Cinespection

Let's talk about The Flash like 3 months after everyone else (John only watched it this weekend). We haven't reviewed a new movie in a while, it seems. Is there superhero fatigue? If they keep making movies like this one, there definitely will be. Oh, and Batman and Supergirl and a whole of bunch of cameos are in it, too. Also deepfakes.

Today, we're talking about George Clooney's The Ides of March, a fantastic political thriller from 2011. The cast, led by Ryan Gosling, is amazing!

We wanted to review something different this week, so Gabe made John watch that weird Power Rangers reunion. Why did we like this as kids?

Hard to believe that Denzel Washington and Tony Scott's "Man on Fire" came out 19 years ago. It was (justifiably) trending on Twitter a couple of weeks ago, so we decided to revisit it.

We're doing a Van Damme double feature today! "Street Fighter" came out in 1994 and, well, it wasn't good. But is it as bad as they say?

Let's review Jean Claude Van Damme's 1988 classic, "Bloodsport". Did it inspire Mortal Kombat? Does it feature Van Damme's best splits? Is Forest Whitaker in it? Let's talk about it.

Well, for some reason, none of us had ever seen Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon". Let's talk about it.

Roland Emmerich directs James Spader and Kurt Russell in this cheesy, incredibly fun sci-fi adventure that just seems like the kind of movie we love to see.

Let's review the first episode of season 3!

Today, we review one of Peter Jackson's pre-Lord of the Rings films: Brain Dead. The film was released as "Dead Alive" in the U.S., and we're not sure what title we like more, because they're both great and also incredibly accurate.

Today, we dive into David Cronenberg's 1986 body horror classic, "The Fly". It was a first watch for both of us, so we can't say we weren't surprised to hear that Jeff Goldblum's voice has been the same for almost 30 years or that Geena Davis was in ANOTHER great movie. Let's talk about it!

Welcome to our new channel! This week, we'll be reviewing 90's action-packed Jean-Claude Van Damme starrer: Universal Soldier. The great Dolph Lundgren is also in it!

It took Gabe a month to get caught up with The Last of Us, but here we are. Let's review most of the show, but mostly Episode 7: Left Behind. More Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey!

This was such a great start for the new series. Let's talk about it!

We loved The Menu, it was so good. Tune in to watch us talk about it.

Phew, we're finally done with this. At least, it was great to see Warwick Davis come back.

So, Willow is definitely a show that exists. How can we talk about it without losing our sanity?

We are not afraid to say that we loved Violent Night, so let's talk about it. It's not an 80s movie, but it was more than good enough.

We both love Willow because of its 80s dark fantasy tone, and Disney of course had to use the IP to create something new. Is it worth watching?

More John Carpenter cause Gabe won't shut up about him. This one is not one of his best, but it's actually pretty good.

Sigh... this is why we usually stay in 80s. For some reason, we decided to watch Dwayne Johnson's latest overpriced popcorn film: Black Adam. Whatever, let's just get this done.

We met in person last Friday and decided to watch... movies. This was one weird movie marathon, where we jumped around genres, ate tons of snacks, and felt completely differently about each of them. Join us on this weird review/recap.

Do you remember Vanilla Sky (2001)? That film was actually a remake of a 1997 Spanish film called Abre los Ojos (Open your Eyes). Let's review it!

We decided to watch a new movie this time. It's one that most people are talking about more thanks to its behind the scenes drama, so it's kind of fun. Florence Pugh and Chris Pine are both great in it... but everything else, well... is not very good.

Gabe had (inexplicably) never seen First Blood (1982), even though he'd seen some of the sequels. Let's talk about this film that holds up better than most.

Gabe has been trying to catch up on John Carpenter films, so we watched "The Fog" this week. It's a horror cult classic, so what did we think of it?

Do you like Top Gun? Do you like Randy Quaid? Go no further than Days of Thunder, a film that is inexplicably not talked about as much. Tony Scott directed it, Tom Cruise is in it - let's go!

We loved the fourth season of Westworld. People said it was a return to form, but was the show ever actually bad? Let's talk about it.

Today, we'll be talking about Willow, another 80s jewel produced and co-written by George Lucas.

One of our favorite shows is back for another trippy chapter of AI insanity. It's Westworld time!

We're back to talk even more Stranger Things. We thought about reviewing more 80s and 90s movies, but there's just so much on this new season that we just needed to go over it.

We're back! And since it took us so long to come back for Season 3, we decided to change our name to Cynispection - why not, right?

Today, we'll be talking about Patrick Swayze's 1989 fighting classic: "Road House". Gabe did not think he'd like this one so much.

When we talk about Sam Raimi, we're always thinking about films like "Spider-Man", "Evil Dead", and, most recently, "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness". Well, he also made a western back in the 90s, and it's so great. Let's talk about it.

We apparently did not get enough of our John Woo fix when we reviewed "Broken Arrow", so we're bringing our friend Lo to discuss one of Woo's earlier movies: "Hard Boiled", starring two greats: Chow Yun-fat and Tony Leung.

"Halo" keeps getting better in this not-as-action-packed episode: "Solace".

We took a week off, but we're catching up.

Of course we'll talk about "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent", because Nic Cage and because it's sort of fun.

We're back reviewing movies you probably forgot about, but you really shouldn't. This time around: John Woo's great 1996 action film: "Broken Arrow".

We really love 90s Michael Bay on this show, so we're happy to see him back on track.

Still watching "Halo", still liking "Halo".

The second episode of Halo was pretty great, so let's talk about it.

Morbius came out last week and it did pretty well at the box office.... but what the hell is this? Is it even a "movie"?

Let's go back to 2015, where a very original and aspirational film called "Tomorrowland" failed to impress at the box office. But we have some thoughts about it.

A new series based on one of our favorite videogames is out. Let's review the first episode.

Wesley Snipes. Stephen Dorff. Leather. Techno. "Blade" (1998) is not forgotten. Let's talk about it.

So, the internet seems to have fallen in love with "The Batman" (2022), but did we? What did we think of this new take on the character?

We both grew up watching "Batman" (1989), but we hadn't seen it in a few years. With the years, it's easier to see new things and watch movies with a different mindset. Did the film hold up?

Roland Emmerich, known for films like "Independence Day" or "The Day After Tomorrow", is back for another disaster film: "Moonfall". Is it as fun as it should be? Let's discuss...

We unfortunately were forced to rewatch "The Next Karate Kid". It's cannon for "Cobra Kai", for some reason, so does that mean that we might see more of these new characters in the future (hopefully not)?

So, "Scream" was rebooted. Did we like it? We were pretty skeptical, but it seems like we were converted...
