What started out as two average guys working a retail job together and talking about movies to make time go by faster has evolved into two average guys talking about movies on the internet for strangers to enjoy. In our podcast Complimentary Cinema, we watch movies that are available to watch for free on the internet so that anyone who wants to listen can watch them as well. Sometimes the movies are terrible garbage, and sometimes we find legitimately interesting movies. Roll the dice on quality with us as we endeavor to bring you our discussion about these awful, okay, or great movies, and watch them for free!

Crayon art can only mean one thing: we were very upset with this week’s movie! The Dawn started with some promise, but really lost itself in the middle section. We can’t recommend watching this movie, but we absolutely do recommend listening to our podcast poking holes in it! #thedawn #reallybad #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom
Weekend at Bernie’s is a slapstick comedy from the late 80s. It takes a decently humorous concept and stretches its SNL-sketch-level idea into a full length movie. Listen in this week as we discuss this film where not even death can stop the party! #weekendatbernies #dumb #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom
Journey to the West is a comedy-adventure movie about an underdog monk who has to overcome many obstacles to find his enlightenment. This demon-hunting crusader is armed only with nursery rhymes and an unrelenting energy. Join us this week for a modern take on a classic 16th century Chinese story. #journeytotheweset #journey #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom
Journey to a beautiful land of ice and snow with three main characters who struggle to find the meaning of their relationships, friendships, and place in the world. Frozen! Uh, right, I guess I should clarify that there is some other obscure animated movie out there with the same title. Our film this week is a chilling horror movie that asks the question: what if you were abandoned on a ski lift? Join us this week as we find out why if your glove falls off and your hand rests on the safety bar, you really should “let it go”. #frozen #notthedisneyone #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom
Robocop 3: It’s like someone saw a few clips of the original Robocop, and missed all of the good stuff. Robocop 3 is like a wet blanket on a cold day in Detroit. The few people and parts which could have a better purpose are squandered. Tune in this week as we discuss the movie and come up with better ideas for a Robocop sequel. #robocop #podcast #complimentary #cinema #moviereview #filmreview #omstockroom
Norway: Come for the trolls, stay for the fjords! This foreign movie took a real-life subject that we never considered and turned it into a compelling movie. Listen in this week as we dive into a different kind of disaster movie!
Have you ever seen a cannibal, vampire, alien, zombie movie? Now we have! This low budget movie packs a lot of punch in a 75 minute package.
What is happening on the 4th floor, you ask? Certainly nothing unsettling I’m sure! This slow-building tension machine will have you ready to uncoil at any moment. Many of us can relate to having difficult neighbors at some point in our life. Join us and listen this week as we question the line between paranoia and rational fear on Complimentary Cinema!
We can all learn a lot from Jessabelle. You should not be distracted while you drive. If you ever find out that there is a mystery surrounding a death in your family, you should not investigate it. If you have a creepy ghost woman appear in the tub with you, never take a bath again. This southern take on an old-fashioned conjuring kept us interested from start to finish. Listen this week as we dissect the Haitian hoodoo inspired Jessabelle.
Clue is the best board-game-based movie of all time. It’s ensemble cast gives a marathon workshop on how to balance suspense and humor. From start to finish, this movie will keep you guessing: what will happen next? Join us this week as we discuss this cult classic, and find out who killed Mr. Body!
Have you ever heard of a Bolivian Western movie? Now you have! Blackthorn tells the story of an outlaw who has lived out his life in exile and is going on one last adventure to see a long lost relative. This beautiful and well told movie gave us a new appreciation for a different variety of Western. If you like Western movies at all or are interested in giving one a try, this free movie is a great pick!
Should you Be Afraid? Probably not if it involves this movie! This attempt at a mysterious and creepy movie falls flat fairly quickly in the face of poor writing and acting. At least the town it was filmed in looked nice! Join us this week as we laugh and cry our way through a movie where the only thing to fear is wasting some of our precious time!
Trolls! Norway! Our first foreign film perfectly blends traditional Norwegian folklore with modern storytelling. The tale weaves with the landscape, constantly creating the rich world in which our characters live. Join us today for an unusual monster movie that keeps you believing that ancient fantasy beings could really exist.
What can you do when the inhabitants of Mars invade? Kick back and watch a movie so silly and ridiculous that it actually says a lot about America and the absurdity of our lives. Mars Attacks is an action-comedy movie that may not have been fully appreciated in its time, but holds up today as an example of cross-genre movies that use the strengths of each to enhance the final product.
This is a movie so unfunny that we are still waiting for the punchline. Down Periscope defies all expectations by not landing even one joke in its entire runtime. Listen this week as we dissect this movie that squandered its cast and dressing on an awful script that kept us watching in horrified silence.
The Time Machine is about one man’s journey to discover the answer to the one question he is unable to solve: why can’t he change a terrible accident in his past? It is a film that tries to blend sci-fi and fantasy while not quite achieving excellence in either. Join us this week as we take issue with the many flaws in this movie, but also give credit to some great parts as well.
A group of “survivors” finds themselves stuck on an unusual far-away planet after dying on Earth. This strange new place presents challenges that they must overcome to find out what is really going on. Riverworld was a pilot episode for a show that never materialized, now presented as a movie. Survive with us in the river this week on Complimentary Cinema.
The Beyond is a dumpster fire in a lava pit that is actively being nuked. Director “Haz” strikes again as we were tricked into watching another of his crappy sci-fi movies. Join our descent into madness as we try to find new and interesting ways to critique movies that just can’t be fixed.
Ewan McGregor stars in and directs American Pastoral, a film about a man who should have had an easy life, but finds that complications build up during times of turmoil. This drama left us with a lot to talk about as we pondered what life in America really was like in the 50s and 60s.
Arena is the story of a human who tries to fight his place among the fiercest alien fighters in the galaxy at a space station known as the Arena. Join us this week as we take an adventure into a strange, grimy, and violent world of hand to hand combat in space.
In a world where implants record many people's entire lives, professional editors are hired to cut together a re-memory after people die. Robin Williams plays a "fixer" who takes difficult lives and creates a rosy re-memory that removes the ugly parts. Join us this week as we explore an conceptually interesting movie that has trouble logically finishing what it starts.
The Wraith is a movie about racing cars and getting revenge from beyond the grave. It features several actors who are standing in their more successful family members’ shadows. Listen this week as we discuss the film, come up with better storyline material, and laugh about this 80s disaster.
When a home-bound technical writer’s boring life is wearing on his mental state, a young couple moving in next door is the catalyst for trouble in our film this week. The Neighbor is a character study in which actor William Fichtner shows how to say a lot without speaking much. Get creeped out with us as we tackle this slow-building thriller on Complimentary Cinema.
An Oscar-winning romantic comedy on Complimentary Cinema? You bet! Cher and Nicolas Cage star in this tale about life, family, and a big romantic moon. Laugh at the absurdity of life along with us this week.
Cattle rustler Tom Logan and his crew of mischievous thieves take on more than they can handle, regulator Lee Clayton is summoned by a wealthy cattle rancher to deal justice. Unfortunately for us, Lee Clayton turned out to be a completely unhinged, add-libbing Marlon Brando. Somewhere in this seldom remembered, box-office underperforming movie is a thoughtful tale about what makes a person good or bad. Join us as we examine a different kind of western this week on Complimentary Cinema.
When robots malfunction in a retro-futuristic 80’s city, who will save us from destruction? Somehow, the answer is Tom Selleck. With the power of his mustache and an able sidekick, a nefarious plot is discovered to sow destruction and chaos across the city. Join us as we talk about an often overlooked movie this week on Complimentary Cinema.
In a future ruled by CGI and bad, overly philosophical writing, one person and one A.I. must guide a mission to Mars. 2036 Origin Unknown is what happens when you give writing and directing power to a CGI artist who has previously only made short films. There is a 5-10 minute good concept in it that is stretched to a 90 minute movie. Join us as we dissect this dumpster fire on Complimentary Cinema.
When an ancient sea terror of the deep awakens, we are left wondering one important question: can it do tricks like Flipper? On its way to murder countless innocents, the Dinoshark does its best to win over our hearts and minds. Join us as we watch the classic story about a boy, a girl, and a prehistoric killing machine.
In a world full of running, jumping, and general parkour madness, will Ken and Brian be able to maintain sanity? Will their level of exhaustion surpass their wildest dreams? Find out this week on Complimentary Cinema.
