Once again commissioner Fernando Rodriguez (you may better know him as FernNYC17 on our forums) steps up with a choice selection, this time the oft maligned Return of the Jedi.  Often dismissed as derivative or childish when compared...

Jim and A.Ron have seen Thor: Ragnarok and let us be the millionth person to tell you that it is fun and colorful.  There isn’t much else there, but director Taika Waititi ensured that it’s really fun...

A.Ron and Cecily went to do a make up review of the Coen Brothers written, George Clooney directed film Suburbicon, and it’s not great, Bob.  Cecily saw some interesting things with the social commentary and A.Ron is in agreement that...

A.Ron and Cecily begin a tradition of discussing the scary movies they’ve been watching throughout the Halloween season!  The first annual, “Cinema Spooktacular”!  No spoilers to scare any body off, we just talk about just how and what...

A.Ron and Jim saw Jackie Chan’s return to action form in The Foreigner, a Taken-esque revenge film where a grieving father takes it upon himself to avenge the death of his beloved daughter at the hands of IRA bombers.  It’s great...

Jim and A.Ron went to see Bladerunner 2049 tonight, what did they think?  A.Ron thinks it’s amazing, absorbing, and needs multiple viewings to unravel all of it’s mysteries, while Jim thinks the same but wishes they’d cut about 20...

Special thanks to Ethan and Allison for commissioning Batman Begins, the first in the Nolanverse Batman trilogy (you can see our podcast on Batman: The Dark Knight here).  This is a fantastic comic book movie that also happens to...

Jim and A.Ron have seen the latest Tom Cruise vehicle, American Made, and it’s pretty good!  If you haven’t seen the past three seasons of Narcos or a “hey, it’s fun to watch charming people do really bad things until the third...

A.Ron and Cecily file a belated report on the smash hit horror movie based on the best selling Stephen King novel of the same name, “IT”.  Please enjoy our spoiler free review, but if you want our spoiler filled complete analysis of the film,...

Special thanks to Steven Sprague, celts77, Laura Hamilton, ztziemke, and Don C for commissioning this podcast, on the 1992 Quintin Tarantino crime drama, Reservoir Dogs.  We discuss the writing, the performances, our opinions on the true...

Jim and A.Ron saw Kingsman: The Golden Circle tonight, and pronounce it stupid, but fun.  Maybe ever so slightly less stupid than the first one, but also maybe not reaching quite the dizzying heights of crazy either.  But everyone in the...

Jim and A.Ron have seen Darren Aronofsky’s newest film, Mother!, and A.Ron hates it while Jim isn’t sure.  But it’s rated 78% on Rotten Tomatoes, so don’t let us put you off it.  It’s a piece of art, and it makes you feel...

We have seen The Dark Tower, being the latest attempt to adapt the works of Stephen King to the big screen.  How did it fair?  Well… Neither of us have read the novel series that the movie is based on, which seemed to be a plus,...

We saw the new action spy thriller Atomic Blonde tonight, starring Charlize Theron and James McAvoy.  We give universal praise to the action and the stars for delivering great performances and believable stunt work.  The visual...

We’ve seen Christopher Nolan’s new film, the war epic Dunkirk, and found it hard to immediately react to.  It’s a very visceral, claustrophobic, unflinching, and moving film, epic in scale, but equally effective in zooming in to...

Special thanks to our twin commissioners, Steven S. and Mozbeet for commissioning one of my very favorite films, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, directed by Peter Weir and based on the Patrick O’Brian series that is my very...

Hello, true believers! We have seen Spider-Man: Homecoming, and we pronounce it good.  Really, really good.  It’s kind of amazing how Marvel seems incapable of making anything less than a top level comic book film, and do...

Jim and I got to see Edgar Wright’s newest action/comedy/musical, Baby Driver.  And it’s glorious.  Jim calls it the most entertaining movie of the year.  High praise.  I was blown away by the nerdy charm and magnetism of...
