a lemon than a sports car. The Boys in the Boat is rather bland in transit. Thankfully The Brothers Sun is a Michelle Yeoh vehicle to be reckoned with. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com, instagram.com/werewatchingwhat ...

Review - The Color Purple | Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom | Anyone But You | Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire
December 29, 2023 19:24 - 13 minutes - 12.6 MBThe latest adaptation of The Color Purple sings from stage to screen. We wish Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom had considered staying lost.

Review - Wonka | Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget | The Family Plan
December 15, 2023 14:00 - 13 minutes - 12.6 MBIt feels like Wonka is more sugar substitute than sweet. Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget is full of jokes that fail to fly.

Review - Poor Things | The Boy and the Heron | The Garden: Commune or Cult
December 08, 2023 19:25 - 10 minutes - 9.93 MBPoor Things builds a wild and rich world. Miyazaki's latest film, The Boy and the Heron might be one of his most personal. Finally, The Garden: Commune or Cult is more reality show than reality, but still watchable. Find us at: www.werewatchingwhat.com, instagram.com/werewatchingwhat youtube.com/thedhk...
