Movie Night with John and Sean

For episode 86 the boys are back in the studio to review the directorial debut of Drew Hancock, Companion. A new kind of love story. A commentary on artificial intelligence, robotics and the inevitable complications that arise from dependence on these kinds of technologies. This one is a blast from start to finish. Black comedy? Sci-fi dystopian warning? Horror classic? Maybe Companion is all of these things rolled into one. We can't recommend this movie enough.

For episode 85 the boys are back in the studio to review Robert Eggers latest, Nosferatu, and James Mangold's Bob Dylan biopic starring Timothee Chalemet, A Complete Unknown; lovingly referred to in this episode as A Complete UnkNosferatu.

For episode 84, the boys are back in the studio to review the directorial debut of SNL writer and cast member, Kyle Mooney. Y2K is a tale as old as time; if time were only 24 years old. A coming of age romance about two young people from different worlds who have to work together to bring down the machines that have begun killing their friends and family members. The singularity. The creature design. A mind blowing cameo. What's not to love? We highly recommend this one. Peep the pod for our full review. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what we should review next.

For episode 83, the boys are back at the new studio to review the latest entry into the Alien franchise, Alien: Romulus. What can be said about Alien and Aliens that hasn't been discussed at lengthy conversations regarding the all time greats? How does this entry restore the faith of the fans in the studio's ability to produce a quality sequel? Fede Alvarez grounds the latest film in a gritty world that seems to fit perfectly alongside the original two but unfortunately, he begins to ring the same old bells we've heard time and time again. What did y'all think of this one? Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what we should review next.

For episode 82, the boys are back in the studio with good friend of the show, Jeremy Curry, to review the directorial debut of Dev Patel, Monkey Man. Sean and John get into a heated debate regarding the unique merit of the film and whether it qualifies for instant cult classic status. With Jordan Peele producing this Netflix shelved project and bringing it to life, John expected more but Sean feels that Monkey Man delivers in droves. What do you think? Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, let us know who you think won the debate and what we should review next.

For episode 81 the boys are back in the studio after a lengthy hiatus to review the second entry into Denis Villeneuve's Dune saga, Dune: Part Two. Cinematography, direction, cast, epic war sequences and masterful character development, this movie has it all and delivers one of the finest films in recent memory over the course of it's near three hour run time. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review if you're enjoying the pod and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 80 the boys are back in the studio with a returning special guest to the show, Louis Scott, to review the latest entry into the Conjuring universe; The Nun II. Along the way we talk shop about the recent Vulture expose on the pay for play scheme involving Rotten Tomatoes and how the greater culture around movie reviews is easily co-opted by producers and film houses looking to make a quick buck by boosting ticket sales with padded review numbers. What does all of that mean for a movie like the Nun II? How did this movie make it past a writer's room? The editing room? How did a movie this bad make it to theaters? One potential answer seems troubling. Film studios and movie producers don't actually care about the quality of their films but only the return on their investment. All of this and more on the latest episode of Movie Night. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 79 the boys are back in the studio with special guest Andres Soler to review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem as well as TMNT (1990) and TMNT II: Secret of the Ooze (1991). Which film is best? What do the turtles mean to us as individuals and the greater culture? What is it about the turtles that makes them so uniquely immune to time and discoverable for generation after generation of new fans? Peep the pod for all of this and more. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 78 the boys are back in the studio to review Christopher Nolan's latest, and marked return to form, Oppenheimer and Juel Taylor's directorial debut, They Cloned Tyrone. Does Cillian Murphy deliver the performance of a lifetime? Has Christopher Nolan finally balanced his love of non-linear storytelling with a clearly understandable narrative? Does They Cloned Tyrone mark an arrival for a new and talented voice in cinema? All of this and more on this episode of Movie Night.

After a several month long hiatus, the boys are back and in the studio to review Asteroid City; the latest from visionary director Wes Anderson. Next the boys dig into the latest from freshly crowned prince of modern horror, Ari Aster, Beau Is Afraid. Has Anderson favored style over substance with his latest film? Is Beau Is Afraid a nightmare for all involved? All of this and more on the latest episode of Movie Night Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, let us know what you think we should review next and leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show.

Oh, to remember Scream. The tongue in cheek self awareness. The revival of a certain kind of slasher. The thrill of a sequel which rivaled or even exceeded the quality of the original. Fast forward to 2023. 27 years later. What remains is a hollow shell of a once exceptional vessel. A few of the characters from that fond original still remain; despite decades of attempted murder by a who's who of Ghostfaces. Other than that though, there's not much that ties Scream 6 to Wes Craven's beautiful beginning's in Scream (1996.) As we dive into the latest entry into the Scream franchise we talk all this and more. What is it about Scream 1 and 2 that set them so distinctly apart from unremarkable horror of their time? What did Scream 6 get right? Is the star power of the new leads enough to carry this franchise into new territory? This is a lot to unpack. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 75 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest film from the sometimes great, always polarizing, M. Night Shyamalan. A Knock At The Cabin marks a kind of return to form for Shyamalan who develops his signature tension through a seemingly refreshed, more focused cinematic lens. Is Shyamalan the greatest living troll of modern filmmaking? Obviously he's aware of the polarizing nature of his films. Is there intent there or are some of his ideas simply too large to execute well? Strap in as we discuss the state of modern cinema, super hero fatigue, BJ Novak's 2022 directorial debut in Vengeance and more. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 74 the boys are back in the studio to review Branden Cronenberg's latest feature, Infinity Pool. We're also trying something a little new for this episode and reviewing two films that we each saw individually. Sean gives us his hot take on the shockingly low budget horror returns of Skinamarink and John reviews the latest tour de force performance by Cate Blanchett in TÁR. Along the way we talk shop on how horror is uniquely suited for stranger explorations like that of Cronenberg's Successor and Infinity Pool. Is it in the name? CRONENBERG. Recognizable. Pedigreed. Is it in the approach? We get into all of this and more. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 73 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest from Rian Johnson; the sequel to his modern mystery classic, Knives Out, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery and Darren Aronofsky's latest, The Whale which marks a triumphant return of beloved actor, Brenden Fraser. Along the way we talk shop on Rian Johnson's disastrous direction in Star Wars: The Last Jedi and his otherwise impeccable filmography, Aronofsky's unique ability to create vehicles for long forgotten actors, and what the future looks like for the cinematic landscape and theater attendance. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcast's if you enjoy the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 72 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest from beloved master filmmaker, Guillermo Del Toro, Pinnochio. Along the way we talk about the magic of stop motion animation, the monumental undertaking and team required to produce a film of this scale and how daftly Del Toro is able to craft something original and truly unique to him out of such a well known and old story. What is it about the Pinnochio tale that draws filmmakers like Del Toro, Spielberg and Kubrick to direct their own versions of this story? Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 71 the boys are back in the studio to review Roku's new Al Yankovic biopic (how does one properly pronounce this word?), Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. Along the way we talk Weird Al's sizable cultural imprint, the effect Weird Al had on us as kids and the legacy his comedy and music has left behind across what seems like all age groups and demographics. Daniel Radcliffe delivers the goods. The insanity is turned up to 11. While at times derivative, Weird still proves worthwhile. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 70 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest entry into the David Gordon Green Halloween trilogy, Halloween Ends. And boy do we hope it does. After some 13 films I think we can safely say we have reached critical mass. What more can be said about Michael Myers? Apparently, not much. In what will surely disappoint fans of the franchise Gordon Green elects to give Michael a whimpering send off. Somehow though, the film has already doubled its budget in box office returns and we talk shop on what it is about Halloween that has made it such a cultural mainstay, why a trilogy of Halloween films is basically never a good idea and whether the sleek production and videography of Halloween Ends favors the movie or if the analog film grain and texture of film is better suited for this kind of horror. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 69 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest from Ti West and his second film in a year, Pearl. Pearl is a prequel to West's already widely lauded, X. Mia Goth reprises her role as a young Pearl and takes a star turn; all while also executive producing, co-writing and anchoring this future cult classic (we're calling it now.) TI West's stellar use of color, music and imagery call back to a simpler time in Hollywood. But underneath the sweet score and iconic imagery, West and Goth lay out a story of isolated desperation, loneliness, the need to be loved, the uncertainty of it all.  This movie asks the great existential questions that we wrestle with about once a week. What am I really doing? Do I matter? Are we meant for more than this present circumstance? At the end of the film, I'm not anymore sure myself about any of these lasting questions. But man, does it make an impression.  Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

Spoiler alert! Spoilers ahead. The boys are back in the studio to review Zach Cregger's sophomore feature film effort, Barbarian. What is it about the horror genre that allows for such distinct creativity and originality? Is it any coincidence that directors like Jordan Peele, Ari Aster and Robert Eggers have chosen the genre to debut new and interesting ideas? Is horror unique in its ability to produce excellent films with little to no budget? We talk shop on all this and more as we review this masterclass in misdirection and a truly unique cinematic experience in Barbarian. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

After a lengthy hiatus the Movie Night boys are back in the studio to review two modern horror breakout, Scott Derrickson's The Black Phone and the third installment into Jordan Peele's already storied filmography, Nope. For two movies with a nearly identical critical consensus, audience reception varies significantly. What is it about traditional horror concepts like those from The Black Phone that seem to win audiences over in a way where less traditional approaches like Nope seem to split down the middle and polarize? Along the way we talk shop on supernatural elements in horror movies, sci fi, Jordan Peele's already significant impact throughout the industry and more. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 63 the boys are back in the studio to review the triumphant return of Robert Eggers and his latest film, "The Northman." Along the way we talk shop on Eggers period specific philosophy on filmmaking, the style and tone he's distinctly crafted over the course of his three films and the shame of such an epic and beautiful film flopping at the box office. What does that mean for the future of Eggers and his bankability as an income generating filmmaker? Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 62 the boys are back in the studio to review the latest from one of our favorite production houses working right now, A24's X, and the latest entry into the Marvel cinematic universe, Morbius. One was excellent; the other, not so much. Can you guess which one we hated? Along the way we talk shop on the magic of movie makeup, tasteful homages, the current dreadful over-dependence on CGI and if movie stars will be relevant or exist at all once AI is sophisticated enough to generate our ideal leading character. Lastly, what is it about Jared Leto that seems to make him immune to social reckoning? That's a lot to unpack. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts if you're enjoying the show and let us know what you think we should review next.

What more can be said about Batman? We've followed this character through more 5 decades of television and film appearances. We've endured Val Kilmer Batman. George Clooney Batman. We've seen Batman reduced to side story slop among the very worst of DC's spotty filmography with Ben Affleck Batman. Actually to be honest we didn't see those. But still. Despite all of this, we've often been rewarded by visionary filmmakers like Tim Burton, Christopher Nolan and now Matt Reeves. The boys are back in the studio for Episode 61 to dive into all of this and discuss why Matt Reeves' "The Batman" ranks among the very best in the Batman filmography (minus of course those we don't speak of, Ben Affleck Batman.) Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, actually Sean didn't even drink this time he just had water and I had one Modelo, leave us a 5 star review on Apple Pods and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 60 the boys are back in the studio with two new movie night reviews. We start off discussing the truly disappointing revival of a once great concept by the Wachowski Sisters, The Matrix. For Resurrections only one filmmaker returns and what a rambling mess of a return it is. Neo's back. Trinity too. There's a new Morpheus and somehow the visual effects are the Wachowski's worst yet. How? Why? Don't ask us. We literally have no idea what this movie is about. And finally a movie we did enjoy; the latest from Adam McKay, not-so absurdist disaster comedy, Don't Look Up. Along the way we discuss the landmark visionary arrival of the original Matrix, it's lasting cultural impact and how critics could possibly explain the positive reviews for Ressurections and justify the mediocre response to Don't Look Up. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave a review on Apple Podcasts and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 59 the boys are back in the studio to review what feels like a rare treat, a standalone horror film in 2021. Antlers is the latest film from acclaimed director of Crazy Heart, Black Mass and Hostiles, Scott Cooper.  Despite a near evenly split critical response to the film, we both found the film to be entertaining, thoroughly well acted and captivating for the entirety of its hour and 39 minute run time. Great setup and lore. Check. Great practicals. Check. Minimal but effective CGI. Check. Are critics reviewing this film more harshly because of the excellence of some of Scooper's prior work? Do they feel the horror genre is just out of his depth? To be honest we just don't understand the negative response to this movie and we're v curious for your thoughts on this one. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 58 the boys are back in the studio to review the brilliant reimagining of Frank Herbert's legendary science fiction epic, Dune, and the latest disastrous entry into the Halloween franchise, Halloween Kills. Along the way we talk shop on the film that never was in Jodorosky's Dune, David Lynch's blundered attempt at Dune (1984) and how Michael Myers now exists beyond all bounds of reality and the structure of any decent or otherwise watchable film. One thing is certain. Villeneuve has succeeded where greats have tried and failed before him and created one of 2021's greatest achievements in film; giving us all a reason to get back to the movie theater. Actually two more things are in fact certain. Evil does not die tonight Halloween Kills sucksss. Peep the pod for our full review on both films. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for these films in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 57 the boys are back in the studio and again joined by long time friend of the show and special returning guest, Frank Manzano, to review the latest A24 release and Icelandic directorial debut from Valdimar Johannsson, Lamb. Along the way we talk shop on the laundry list of production houses involved in the film's inception, A24's pedigree and proven track record for quality films and how trailers shape our expectations and reactions to film. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 56 the boys are back in the studio and joined by long time friend of the show and returning guest, Frank Manzano, to review the latest entry in the Venom franchise, Venom: Let There Be Carnage. Along the way we talk shop on the ongoing struggle between Sony and Marvel for ownership rights of the Venom film property and how these ownership constraints affect the quality of these films. The cast is deep. The performances are not. How were so many talented people convinced to participate in this blunder? And of course the greatest question of all, who is Venom: Let There Be Carnage for??? Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your reviews for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 54 the boys are back in the studio to review an ahead of its time horror classic. Candyman (1992), and it's near 30 year separate sequel and Jordan Peele production, Nia DaCosta's Candyman (2021). Along the way we talk shop on how exceedingly rare quality horror sequels have been historically and beg the question, has there ever been a horror sequel to meet or exceed the quality of an original? Maybe Scream 2? Candyman (2021) walks a fine line and is often brilliant, funny and genuinely inspired. Is it as good as the original??? Peep the pod and our full review to find out. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for these films in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 53 the boys are back in the studio and reviewing the latest addition to M. Night Shyamalan's scattered filmography, Old, and the epic reimagining of The Green Knight from our favorite arthouse production company, A24. Listener beware, these two films could NOT be more different.

For episode 52 the boys are back in the studio and joined by longtime friend of the show, Kris Handoyo, to review the latest entry in the Fast and The Furious franchise; Fast 9 The Fast Saga. Have the films completely left reality behind? Yes. Is this bad boy worth watching at all? Peep the full pod and our review to find out. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your reviews for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 51 the boys are back in the studio and joined by a special guest and long time friend of the show, Louis Scott, to review the latest installment in the Conjuring franchise, The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It. Well, that's certainly how it feels because a man possessed must have tried to put this piece of shit together. Peep for our thoughts on the ever expanding Conjuring multiverse and its similarly disappointing surrounding films.

For episode 50 the boys are back in the studio to review the ninth entry into the Saw franchise, Spiral: From The Book of Saw. Along the way we talk shop on the lasting impact of Saw (2004), what the original film's creators get right and what the newest film gets so wrong. Are horror sequels unavoidably more brutal or has the Saw franchise simply outlived its usefulness and become reliant on the "let's play a game" scenarios that were once so cutting edge?

For episode 49 the boys are back in the studio to review the recent Mortal Kombat relaunch as well as the 1995 original and disastrous Mortal Kombat Annihilation sequel. Along the way we talk shop on the MK global phenomenon and what the series and video games mean to adoring fans the world over. Is it the ultra violence? Is it the characters? We know it can't be the narrative. Peep for our thoughts on these films and why we continue to follow the franchise. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your reviews for these films in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 48 the boys are back in the studio to review Bad Trip; a new Netflix original starring Eric Andre, Lil Rel Howery and Tiffany Haddish. Where Sacha Baron Cohen's prank centered films often hilariously expose the darkest fringes of our society, Bad Trip shows heart, caring and humor aren't altogether absent from modern life. The pranks are insane, the story is simple and the execution is dialed. Peep for our thoughts on why Bad Trip is actually a great and wild ride. Along the way we eulogize our dearly departed monument to cinema and Houston landmark, the River Oaks Theater. Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.

For episode 47 the boys are back in the studio and joined by very special and returning guests, Jamal and Jeremy to review the towering comedy landmark of Coming To America and its recent Amazon produced sequel, Coming 2 America. How does the unique comedic theatrical experience and its unfortunate lacking in the time of covid shape our response to the new film? Can Eddy Murphy follow up an R rated comedy classic with a PG13 sequel? IDK but we're about to find out.

TW! For episode 45 the boys are back in the studio to review an uncompromising and bold directorial debut from Emerald Fennell, Promising Young Woman. Although deeply cast, well acted and thoroughly original, this was still a challenging film to review; one that forced a broader and more uncomfortable conversation about rape, violence against women and the greater complicity that allows these assaults to happen and continue. Along the way we talk about the theatrical experience in the time of Covid, the decline of the movie theater business and the recent surprise fortune for AMC's stock value. SO! All easy topics tonight. In all seriousness, I'm really glad we did this and think this may be an even more impactful film than I might have originally given it credit for. Carrey Mulligan is excellent. Bo Burnham delivers. The ensemble is wide and effective. Promising Young Woman is devastating but worth the watch. Trigger Warning: this movie depicts sexual assault, violence against women and frequent abuse.

For episode 44 the boys are back in the studio for a Happy Holidaze special edition of Movie Night and joined by a v special guest, my brother Philip.
