Denis Villeneuve's film 'Sicario' remains a vital and prescient glimpse into extra-judicial Governmental activities and the blurring of lines on both sides of the drug war, all brilliantly rendered by top-notch cinematography from Roger Deakins and a host of career-best performances from actors like Emily Blunt, James Brolin, Daniel Kaluuya, and, especially, Benicio Del Toro.  Harrowing, procedural, understated, and complicated, the film unfolds with confidence in the journey it takes viewers on, with a refreshing lack of hand-holding and over-explanation. 

Happy New Year and welcome to Fan Jan! Every January here on @wedrinkandwewatchthings, we hand the steering wheel over to you and spend the month covering the films you've been begging us to talk about. We're kicking off the year with a heavy hitter that's been high on the request list: Denis Villeneuve's 2015 desert-noir masterpiece, "Sicario." Pour yourself something strong - maybe our Night Vision Negroni - because we're headed to the border for a thriller that refuses to give easy answers.This week, we explore the moral vacuum of the drug war through the eyes of Emily Blunt's Kate Macer, an idealistic agent who quickly realizes she's a pawn in a much darker game. We examine the terrifying, quiet intensity of Benicio del Toro's Alejandro and the casual, "flip-flop" cynicism of Josh Brolin's Matt Graver. Beyond the acting, we marvel at Roger Deakins' breathtaking cinematography - specifically those haunting sunset silhouettes and the night-vision tension of the tunnel raid - and delve into Jóhann Jóhannsson's pulse-pounding score that makes every frame feel like a ticking time bomb.If you love thrillers that prioritize atmosphere over easy victories, or if you've been one of the many fans asking us to finally tackle Taylor Sheridan's "Neo-Western" world, this is the episode for you. We're mixing our respect for the film's brutal precision with our usual casual banter, making this a high-octane start to our fan-led month.

There were two girls over there. They didn't know each other, but they were in there, each [of their] mothers had committed suicide.

AND FINALLYHollywood's Biggest Faceplants: The 10 Most Disappointing Flops of 20252025 had its hits, but let's be honest—it was also a year where some massive blockbusters crashed and burned. From superhero fatigue to Oscar-bait that nobody bit on, here's a look at the ten movies that just couldn't get audiences into seats this year. 1. Thunderboltsa. Marvel is definitely feeling the pain. While this movie made nearly $400 million, that's peanuts compared to the glory days of Avengers: Endgame. It suffered from the same problem as Captain America: Brave New World: it just felt like reheated leftovers from a saga that ended years ago. Aside from Superman, it looks like superhero fatigue has officially set in. 1. Snow Whitea. This was the exception to the rule that Disney remakes print money. It didn't even make back its budget. The movie had an identity crisis—trying to be both a classic recreation and a subversive twist—but the real killer was the PR nightmare. Between the casting controversies and political debates, the movie was "covered in mud" before it even hit theaters. 1. Mickey 17a. Everyone was dying to see what director Bong Joon Ho would do after Parasite. The problem? We waited too long. After endless delays, the hype died. When it finally dropped in February, reviews called it "toothless" and confused. Even Robert Pattinson couldn't save this sci-fi epic from being a disappointment. 1. After the Hunta. You'd think Julia Roberts and the director of Call Me by Your Name would be a slam dunk. Nope. It made less than $10 million globally (which is like, half of Roberts' salary). The movie was too long, too rambling, and felt more like a streaming series than a cinema event. 1. Christya. Sydney Sweeney is everywhere, but apparently, that doesn't guarantee box office sales. Her boxing biopic had one of the worst opening weekends ever for a wide release. It seems social media fame doesn't always translate to ticket sales. Sweeney defended it, saying she made it for "impact," not numbers, which is good, because the numbers were bad. 1. I Know What You Did Last Summera. Studios thought they could pull a Scream with this 90s revival. The issue? People actually love Scream. Nobody really cares about "The Fisherman" or the original 1997 film enough to show up for a legacy sequel. 1. Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowherea. Jeremy Allen White played The Boss, but audiences didn't show up. Why? Because the movie focused on a depressing, quiet period of Bruce Springsteen's life where he moped around a bedroom recording acoustic tracks. People wanted the stadium anthems and energy, not the gloom. 1. Elio a. Pixar had a huge win with Inside Out 2, but Elio brought them back down to earth. The original director left mid-production, and the final product felt like a movie with no reason to exist. It was hard to explain the plot, and audiences just didn't connect with the aliens. 1. M3GAN 2.0a. The first M3GAN was a viral hit because it was campy, slasher fun. The sequel failed because it tried to pivot into a sprawling, geopolitical action thriller. The producers admitted they overthought it—they should have just given the people more of the killer doll they loved. 1. The Smashing Machinea. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson really wants an Oscar. He teamed up with Emily Blunt and an indie director for this gritty MMA drama. But here's the thing: nobody goes to a Rock movie to be depressed. It was a bleak story about addiction, and audiences preferred to stay home.

Writer/Director/Actor/Editor Benny Safdie is known for defying expectations and using his sense of humor to make a splash. He even once showed up on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon dressed all in silver, including painted silver hair and skin. So when we sat down with Safdie over Zoom to talk about his latest movie The Smashing Machine, we weren't sure what to expect. For this interview, however, there was no face paint or sparkly clothes, he was simply wearing a shirt that said, "Radical Empathy." Turns out there's a very important reason for the shirt. "Empathy should be cool, you know?" says Safdie. "And for this movie, I want to put you in the mind of somebody who looks invincible and you're going to feel their pain. You're going to feel what it's like to be them. You're going to be connected to them when you go in the ring. If you could be empathetic on such a deep level, where their feelings and emotions become your own, that's radical. That's a radical form of empathy. And that's what I was trying to do with the movie." Given what Safdie says, it's no secret that all great writing starts with radical empathy.  On this episode of the podcast, we chat with him about his film The Smashing Machine starring Dwayne Johnson as UFC star Mark Kerr and Emily Blunt as his romantic partner Dawn.  Safdie talks about his personal connection to boxing and MMA, why a narrative film can tell a much deeper story than a documentary, and the highly charged fighting between Mark and Dawn that took place out of the ring, and why they ultimately couldn't make their relationship work.  To learn more, listen to the podcast.   

"The Smashing Machine" is a biographical sports drama film written, directed, produced, and edited by Benny Safdie, starring Golden Globe nominee Dwayne Johnson as former amateur wrestler and MMA fighter Mark Kerr, alongside Academy Award nominee Emily Blunt as Kerr's girlfriend Dawn Staples. The film had its world premiere in the main competition of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Lion and received positive reviews for the performances, notably for Johnson's transformational work, brought to life by multi Academy Award-winning prosthetics designer Kazu Hiro. Johnson, Blunt, and Hiro were all kind enough to spend some time speaking with me, Cody Dericks, and Dan Bayer, respectively, about their work and experiences making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to rent or own digitally from A24 and is up for your consideration in all eligible categories for this year's Academy Awards.

The thing about machines is that we expect them to keep chugging on – to never break or falter. In the late 1990s, a mixed martial artist named Mark Kerr found himself struggling to shoulder the weight of that expectation. Mark was a winner – a muscular behemoth beloved by fans of a rising new fighting league, called Ultimate Fighting Championship, or UFC for short. His fans across the world knew little of his agonising behind-the-scenes struggle to keep up that facade, to keep entering the ring week after week, to keep The Smashing Machine as he was nicknamed chugging along – never breaking, never faltering. Addicted to powerful painkillers, the pressure to win was killing him.Which is why The Smashing Machine, the recent biopic about Kerr, from my guest today, writer-director Benny Safdie, is a sports movie unlike most others. Think of a sports movie you love. Break it down at its core and I bet you, it's a tale about someone learning to win, right? Starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, The Smashing Machine is about someone learning to lose. The liberation that comes with it. The power of realising that we're not our accomplishments. What defines us is our actions out of the wrestling ring – whatever your version of that ring may be. On today's episode, Benny tells me about the quote, “radical empathy” that guided this story – and how it was also perhaps present in his work up till now. Films and TV shows like the hugely acclaimed Good Time and Uncut Gems, both created with his brother Josh – and The Curse, created with Nathan Fielder. We get into all the key beats and scenes from The Smashing Machine in our usual spoiler-filled detail – including that mesmerising ending in which Dwayne Johnson seems to unburden himself of the expectation that he can never falter, not just within his performance of Mark Kerr, but also kind of as himself, this megawatt blockbuster star whose recent career took an interesting path to this story, filling it with metatextual meaning.

Bienvenidos, cinéfilos hierberos, a un nuevo episodio de Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas, cine, televisión, música y videojuegos para escuchar.Hoy, continuamos con nuestro ciclo dedicado al gran Aaron Sorkin –ese maestro del diálogo afilado que nos hace creer que la política puede ser tan entretenida como un partido de tenis verbal–, nos sumergimos en Charlie Wilson's War, esa película del 2007 que, admitámoslo, no es la primera que viene a la mente cuando pensamos en su filmografía, pero que destila ese ingenio sorkiniano que tanto adoramos.Imaginemos el panorama: finales de los años 80, la Guerra Fría en su apogeo, y un congresista texano llamado Charlie Wilson –conocido como "Good Time Charlie" por su afición a las fiestas, el whiskey y las compañías femeninas– que, de repente, se convierte en el artífice de la operación encubierta más grande de la historia de la CIA. La película se basa en el libro homónimo de George Crile, un tomo de 500 páginas repleto de detalles históricos que Sorkin adaptó con maestría, condensando intrigas geopolíticas en diálogos que chisporrotean como fuegos artificiales. ¿Cómo llegó Sorkin al proyecto? Pues, en un raro acto de agresividad profesional –él mismo lo admite–, leyó el libro y lo persiguió con ahínco, convirtiéndolo en el único guion que ha "cazado" de esa manera. Y vaya si lo logró: su énfasis en los personajes imperfectos pero heroicos, como Wilson, que pasa de playboy a salvador de los muyahidines afganos, es puro Sorkin, recordándonos sus obras como The West Wing, donde la burocracia se vuelve poesía.Tom Hanks interpreta a Wilson con esa calidez hankiana que hace que hasta un político corrupto parezca simpático. Detrás de cámaras, el director Mike Nichols, en lo que sería su última película, aportó su toque magistral y supo manejar el caos de enemigos históricos colaborando –pakistaníes, israelíes, afganos– en la narrativa real, algo que el guion de Sorkin plasma con ironía sutil.Julia Roberts, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Ned Beatty y Emily Blunt completan la constelación de estrellas de este filme que cuenta una historia tan absurda, que no puede sino ser cierta....¡Y lo es!La película fue bien recibida en general, con un 82% de aprobación en Rotten Tomatoes, donde se alaba cómo "entretiene e informa" gracias al guion astuto de Sorkin y actuaciones sólidas. Muchos críticos la vieron como una excelente comedia oscura basada en hechos reales, destacando a Hanks como un antihéroe encantador. Sin embargo, no todo fue aplausos: algunos la tildaron de "falsa y nada divertida", con "la peor actuación de la carrera de Roberts" En premios, brilló con 5 nominaciones a los Globos de Oro –mejor película comedia, actor para Hanks, actriz de reparto para Roberts, actor de reparto para Hoffman y guion para Sorkin–, más una nominación al Oscar para Hoffman como mejor actor de reparto. La Guerra de Charlie Wilson es, quizá, la película menos conocida y popular de Sorkin –eclipsada por hits como La Red Social o El Juicio de los 7 de Chicago–, y tal vez la más "floja" de su catálogo. Pero, no les quepa duda, incluso una "floja" de Sorkin es mejor que muchas de las producciones que inundan las pantallas hoy en día: cargada de inteligencia, humor sofisticado y una lección histórica que, con un guiño irónico, nos recuerda que la política puede ser absurdamente entretenida. ¿Listos para desentrañar más? ¡No se pierdan el episodio!Patreon: patreon.com/cinefiliayotrashierbas⁠Correo: cinefiliayotrashierbas@gmail.com No olviden suscribirse, compartir este episodio y dejar un comentario y un like, eso nos ayudará a crecer y a encontrar más audiencia. ¡Que lo disfruten!#AaronSorkin⁠ ⁠#TomHanks⁠ ⁠#Cine⁠ ⁠#JuliaRoberts

Looking for a cozy-but-creepy Christmas horror movie to watch while the snow piles up outside? On this episode of Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi dig into Wind Chill (2007), a snowbound Christmas ghost story directed by Gregory Jacobs and starring Emily Blunt and Ashton Holmes. Set the day before Christmas Eve on an icy Pennsylvania back road, Wind Chill strands two college students in a broken-down car, trapped in a supernatural time loop with vengeful ghosts, a corrupt highway patrolman, and deadly subzero wind chills that feel all too real.Henrique and Rachael break down why winter horror hits so hard, from the primal fear of being stuck in the cold to the way snow turns a lonely road into a coffin made of ice. They unpack the film's themes of trauma, vulnerability, and bad choices, exploring how a simple ride share home for the holidays becomes a story about boundaries, obsession, and the ghosts—literal and emotional—that won't stay buried.You'll hear why Wind Chill has become one of Henrique's go-to cold-weather watches, how Emily Blunt's performance hints at the superstar she'd become, and why Christmas ghost stories feel like the perfect counter-programming to warm, cozy holiday specials. Along the way, they share their own memories of brutal Midwestern wind chills, talk about what it's like to actually work in negative-20-degree weather, and compare real-life cold to the movie's white-knuckle survival stakes.Whether you're new to Wind Chill or revisiting it as part of your holiday horror marathon, this episode dives into the film's looping structure, ghostly mythology, and that unforgettable crooked cop, tying it all to ideas of eternal recurrence and what it means to finally break out of the past. It's a perfect listen if you love Christmas-set horror, snowbound thrillers, or underrated 2000s genre gems that deserved more love than their modest box office runs suggest.Inside this episode:Christmas road-trip horror: Why a simple rideshare home for the holidays is the perfect setup for a chilly Christmas ghost story and how Wind Chill uses a lonely back road to trap its characters in a supernatural bubble.Trauma, boundaries, and vulnerability: How the Girl and the Guy's messy emotional lives are just as dangerous as the crash, and why the movie hits differently if you've ever dealt with parasocial crushes, people-pleasing, or anxiety.Emily Blunt before blockbuster fame: A look at how Wind Chill showcases Blunt's range early on, and why this under-the-radar Christmas horror is a must-watch for her fans.Ghost stories at Christmas: The long tradition of telling Christmas ghost stories and where Wind Chill fits alongside other wintry horror staples the hosts love to revisit each year.The terror of real cold: Henrique's firsthand stories of working in savage wind chills and how that lived experience makes Wind Chill's frozen setting feel even more nightmarish.Loops, ghosts, and eternal recurrence: What Wind Chill is really saying about being stuck in the same patterns, and how the film's time loop and ghosts of 1953 tie into ideas of fate, choice, and escape.So grab a blanket, pour a hot drink, and queue up Wind Chill—then join Henrique and Rachael as they cut deep into holiday horror, one icy back road at a time.Where to watch Wind Chill (U.S.)Currently, Wind Chill (availability can change, so always double-check):Netflix — https://www.netflix.com/title/70053467The Roku Channel (free with ads) — https://therokuchannel.roku.com/details/632ad3e4a9ba5a70b27d78ae75f1fe91/wind-chillTubi (free with ads) — https://tubitv.com/movies/695641/wind-chillAmazon Video (rent/buy) — https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B000W0C1M8Fandango at Home / Vudu (rent/buy) — https://athome.fandango.com/content/browse/details/Wind-Chill/128803

From his early years trying to make it in show business, to that breakout moment on Broadway, to becoming one of the most beloved stars on television and film - today, we celebrate the legendary Dick Van Dyke!  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: My Lucky Life in and Out of Show Business (2011), Dick Van Dyke; Columbia Pictures Press Release, (1968), by John C.

After the arrival of strange creatures who use their strong hearing to hunt, a family fights to stay alive by living their lives in silence. A Quiet Place is directed by John Kraskinsi, who also stars in the film alongside Emily Blunt. While not his directorial debut, it's Krasinski's first horror movie and he makes an impact on the genre immediately. In what many, including us, believe is a modern day classic, Krasinski paints a sad world where a loving family is forced to live a silent existence in order to stay alive. This movie has so much going for it with excellent character development, interesting creatures, a theme of guilt that leads to an excellent conclusion, tense moments, and unique storytelling. The film doesn't overstay its welcome and while nobody expected something like this from Krasinski, it delivers in every way. YouTube | The Final PodcastDiscord | Spooky PiratesFacebook | The Final PodcastInstagram | thefinalpodcastMusic Credit: Karl Casey @ White Bat AudioWhat should we review next?

Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt do a deep dive with Awardist host Gerrad Hall on their new drama, 'The Smashing Machine,' from his transformation into UFC pioneer Mark Kerr and his concerns about still being seen as the Rock to his character realizing he needed to go to rehab for his drug addiction and the personal place Johnson went for that scene, and Blunt's character Dawn trying to escape torment and their toxic relationship. The lively conversation also includes a look back at their first movie together, 'Jungle Cruise,' Johnson revealing who he wanted to play in 'The Devil Wears Prada 2,' and more.

Matt and Bob fire up the lab equipment for a new Analysis on Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, fresh to Netflix. What should have been the director's long-awaited monster opus instead leaves them puzzling over CGI deer, swoony color palettes, and a strangely sexy Jacob Elordi. They dig into Oscar Isaac's mad-scientist energy, Christoph Waltz's syphilitic benefactor, and why del Toro's empathy may have drained the horror from Mary Shelley's tale. From Victorian melodrama to Twilight-core vibes, the guys debate whether this gothic romance ever truly comes alive. Then they pivot to The Smashing Machine—Benny Safdie's gritty UFC biopic starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson—and talk addiction, obsession, and Emily Blunt's thankless “nagging girlfriend” archetype. Rounding out the episode: Oscar buzz power rankings (One Battle After Another, Hamnet, Sentimental Value), and a quick look at upcoming awards-season heavy hitters like Bagonia and Marie Supreme.

Sean and Amanda get in the ring with Van Lathan to go multiple rounds on Benny Safdie's new film, ‘The Smashing Machine,' starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt. They work through their mixed feelings by recognizing the phenomenal performance from the Rock, which makes it worth the price of admission alone, and their disappointment and frustration toward Emily Blunt's incredibly one-note character (1:49). Then, Sean and Amanda create their new Best Picture power rankings following the fall film festival season (36:18). Finally, director Benny Safdie joins Sean to discuss his new film and explore his deeply intimate experience making the movie, why the Rock was perfect for the part of Mark Kerr, and the challenges of shooting a combat sports film (53:44).
