FANCY YOURSELF A CELEB EXPERT? Take The Spill's Pop Culture Quiz here.Get ready because this Brutally Honest Review is indeed Brutal. We watched Office Romance so you don't have to (or so you can debate us after you do).The premise: J Lo is a big shot at work, there are workplace rules, and absolutely nobody follows them. And let's just say we have some absolutely brutal thoughts on her leading man Brett Goldstein's presence, whether the chemistry actually lands, and why this feels less like a rom-com and more like a very expensive fan letter nobody asked for.We also get into what that shocking baby scene means for Australian birth rates, and the bigger question: does this actually move the needle for the rom-com crisis, or is it just another in-between filler?Remember The Spill drops the tea twice a day in this feed so follow us for all the latest entertainment news… OR you can WATCH our show in full length video on the Apple Podcast app - make sure your phone is up to date and enjoy the watch!

Kevin Kline and an Oscar-nominated Joan Cusack have a gay old time in 1997's In & Out. Back then, the comedy was a modest hit with critics and audiences as it juggled social commentary and slapstick humor while tackling a (then) hot-topic theme: homosexuality (gasp!). But now, decades later, should we leave this Frank Oz flick in the closet? When are “gay jokes” funny? And should Kline's character consider pressing charges against Tom Selleck's entertainment reporter? The Old Roommates revisit all the Macho Man madness through their middle-aged lens.

The Mandalorian & Grogu is not a good movie. It has a James Bond cold open that made both hosts genuinely excited, and then it spends two hours systematically destroying that goodwill with flat performances, cartoon-level writing, and a villain nobody asked for. MonteCristo and DoA break down how Dave Filoni turned Mandalorian Season 4 into a feature film that's 45 minutes too long, wastes its entire cast, and accidentally commits genocide.

This week, we review Boots Riley's sophomore feature, I Love Boosters, an absurdist comedy skewering capitalist rot at the center of the fashion industry. An enthusiastic reflection of Riley's own politics, I Love Boosters features an infectious display of surrealist humor, eye-popping visuals, and labor-of-love practical effects; but is it enough to cover its everything-and-the-kitchen-sink approach? We discuss the movie, go on a Star Wars tangent, and give an update on our Summer Box Office Wager.

Oh. My. Goodness. Are YOU in for a treat!? Hopefully, you're more hopeful than Roger Ebert, who rated this as the worst film of 1988. Fancy a game of top Tom Berenger action? Because it's here!  It's a primetime slice of New York cheesecake coming your way from Donald P. Bellisario, the creator of MAGNUM PI and AIRWOLF. Some say this is his one and only film, others would say he directed AIRWOLF: THE MOVIE, too.  Either way, from the way Ryan and Laura scramble all over themselves to get their favourite moments heard, we can only suspect you'll have as much fun watching this, intoxicated and REALLY SMOKING your cigarettes, as only Tom can.

Colours of Time In 1895, young Adele leaves Normandy for Paris, a city alive and buzzing with invention, photography and the rise of Impressionism. In the present day, her descendants inherit an unexpected legacy: a countryside house in Normandy, abandoned for decades and suspended in time. Four of Adele's descendants arrive to survey the Estate, and together end up piecing together the story of Adele's unexpected life. Case 137 Stéphanie, a police officer working for Internal Affairs, is assigned to a case involving a young man severely wounded during a tense and chaotic demonstration in Paris. While she finds no evidence of illegitimate police violence, the case takes a personal turn when she discovers the victim is from her hometown.

D-Day is one of the most studied military operations in history. But what if the fate of the Allied invasion hinged not on generals, tanks, or landing craft—but on a weather forecast?In this episode of Reckoning with Jason Herbert, Jason is joined by historians Todd Arrington and Dr. Colin Colbourn to discuss the new film Pressure, starring Brendan Fraser as General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Andrew Scott as meteorologist James Stagg. Together they explore the extraordinary decisions made in the days before June 6, 1944, when uncertain forecasts, competing personalities, and the weight of history converged on a single choice: whether to launch Operation Overlord.The conversation examines Eisenhower's leadership under immense strain, the often-overlooked role of meteorology in World War II, the disastrous rehearsal known as Exercise Tiger, and the complex relationships among Allied commanders such as Bernard Montgomery. Along the way, the panel weighs in on the film's historical accuracy, its performances, and why Pressure succeeds by telling a familiar story from an entirely unexpected angle. If you've ever wondered how close D-Day came to being postponed—or how something as unpredictable as the weather helped shape the course of the twentieth century—this is an episode you won't want to miss.Topics discussed: The true story behind the film Pressure Dwight Eisenhower and the burden of command  James Stagg and the weather forecast that changed history  Exercise Tiger and the hidden costs of preparing for D-Day  Bernard Montgomery, Allied politics, and coalition warfare  The role of weather in World War II operations  Historical accuracy versus cinematic storytelling  Brendan Fraser, Andrew Scott, and Damian Lewis on screen

This episode examines a case that sits at the uneasy boundary between criminal adjudication, media power, and moral authority: the prosecution and execution of Aileen Wuornos, labeled the “first female serial killer. We look at two documentaries by Nick Broomfield—Aileen Wuornos: The Selling of a Serial Killer (1992) and Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer (2003)—alongside the feature film Monster (2003), written and directed by Patty Jenkins and starring Charlize Theron in an Oscar-winning role. Broomfield's documentaries are less about guilt or innocence than about process: who controls the narrative, how legal representation operates, and what happens when a defendant's life becomes an object of transaction, between lawyers, media, and the public. The films also penetrate the issues around the application of the death penalty in the United States, and the problems that arise when the state seeks to executive individuals who are themselves victims and suffer from severe mental illness. Monster  approaches the same facts through dramatization. It also raises important questions, including how far context should matter in judging criminal responsibility and construction of narratives around crimes.Timestamps:0:00   Introduction2:58   Capturing law on film5:24   The two Nick Broomfield documentaries11:16   Addressing Aileen Wuornos's murders14:04  The flawed defense strategy18:47  The depiction of Tyria Moore (Aileen Wuornos's girlfriend20:55  Selling the Aileen Wuornos story23:09  The theme of the “monster”28:29  Themes of betrayal and self-defense31:53   Nick Broomfield and an outsider view of the American legal system34:56  Mental illness and the death penalty37:39  Media coverage of sensational murders 39:22  Failures of the legal process44:26  A critique of the death penalty47:00  Exoticization in the filmsFurther Reading: Cavanaugh, L.

“Sounds like an Arabian racehorse to me.”On this episode we investigate a movie made by a unique British filmmaker: Cliff Twemlow. After working as a bodybuilder, bouncer, music composter and novelist, Twemlow decided to reinvent himself as a movie mogul. Over a 10-year period, he made a string of low budget – and often no budget - films for the home video market. Here, we look at one of his works, TARGET EVE ISLAND (1983).We're joined by Doug Tilley from Cinema Smorgasbord to look at the fascinating life, career, and work of Cliff Twemlow. And as part of this, we also discuss the documentary MANCUNIAN MAN: THE LEGENDARY LIFE OF CLIFF TWEMLOW (2023).Episode 172.Show notesFollow Exploding HelicopterBluesky: @chopperfireball.bsky.socialWebsite: explodinghelicopter.comInstagram: explodinghelicopterFollow Cinema SmorgasbordBluesky: @Cinemasmorgasbord.bsky.socialWebsite: Cinema Smorgasbord

John Krasinski is back as everyone's favorite CIA analyst, but Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan Ghost War completely misses the mark. We are breaking down why this highly anticipated Prime Video movie feels less like a cinematic blockbuster and more like a basic, predictable CBS movie of the week. While the chemistry between the returning cast is totally fine, the plot relies on tired spy tropes and a generic rogue black ops unit that we have already seen a thousand times before. If you were hoping for the high octane energy, sleek visuals, and elite pacing of Citadel, you are going to be severely disappointed by how average this film turned out to be. Check out our honest review to see if it is even worth adding to your streaming watchlist!

“The Fugitive” RevisitedA one-armed man wreaks havoc on the life of Dr. Richard Kimble in the 1993 film, The Fugitive. Based on the 1960s TV series, the movie pulled out all the cinematic stops and became a runaway hit, making nearly $370 million at the box office. The Academy soon followed, garnering the Harrison Ford flick with several Oscar nominations and a win for Tommy Lee Jones. But now, decades later, is this cat-and-mouse thriller a little cheesy? Does Dr. Kimble have the worst lawyer in film history? And why does U.S. Marshal Gerard (Jones) look so darn adorable in an old winter hat? The Old Roommates bust The Fugitive out of DVD jail and give it a revisit through their middle-aged lens.

Send us Fan MailLegends of The Lens - Episode 3 for 2026The Master of Light & Shadow - Steven Bernstein - 50 Years of CinematographyWhat does it take to sustain five decades at the top of the film industry? In this technical archive session, we sit down with —Steven Bernstein, ASC. With over 50 years of cinematography experience, Steven has shaped the visual language of some of the most culturally significant films in history; Mr. Bernstein is also a director, screenwriter, author and podcast host. From his early days at the BBC and the high-energy era of music videos to winning an Oscar for the raw, haunting aesthetic of Monster (Charlize Theron), Steven deconstructs the craft behind the camera. We go deep into the lighting techniques of global cult classics like The Waterboy, White Chicks, and Half Baked, and discuss the magical realism of Like Water for Chocolate.We also tackle the massive shifts of 2026: The role of AI in filmmaking, the technical evolution of drones in cinema, and why the "cinema experience" remains a vital battleground against the streaming giants. This is more than an interview; it is a technical masterclass and a legacy archive for anyone serious about the craft of filmmaking.Chapters0:00 Intro – 50 Years of Cinematography – Steven Bernstein ASC3:03 The UK Roots – BBC & The Era of Music Videos8:36 Steven's ‘Yes' Moment: Breaking into Hollywood12:37 The Real Role of a Cinematographer (Masterclass)16:34 Steven's First Film – Lessons from the Set18:00 Like Water for Chocolate – Visual Storytelling20:57 Bulletproof – Action & Lighting Techniques26:18 Drones in Cinema + The Impact of AI in 202637:04 Streaming vs. The Cinema Experience45:07 The Water Boy & White Chicks – Lighting Comedy47:23 Scary Movie 2 – Horror Parody Aesthetics50:02 Half Baked – The Stoners Cult Classic51:04 Monster – How to Film Oscar Winning Cinema 59:34 Steven's 2026 Outlook + New Novel: GRQ1:03:06 Steven's Final Advice for Filmmakers1:05:01 Outro & Audible 30-Day Free Trial Follow Steven Bernstein – Social Media + Websites:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/stevenbernsteindirectorwriter?igsh=dmQwdjhrZ2FoZTNqPodcast – Filmmaker and Fanshttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/filmmaker-and-fans-podcast/id1728761046Directors Guild Of Americawww.dga.org International Cinematographers Guildwww.icg600.com DMR is proud to be part of the Audible Creator Program.
