The Suicide Squad

The Suicide Squad

Is it a reboot? A sequel? Does it matter? No. The brand new "The Suicide Squad" (2021) includes a lot of death, a lot of violence, and a lot of John Cena. Hear what Kim and Michael think of this new flick, available for a limited time on HBO Max, in this week's episode!

Aug 13, 202106:03
The Phantom

The Phantom

In 1996, Billy Zane got fit, threw on a purple leotard, and pranced around the screen as the title character in "The Phantom." How does it fare compared to today's big-budget action superhero movies? Hear what Kim and Michael have to say in this week's 3 minute random review!

Aug 06, 202105:29
Striptease

Striptease

Back in 1996, Demi Moore took a the biggest paycheck ever for an actress all the way to the bank for appearing in "Striptease." Kim and Michael flipped a coin, then failed to remain on their random sides of the argument whether this movie was good or bad. But the one thing they could agree on: it was better than "F9."

Space Jam: A New Legacy

In The Heights

The brand new musical, "In The Heights" (2021), based on the popular Lin-Manual Miranda Broadway musical, is currently rated at over 95% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Jun 18, 202106:05
The Woman In The Window

The Woman In The Window

Amy Adams shines in the new "The Woman In The Window" (2021). But does this Netflix thriller, which leans heavily into Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window" (1954), do enough to break free? Listen to hosts Kim and Michael debate this flick in well over 3 minutes (as usual).

Jun 11, 202105:54
The Last Airbender

The Last Airbender

In 2010, M. Night Shyamalan put out what he thought was his greatest movie.

Hear the 3 minute review by hitting that play button!

Tom Clancy's Without Remorse

Tom Clancy's Without Remorse

This week, Kim and Michael turn to a new Amazon release staring Michael B Jordan, "Tom Clancy's Without Remorse" (2021). This set-up to a Rainbow Six franchise includes some spectacular action scenes, but does it do more than that? Listen to the full 3 minute debate and review now to find out!

Mortal Kombat (2021)

Mortal Kombat (2021)

It's time for a new Mortal Kombat movie! The new reboot of the film based on the popular video game series, "Mortal Kombat" (2021), available on HBO Max until May 23, focuses on world building and extreme gore. But it's missing a certain musical sound throughout the film that annoys both Kim and Michael in their random debate.

Hillbilly Elegy

Hillbilly Elegy

Ron Howard's "Hillbilly Elegy," released on Netflix in November of 2020, features incredible performances by a cast led by Amy Adams and Glenn Close (who was nominated for both an Oscar and a Razzie). But it's controversy over it's portrayal of Appalachia and the "hillbilly" marred it from he beginning. That said, Kim and Michael still watched it in honor of the annual Academy Awards, flipped a coin, and attempted to debate whether this was good or bad. Listen to hear their take, and let us know what you think!

Apr 23, 202106:31
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Back in 2010, Disney cast Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role of "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time." Hoping this video-game adaptation would overcome it's whitewashed cast, it's big action scenes and set pieces were left overshadowed. Listen to our full 3 minute debate to hear what Kim and Michael thought of it!

Apr 16, 202105:25
Godzilla vs Kong

Fifty Shades of Grey

Fifty Shades of Grey

On the heels of last week's "365 Days" disaster, Kim and Michael followed it up with the widely popular "Fifty Shades of Grey" (2015). How did it compare, and was it any good on it's own?

Mar 19, 202105:53
365 Days

365 Days

A note on this week's episode: while Kim and Michael did their best to remove any specific references to the explicit content of this week's movie, the film itself may be upsetting to some listeners, and inappropriate for any younger listers. Therefore, we highly recommend adults only for this week's show.

Last summer, Netflix premiered a highly controversial and sex-laden film, "365 Days" (2020). This Polish film based on a popular book series, is like "50 Shade of Gray" on steroids. What do Kim and Michael think of it? Listen to find out.

Mar 12, 202106:40
Tom and Jerry

Tom and Jerry

This week, Kim and Michael watched the new half human/half animated movie, "Tom and Jerry" (2021). Is this theatrical version of the beloved cartoon worth it? Hear what Kim and Michael have to say in this week's review!

Plan 9 From Outer Space

Plan 9 From Outer Space

As we begin 2021, what better way than to watch a movie widely considered one of the worst of all time? Ed Wood's masterclass in horrible filmmaking, "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959), did not disappoint as Kim and Michael share their thoughts on this utter train wreck.

Home Alone 3

Home Alone 3

1997's "Home Alone 3" is heavy on the violence, misogyny, and poorly crafted geopolitical subplot. This week's Christmas movie, suggested by Michael's friend Eric, failed to tick any boxes for Michael and Kim.

Suicide Squad

Suicide Squad

2016's "Suicide Squad" had all the hype of being a great movie, with an A-list cast including Will Smith and Margot Robbie. But even their good performances couldn't save this mess of a movie from continuing the DCU's poor showing on the big screen. Hear Kim and Michael break it down in their 3 minute review.

The Avengers

The Avengers

Before Marvel gave us a great movie, a movie version of a popular 1960's British TV show hit theaters in 1998, and even though it included Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman, and Sir Sean Connery, it was not a good movie. Listen to our 3 minute review to hear what Kim and Michael thought of it.

Nov 04, 202006:50
Scream 3

Scream 3

We wrap up October "Scream 3," that beat out fellow horror sequel "Halloween 4" to be our final Halloween movie. And while Kim and Michael haven't seen any of the previous Scream movies, they can easily see that this trilogy finale was failing.

Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat

1995 saw a classic entry into the video game turned movie class: "Mortal Kombat." It has epic music and fight scenes, but does that make it any good?

Sep 23, 202006:32
My Spy

My Spy

Dave Bautista's new feature, available on Amazon Prime, has received a 47% on Rotten Tomatoes, but overall, Michael found it enjoyable. Did Kim agree, and break Michael down?

Sep 16, 202005:04
Howard the Duck

Howard the Duck

Back in 1986, George Lucas teamed up with Marvel comics and made the infamous "Howard the Duck." It was not a good movie, and we'll tell you why.

Sep 09, 202005:47
Gotti

Gotti

2018's "Gotti," staring John Travolta as the titular New York City mobster boss, failed to accomplish any task other than becoming our first movie that has earned a 0% ratting on Rotten Tomatoes.

BONUS Bond, James Bond: Skyfall

BONUS Bond, James Bond: Skyfall

Kim needed a pallet cleanser, so here's a special bonus episode of a GOOD MOVIE! 2012's "Skyfall," considered by these two film fans as the best of Bond, includes stellar performances, a well executed script, and complex characters.

Aug 26, 202005:50
Bond, James Bond: A View To A Kill

Bond, James Bond: A View To A Kill

We've come to the end of a month of bad Bond films, and finish with 1985's "A View To A Kill." Roger Moore's final outing as Bond was easily the worst of the franchise, as even Christopher Walken couldn't save this poorly written and acted escapade.

Aug 26, 202005:31
Bond, James Bond: Octopussy

Bond, James Bond: Octopussy

As we continue a month of reviewing bad James Bond movies, we find ourselves at 1983's "Octopussy." The second to last Roger Moore film may have been engrossing to watch, but in review, had several issues including one-dimensional characters, and a fatherly looking James Bond.
