GETTING READY FOR WAKE UP DEAD MAN!! Knives Out Fill Movie Reaction Watch Along: ⁠  / thereelrejects  ⁠ Gift Someone (Or Yourself) A Stranger Things Reject Nation Tee! ⁠https://shorturl.at/hekk2⁠ Knives Out Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review! Andrew Gordon (CinePals) & Tara Erickson dive into Rian Johnson's Knives Out (2019), revisiting Benoit Blanc's iconic introduction before Knives Out 3: Wake Up Dead Man releases. We break down the Thrombey family, the twists, the donut-hole monologue, and Marta's (Ana de Armas — Blonde, No Time To Die, The Gray Man) unforgettable journey. This mystery classic stars Daniel Craig (James Bond, Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Logan Lucky) as Benoit Blanc, Chris Evans (Captain America, Snowpiercer, Scott Pilgrim), Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween, Everything Everywhere All At Once), Michael Shannon (Man of Steel, Bullet Train), Toni Collette (Hereditary, The Sixth Sense), Don Johnson (Miami Vice, Watchmen), Katherine Langford (13 Reasons Why, Cursed), Lakeith Stanfield (Atlanta, Get Out, Sorry to Bother You), and Christopher Plummer (Beginners, The Sound of Music). We revisit the best scenes: the will-reading chaos, Ransom's “eat shit” moment, Blanc piecing together the timeline, Harlan's death twist, and the legendary final shot with Marta holding the mug. With Knives Out 3: Wake Up Dead Man bringing back Daniel Craig plus new cast members like Josh O'Connor (Challengers), Cailee Spaeny (Priscilla, Civil War), Andrew Scott (Sherlock, Ripley), Glenn Close (Fatal Attraction), and Kerry Washington (Scandal), this is the perfect time to reanalyze the murder-mystery masterpiece.

Benoit Blanc is on the case again as he's called to solve a murder at a church in a seemingly-quaint New England hamlet. Josh O'Connor is the local priest, and there are a host of suspects to choose from. Aaron joins us to discuss Wake Up Dead Man. 

Min 5: NUREMBERG (3 estrellas) 'Nuremberg ', dirigida por James Vanderbilt y protagonizada por Rami Malek en la piel del psiquiatra militar Douglas Kelley y Russell Crowe como un inquietante Hermann Göring, plantea un thriller histórico que convierte los juicios más determinantes del siglo XX en un duelo psicológico sostenido más que en un simple repaso académico. Basada en el libro 'El nazi y el psiquiatra', la película se concentra en las entrevistas carcelarias donde Kelley intenta evaluar la salud mental de los acusados mientras descubre que el mal que encarnan no reside en la locura, sino en una mezcla de cálculo, narcisismo y capacidad para manipular. Min 11: PUÑALES POR LA ESPALDA: DE ENTRE LOS MUERTOS (4 estrellas) 'Puñales por la espalda: De entre los muertos', dirigida por Rian Johnson y protagonizada por Daniel Craig como el incombustible Benoit Blanc junto a Josh O'Connor, Cailee Spaeny y Kerry Washington, recupera el espíritu juguetón del whodunit contemporáneo y lo desplaza hacia un terreno más oscuro sin perder la ironía marca de la casa. Johnson arma un misterio que se abre en capas, con una muerte que parece más teatral que real, un elenco de sospechosos que van revelando el tipo de grietas morales que sostienen a los millonarios modernos y un detective que, entre bromas, sigue desentrañando la estupidez humana con la lucidez que lo hizo célebre en las dos entregas anteriores. Min 16: COARTADAS (2,5 estrellas) 'Coartadas', dirigida por Martín Cuervo y protagonizada por Jaime Lorente, Adriana Torrebejano y Leo Harlem, convierte la idea de una empresa especializada en fabricar excusas perfectas en el punto de partida de una comedia de enredo que funciona como retrato ligero, pero reconocible, de la cultura de la mentira cómoda. Cuervo, que se apoya en el modelo de la francesa 'Alibi.com', estira la premisa hasta el límite cuando el dueño de la agencia se enamora de una mujer que detesta a los mentirosos y descubre, demasiado tarde, que el padre de ella es uno de sus clientes más fieles. Min 18: SINGULAR (2,5 estrellas) 'Singular', dirigida por Alberto Gastesi y protagonizada por Patricia López Arnaiz y Javier Rey —con la aparición de Miguel Iriarte como elemento detonante— traza un thriller psicológico con matices de ciencia ficción y drama familiar, en el que la frontera entre la pérdida, la culpa y la esperanza se vuelve difusa. Gastesi plantea una reunión traumática: doce años tras la muerte de su hijo, Diana —especialista en inteligencia artificial— y Martín se ven obligados a volver a su vieja casa junto al lago, un escenario que debería servir para cerrar heridas y acaba convirtiéndose en un territorio de fantasmas emocionales cuando un joven con un inquietante parecido al hijo muerto irrumpe en sus vidas. Min 20: ZOOTRÓPOLIS 2 (3,5 estrellas) 'Zootrópolis 2', dirigida por Byron Howard y Jared Bush y protagonizada en su versión original por Ginnifer Goodwin y Jason Bateman como la agente Judy Hopps y el astuto Nick Wilde, retoma la energía de la primera entrega con un enfoque más ambicioso que mezcla sátira social, buddy movie y un toque de thriller urbano. La secuela desplaza a sus dos protagonistas hacia un caso que desborda lo policial y pone a prueba la frágil convivencia entre especies, un terreno donde la película brilla al combinar humor físico, guiños pop y una lectura adulta sobre el miedo, la desinformación y los prejuicios contemporáneos. Min 24: LA VOZ DE HIND (4,5 estrellas) 'La voz de Hind', dirigida por Kaouther Ben Hania y protagonizada por Saja Kilani junto a Motaz Malhees y Clara Khoury, reconstruye —con una crudeza conmovedora— el último grito de auxilio de una niña de seis años atrapada en Gaza tras un ataque aéreo, utilizando la voz real de la víctima para prolongar su súplica en el tiempo y colocar al espectador ante la evidencia de un horror que muchos prefieren ignorar. Alberto Luchini se deshace en elogios ante la que considera una de esas películas que trascenderá en el tiempo y que considera imprescindible. MIn 28: "BLUE MOON" (3 estrellas) 'Blue Moon', dirigida por Richard Linklater y protagonizada por Ethan Hawke como el letrista atormentado Lorenz Hart, junto a Margaret Qualley, Andrew Scott y Bobby Cannavale, pone sobre la mesa la angustia de un artista que ve su ocaso profesional y emocional justo cuando el mundo celebra a su antiguo colaborador. La película transcurre en una única noche —la del estreno de 'Oklahoma!' en 1943— y convierte un bar de Broadway en un tribunal de musas, ego y desencanto. Min 32: "SOLO PIENSO EN TI". DOCUMENTAL. 3,5 estrellas Auspiciada por CMM y el gobierno de Castilla-La Mancha, 'Solo pienso en ti', dirigida por Hugo de la Riva y centrada en la historia real de María José y Emilio, dos jóvenes con discapacidad intelectual que en los años setenta desafiaron prejuicios familiares, médicos y legales para vivir juntos y formar un proyecto de vida, propone un documental que combina rigor histórico, emoción contenida y una mirada profundamente humana sobre la dignidad y el derecho a amar. El director manchego nos deja un mensaje muy especial para animar el visionado del largometraje. Min 35: "FLORES PARA ANTONIO". (3 estrellas) 'Flores para Antonio', dirigida por Isaki Lacuesta y articulada en torno a la figura del cantante Antonio Flores, reconstruye la trayectoria breve, intensa y frágil de un artista que convirtió su dolor en una voz propia y terminó devorado por la presión familiar, la exigencia pública y sus propios fantasmas. Lacuesta esquiva el biopic convencional y opta por un documental que mezcla material doméstico nunca visto, grabaciones de estudio, diarios, entrevistas actuales con familiares y músicos cercanos, y una puesta en escena que ilumina tanto la energía creativa de Antonio como la sombra emocional que lo acompañó desde joven. Min 40: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON JULIÁN LOMINCHAR En la entrega de hoy nuestro invitado es Julián Lominchar, dibujante y animador toledano que ha vivido un año decisivo tras formar parte del equipo de Robot Dreams y ser admitido (esta misma semana) en la Academia de Cine. Un reconocimiento que confirma su proyección dentro de la animación española. Lominchar habla con la mirada limpia de quien se ha criado entre lápices, papel y sueños posibles, y por eso no sorprende que su elección para La película de tu vida sea el 'Pinocho' de 1940. Min 42: BSO: "DRÁCULA", de Danny Elfman (4 estrellas) La banda sonora de 'Drácula', compuesta por Danny Elfman, es un ejercicio de poderío musical en el que el autor recupera su faceta más gótica y sinfónica para construir un paisaje sonoro que respira deseo, amenaza y tragedia a partes iguales. Elfman articula el score como una sucesión de impulsos emocionales: cuerdas que se retuercen como si fuesen un hilo de sangre, metales que irrumpen con una gravedad casi litúrgica y coros que oscilan entre lo sagrado y lo profano, recordando por momentos la sensualidad oscura de 'Sleepy Hollow' y la teatralidad operística de su etapa más expresionista.

Travis Hopson reviews Rian Johnson's WAKE UP DEAD MAN: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY starring Daniel Craig, Josh O'Connor, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Jeremy Renner, Glenn Close, Cailee Spaeny, Mila Kunis, Daryl McCormack, and Thomas Haden Church.SYNOPSIS: Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) returns for his most dangerous case yet in the third and darkest chapter of Rian Johnson's murder mystery opus. When young priest Jud Duplenticy (Josh O'Connor) is sent to assist charismatic firebrand Monsignor Jefferson Wicks (Josh Brolin), it's clear that all is not well in the pews. Wicks's modest-but-devoted flock includes devout church lady Martha Delacroix (Glenn Close), circumspect groundskeeper Samson Holt (Thomas Haden Church), tightly-wound lawyer Vera Draven, Esq. (Kerry Washington), aspiring politician Cy Draven (Daryl McCormack), town doctor Nat Sharp (Jeremy Renner), best-selling author Lee Ross (Andrew Scott), and concert cellist Simone Vivane (Cailee Spaeny). After a sudden and seemingly impossible murder rocks the town, the lack of an obvious suspect prompts local police chief Geraldine Scott (Mila Kunis) to join forces with renowned detective Benoit Blanc to unravel a mystery that defies all logic.WAKE UP DEAD MAN is in select theaters now,  Netflix on December 12th.All of this and more can be found at www.punchdrunkcritics.com!Subscribe to Punch Drunk Critics on YouTube:    / @punchdrunkcritics1  Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Twitter:   / pdcmovies  Follow Punch Drunk Critics on Facebook:   / pdcmovies  You can also subscribe to our podcast Cinema Royale anywhere you get your podcasts!#WakeUpDeadMan #KnivesOut #rianjohnson

Genre: Abenteuer: In dieser Folge besprechen wir den Film "Der goldene Kompass" aus dem Jahr 2007 und überlegen dabei auch, wie wir eigentlich zu Fantasy-Filmen stehen. Wir reden darüber, ob man sich bei diesem Genre besonders auf fremde Welten und neue Konzepte einlassen muss. Außerdem sprechen wir über Nicole Kidman und Daniel Craig, die oft als Hauptrollen genannt werden, deren Auftritte im Film aber doch etwas anders wirken, als man vielleicht erwarten würde. Ein großes Thema ist auch das CGI, das im Film stark eingesetzt wird und wir teilen unsere Eindrücke, wie es auf uns wirkt. Zum Schluss schauen wir darauf, dass die Handlung manchmal ein wenig durcheinander erscheint und diskutieren, was eigentlich das Ziel der Geschichte ist und wie klar dieses Ziel im Film vermittelt wird.

¡Qué casualidad!

Seven new films, a new record for the show, with highlights chats with Emma Thompson and Daniel Craig. 

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we talk about someone who played Bond, James Bond, and Blanc, Benoit Blanc. It's Daniel Craig! Our returning guest is the great Gavin Mevius, co-host of both The Mixed Reviews Podcast and The Q Division on Glitterjaw. Our B-Sides today include The Mother, Enduring Love, The Golden Compass, and Cowboys & Aliens. We also spend some time on The Invasion. We remember the controversy of Craig's being blonde and being cast as Bond (silly!), as well as the early roles he took on before our B-Sides. There's conversation on the films of Roger Michell and if he really is some version of Mike Leigh lite. There's also an earnest debate about which film is worse: The Golden Compass or Cowboys & Aliens? Mild shock takes hold as we three recall both that HBO did in fact make FULL THREE SEASONS of His Dark Materials (!) and the somewhat disingenuous, cash-grabby way Cowboys & Aliens came to be.

This is our spoiler-free review for Wake Up Dead Man, the latest entry in Rian Johnson's Knives Out series. We break down the film's striking gothic look and feel — from Steve Yedlin's atmospheric cinematography to the way light shapes the story — and talk through the performances, including Daniel Craig's ever-magnetic return as Benoit Blanc.We also get into how the film's familiar narrative structure affects the mystery this time around, why the ensemble's character dynamics feel looser, and how the story doesn't quite hit the same heights as the original. Finally, we share our overall thoughts and ratings, celebrating what the movie gets right while digging into where it falls short and what this franchise needs to evolve moving forward.Catch Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery in select theatres starting November 26, and stream it globally on Netflix December 12.

Rian Johnson & Daniel Craig have returned to deliver us their third Knives Out Mystery. Wake Up Dead Man has now dropped in select theaters worldwide, and will drop on Netflix on December 12. I'm very lucky to be ten minutes away from a local cinema that plays all of Netflix's releases before they drop on the platform, so you bet I rushed out to see the new whodunnit on the first day of release. The first Knives Out is easily my favorite murder-mystery of all-time, and Glass Onion was definitely a really solid follow-up even if it was a little uneven. More importantly though, I think Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig, has to be on the Mount Rushmore of most iconic new movie characters of the past decade; in fact, I think Craig is so good in the role that Blanc is now dangerously close to overtaking Bond as his most iconic character. I know, I know... sue me. Rian Johnson is also one of my favorite filmmakers and he never misses! So, is Wake Up Dead Man the most engrossing mystery the team have delivered yet? Find out in this review!Wake Up Dead Man:Written and Directed by: Rian JohnsonProduced by: Ram Bergman, Rian JohnsonExecutive Producer: Tom KarnowskiMusic by: Nathan JohnsonDirector of Photography: Steve YedlinEdited by: Bob DucsayCasting by: Bret Howe, Mary VernieuProduction Design by: Rick HeinrichsCostume Design by: Jenny EaganCast: Daniel Craig, Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, Jeremy Renner, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Cailee Spaeny, Daryl McCormack, Thomas Haden ChurchSynopsis: When young priest Jud Duplenticy is sent to assist charismatic firebrand Monsignor Jefferson Wicks, it's clear that all is not well in the pews. After a sudden and seemingly impossible murder rocks the town, the lack of an obvious suspect prompts local police chief Geraldine Scott to join forces with renowned detective Benoit Blanc to unravel a mystery that defies all logic.

If you cook the bird, we'll bring the sides for you on this Thanksgiving Week episode of Breakfast All Day. Here are the big movies coming out that we reviewed: WAKE UP DEAD MAN. The third movie in Rian Johnson's "Knives Out" series has more on its mind than its predecessors. But the latest murder mystery is just as fun in its twists and turns, and it features yet another delightful performance from Daniel Craig as Detective Benoit Blanc. This is a non-spoiler review, because as always, the less you know the better. In select theaters Nov. 26 before streaming on Netflix Dec. 12. HAMNET. A major awards contender with a ton of hype, but our review isn't quite so fawning. Director and co-writer Chloé Zhao's film is inspired by the true story of William Shakespeare and his wife as they deal with the devastation of losing their son, Hamnet, at age 11. Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley co-star. In select theaters Nov. 26 before expanding Dec. 5. REBUILDING. It's Josh O'Connor Week (he's also in "Wake Up Dead Man"), which is just fine with us. Here he stars as a cowboy struggling to put his life back together after a wildfire ravages his Colorado ranch. This is a quietly moving indie gem that we both loved. Lily LaTorre is excellent as his young daughter.

Today on the 5: Having acquired the James Bond franchise, there are reports that Amazon Studios are struggling with how to continue the series following the death of Daniel Craig's take on the character. I'm baffled by this, because if these reports are true it assumes that James Bond being the same person throughout the series actually matters or makes any sense.

Daniel Craig is finally here! Join us as we kick off the beginning of the gritty Bond era.

NO TIME TO DIE shocked audiences around the globe by doing what no Bond movie had ever dared to do — killing James Bond. After decades of near-death escapes, 007 finally met his end in Daniel Craig's last outing as the iconic British spy. But was it the bold, emotional conclusion the franchise needed, or an unforgivable betrayal of everything James Bond stands for? Now that the shock value has worn off, it's time to reexamine this.  Was it bold storytelling, betrayal, or a cop out? In this episode of Cracking the Code of Spy Movies from SpyMovieNavigator.com, hosts Dan and Tom are joined by passionate Bond experts from across the globe: Morgan Lisney (Canada), Pietro Rossi (UK), Bill Kanas, and Stuart Bassinger (US). They debate one of the most controversial endings in movie history. Together, they dive deep into No Time to Die's themes, story arcs, plot holes, production decisions, and what Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson might have been thinking when they agreed to end Bond's story. From discussions about Bond's legacy, Daniel Craig's arc, and Amazon's takeover of the franchise, to speculation about the future of 007, this episode explores every angle. Was Bond's death a creative risk that gave the series emotional weight, or did it destroy the fantasy that made audiences fall in love with the character for over 60 years? We also examine how the Craig era compares to classic Bond films, from Casino Royale to Skyfall, and whether the next generation of filmmakers should reboot, revive, or completely reinvent 007.

“Spy Bits: The James Bond Gun Barrel Sequence” is a sharp, focused deep dive into the James Bond gun barrel sequence. And it is brought to you by Cracking the Code of Spy Movies. Dan and Tom trace the sequence's origin with Maurice Binder. They then look at its evolution from pinhole-camera shots and optical compositing to CGI, and how each Bond actor reshaped the pose, timing, and tone. The episode explains the visual language—Bond as hunter, not hunted. Similarly, we dive into the technical design of rifled barrels and blood effects, and how the sequence functions as one of cinema's most enduring brand signatures. What you'll find History: From DR. NO (1962) through GOLDENEYE, DIE ANOTHER DAY, and the Daniel Craig era. We note key changes and why the sequence was reshot for new actors. Technical notes: Early in-camera methods, later CGI, and the use of photographed rifling, optical overlays, and painted blood effects. Actor variations: Connery, Lazenby, Moore, Dalton, Brosnan, Craig—how stance, timing, and color shifted with each era. Themes and trivia: Identity, mortality, continuity, music cues, hidden details like Bob Simmons' stunt work, rifling quirks, and the first omission of blood in No Time to Die.

Gaelynn Lea is a violinist, singer-songwriter, disability rights advocate, author, and public speaker. Born with osteogenesis imperfecta, Gaelynn began her musical journey with the support of a childhood music teacher and her musical family. You'll hear about how her big break happened when she won NPR Music's Tiny Desk Contest in 2016, which led to a fascinating creative life which in the last few years has included international touring and scoring Macbeth on Broadway, starring Daniel Craig and Ruth Negga. Gaelynn is really open to trying new things, and this really came through as she talked to me about how she'll never have enough time to explore all her curiosities, reflections on her first compositions and songs, how she collaborated with mentors Alan Sparhawk, and Charlie Parr, and how she created a new musical fable for the stage called Invisible Fences with disabled storyteller Kevin Kling. You'll be hearing clips from some of Gaelynn's albums during the podcast, and her Bandcamp is linked in the show notes for you. We begin with a look at her upcoming memoir—It Wasn't Meant to Be Perfect— a warm, funny and deeply-felt exploration of disability, music, and the messy creativity of an artist's life. I plan to welcome Gaelynn back for a future episode focused on that work. You can find the pre-order link in the show notes.

On Oct. 14, 2005, the casting of Daniel Craig as James Bond was announced. To date, that was the last time a cinematic Bond was announced.

Alex and James briefly turn their attention away from James Bond to discuss the adventures of Ethan Hunt.  We take a look at the Mission: Impossible series, how it evolved over the course of eight films, as well as its strengths and weaknesses. Plus, keeping things on topic, we attempt to answer whether Tom Cruise's stunt-filled outings serve as a suitable alternative to Bond for classic fans who weren't won over by Daniel Craig's grittier, more grounded films. We'd love to hear your thoughts on Mission: Impossible vs James Bond, so please email us via bondandbeyondpod@gmail.com.

Recorded July 18, 2025 at the Old Fire Station Theatre - Oxford, UK “I do think, every time you need to sing the title!” - Steve on Bond theme songs On this week's Summer Live episode, it's our piping-hot pod straight out of Oxford all about the second Daniel Craig Bond film, Quantum of Solace! Why did they think they needed to chase the Jason Bourne movies, thus altering the very DNA of this franchise? Why is this movie so far up Casino Royale's ass? Why couldn't Mathieu Amalric get a dang parlor scene? And couldn't they have thought of a more exciting villain lair than an empty hotel in the middle of the desert? PLUS: M's boyfriend has some snack requests!  Quantum of Solace stars Daniel Craig, Olga Kurylenko, Mathieu Amalric, Giancarlo Giannini, Gemma Arterton, Jeffrey Wright, David Harbour, Jesper Christensen, Anatole Taubman, Rory Kinnear, and Dame Judi Dench as M; directed by Marc Forster.
