We’re not film critics. We’re not here to amuse ourselves. We’re here for you — because I know we can all use a laugh and a little bit of an escape. We discuss the movies, have some fun, and see if we can find some gems that the critics missed.

  • Absolutely the best

    Have been listening for over a year and have been through the whole catalog. The show has grown and settled into a good flowing format. This is a comedy podcast and not a movie review podcast. They happen to be talking about movies but in a comedic way and in their own opinions. If you want people who enjoy movies and riffing them and also pointing out good points then this is for you. If you want a movie critic review then maybe find another show.

  • Used to be better

    This show used to be better. Scene by scene was a fun recap, now it’s a contest between how insulting a host can be, or who makes the most obnoxious sounds. Also the show is geared toward the 20/30 favorite patrons they like the most. As they’ve gotten bigger as a show the quality has declined, and the personal interactions are lessened unless you are one of their favorites. So still a good show, but not what it used to be.

  • Bob is the WORST

    I’ll still give the show 5 stars because it’s that good, but Bob is garbage. He comes across like a 13 year old in an adult body that thinks he’s edgy.

#285 Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Q: Does Resident Evil: Retribution rule, or is it just another bad movie?

The hosts choose The Fifth Element, reasoning that it is the least inherently dangerous setting because people live ordinary lives there, unlike the war and perilous worlds in the other choices.
