Tonight's Triple Feature brings together three wildly different but thematically connected films: Happy Gilmore 2, Heads of State, and The Thursday Murder Club. Netflix leads with Happy Gilmore 2, directed by Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya) and marking Adam Sandler's return to his most iconic role in a sequel that blends nostalgia with heart. Amazon Prime counters with Heads of State, an action-comedy from Ilya Naishuller (Nobody) starring John Cena and Idris Elba as unlikely political partners, mixing campaign satire with explosive buddy-movie energy. Rounding things out is Netflix's adaptation of Richard Osman's bestseller The Thursday Murder Club, helmed by Chris Columbus and headlined by Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, and Ben Kingsley in what looks to be the start of a cozy-crime franchise. Critics call Happy Gilmore 2 a fun if uneven revival, Heads of State a brash but entertaining streaming-era crowd-pleaser, and The Thursday Murder Club charming and faithful, if leisurely paced. Together, these films explore the comedy and drama of second chances and reinvention—whether it's Sandler's aging golfer taking another swing, Cena and Elba finding common ground in chaos, or a group of retirees proving that friendship and wit never go out of style.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Directed by Chris Columbus (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Home Alone), the film stars Helen Mirren, Ben Kingsley, Celia Imrie, Pierce Brosnan, and David Tennant in a murder mystery set in a quiet retirement community that's anything but sleepy.The hosts debate whether the ensemble's chemistry makes the story sparkle, if the plot holds up to the hype, and—most importantly—why Pierce Brosnan was even cast in this movie.

Let's Chat!Anthony invites us behind the scenes of his gripping crime series "Death of Peace of Mind" in this revealing mid-series review. For fans who've been following Detective Walter Grayson's pursuit of the methodical Green Briar killer, this episode peels back the layers of meaning beneath the blood and evidence.The podcast isn't just another detective story—it's a psychological excavation disguised as a crime thriller. "It's about confronting the pieces of you you'd rather bury," Anthony explains, revealing how each victim represents a philosophical concept: cowardice, unfinished debts, waiting, false accounting, and trapped identities. The Green Briar doesn't simply kill; he teaches through elaborately staged crime scenes that serve as sermons on human nature.What makes Detective Grayson so compelling is his unsettling familiarity with the killer's methods. He doesn't just investigate crime scenes—he recognizes them. His partner Laura Black, inspired by Helen Mirren's character in "Prime Suspect" and action star Cynthia Rothrock, suspects Grayson but is torn by their decade-long partnership. Their complex relationship forms the emotional core of the series, with Anthony hinting at untold history between them that will emerge in coming episodes.The 80s soundtrack isn't mere nostalgia; it's integrated into the storytelling, sometimes bleeding from the world into hallucination, raising questions about whose perspective we're truly experiencing. As Anthony promises to "turn everything up to ten" in the remaining episodes, the central question shifts from the killer's identity to a more disturbing possibility: "When the last page turns, whose name will be at the bottom?"Ready to dive deeper into this neo-noir world where detectives and killers might be reflections of each other?

Wenn Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan und Ben Kingsley in einer Seniorenresidenz plötzlich zum Mordclub werden, klingt das nach einem perfekten Cozy-Crime-Rezept. Doch kann Chris Columbus' Verfilmung von Richard Osmans Bestseller wirklich mit modernen Whodunnits wie Knives Out mithalten – oder bleibt es bei Sonntagskrimi-Vibes? Wir sprechen über das Zusammenspiel der Starbesetzung, die Eigenheiten des Genres „Cozy Crime“ und die Frage, ob der „Donnerstagsmordclub“ mehr ist als ein netter Rätselspaß für zwischendurch.

"The Thursday Murder Club" ist ein Netflix-Film, bei dem man sich sofort zu Hause fühlt. Schon nach wenigen Minuten entfaltet sich diese besondere britische Mischung aus Witz, Wärme und einem Hauch Melancholie, die einen durch den Abend trägt. Das Setting, eine elegante Seniorenresidenz in Kent, wirkt wie eine kleine Insel der Ruhe, und doch vibriert darunter das Leben voller Geheimnisse, Erinnerungen und Vitalität.Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley und Celia Imrie spielen mit einer Lust und Selbstverständlichkeit, die sofort überspringt. Jeder Satz, jeder Blick ist geschliffen und nie gekünstelt. Man merkt, dass diese Schauspielerinnen und Schauspieler ihre Rollen genießen, und das übt einen besonderen Reiz aus.Die Geschichte hat nicht das Tempo eines Thrillers, sondern den Rhythmus einer guten Tasse Tee am Nachmittag. Gerade diese Entschleunigung fesselt. Man fühlt sich, als säße man selbst im Klub, rätselte mit und lachte über die Absurditäten des Lebens.Besonders schön ist der Blick auf das Alter. Hier stehen Klugheit, Witz und jugendlicher Eigensinn im Mittelpunkt. Es ist ein liebevoller Gegenentwurf zu Geschichten, die ältere Menschen an den Rand drängen. In diesem Film sind sie die Helden.Dazu kommt eine Atmosphäre, die man beinahe riechen und fühlen kann. Gepflegte Rasenflächen, knarzende Dielen und stille Abende im Gemeinschaftsraum. Alles wird so warm erzählt, dass man am Ende gar nicht mehr weiß, ob man einen Kriminalfilm gesehen hat oder eine Ode an das Leben, das niemals stillsteht.

James Cameron-Wilson loved the start of beautifully-written black comedy The Roses (another remake) at #1. But he liked the characters played by Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch so much that it became painful and hard to stomach as it turned darker. He preferred #6 Caught Stealing, a freewheeling caper set in 1998 with Austin Butler, directed by Darren Aronofsky. It's an inventive and often very funny surprise. He found #43, Slovenian Little Trouble Girls, an awakening drama set in a Catholic school, sensitive and a breath of fresh air. He had few good words to say about Netflix's The Thursday Murder Club with the likes of Helen Mirren, feeling it like a poor TV movie from another era. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jay Duplass directs; Michael Strassner co-writes and stars. “The Long Walk” —You thought the Hunger Games were bad, how about this: Teenage boys compete in a walking contest.

October releases “The Smashing Machine” – Dwayne Johnson tries his hand at mixed-martial arts as UFC champion Mark Kerr.

Jeff Bridges is here, too, but this is about a new program (Ares) that’s about to embark on a dangerous mission. “Roofman” – A robber evades authorities by hanging out in a toy store. Channing Tatum plays the thief, Peter Dinklage and Kirsten Dunst swirl around him. “Anemone” – Daniel Day-Lewis comes out of retirement for this film directed by his son, Ronan. The plot?

Expect at least one new song and bigger roles for the men in their lives. No place like home? That’s included, too. Cynthia Orivo and Ariana Grande could double up on the Oscar nominations.

UNDRESSED WITH POL' AND PATRIK
Danielle Vasinova PT 1: From Manure to The Madison with Michelle Pfeiffer. Helen Mirren Shade and My Emmy is Where? Death Becomes her and Derby Dreams!

UNDRESSED WITH POL' AND PATRIK

The glam squad is in overdrive as Pol' Atteu and Patrik Simpson welcome actress, model, and total powerhouse Danielle Vasinova into the Undressed hot seat! You know her from The Bay (where she snagged an Emmy), the Yellowstone universe (1923), and now the buzzy new series The Madison alongside Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell. But behind the Hollywood dazzle is a farm girl from Connecticut who once shoveled manure, milked cows, and slept in her horse's stall when she got mad at her parents. Talk about rags-to-red-carpet! From cheerleading drama (she made the squad, her best friend didn't) to being scouted by Elite in a mall, Danielle dishes how her small-town upbringing collided with the high-fashion world of New York. She opens up about moving to L.A. in her Honda Accord, crashing on a blow-up mattress in Van Nuys (with some colorful neighbors), and landing her first acting gig on The Young and the Restless as “Stone” — literally overnight. The convo goes wild with casino confessions (Pol' screaming like a jackpot winner over $5), favorite cocktails (Danielle's a “skinny spicy” girl, Patrik' a Espresso Martini queen), and whether marrying Danielle could get Pol' or Patrik that coveted Cherokee/Sioux “check.” From horse racing dreams (her bucket list is a Kentucky Derby winner named Danny California) to how she landed 1923 by actually knowing how to ride a horse when another actress couldn't — Danielle proves preparation meets destiny. Plus, she spills on working with Harrison Ford, crossing paths with Helen Mirren, and filming The Madison in Montana. The tea gets deeper when Danielle reveals she nearly lost her life in early COVID days — placed on a ventilator, dropping to 90 pounds, and relearning how to walk. Her resilience and gratitude shine as she recalls surviving against all odds, a life-changing moment that reshaped everything. Patrik and Pol' share their own brushes with illness, a dramatic horse accident (caught on film for Gown and Out in Beverly Hills), and how angels—and a bit of couture flair—always seem to intervene. And because it's not Undressed without some glam gossip, we touch on Danielle being honored as Glamour Magazine's Woman of the Year, modeling for Condé Nast in Cappadocia, and her Comic-Con adventures (yes, being body-scanned in Van Nuys by “Dick” is as awkward as it sounds). Finally, Pol' pulls Danielle into the mystical world of his famous coffee cup reading. In the grinds, he sees anchors of her life: a feather tied to her role as Kestrel in The Madison and a volcanic rock from Iceland she always carries, both symbols of grounding and destiny. The reading hints at not only two new opportunities ahead, but also a hidden admirer in her life who wants to step out of the “friend zone.” Danielle is shook, Patrik is cackling, and Pol' insists the rock will guide her toward love and fortune. From Hollywood gossip to heartfelt survival stories, farm life to fashion spreads, and casinos to Comanche dialect coaches, this episode is a rollercoaster of laughs, revelations, and glam-tastic storytelling that proves Danielle Vasinova is anything but ordinary.

This week we all watched the Chris Columbis-directed THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB (working title: Olds Detect), a comedy-drama about four friends (Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Kingsley, and Celia Imrie), residents of an assisted living facility, who solve cold cases. That is, until a very real and current case lands in their laps when the facility's co-owners end up dead just as they plan to tear up the facility and force the residents out. We had mixed reactions to this one, but at least two Spoilerpiecers liked it more than the third (guess how that shakes out?). Then there's LURKER, writer-director Alex Russell's fresh take on celebrity culture and the depths to we which we mere mortals will sink to find it and stay in it. There's a powerful performance by Théodore Pellerin as an amoral creep clinging to an up and coming pop star played by Archie Madekwe. We had different reactions to this one, too, coming out, again, two to one in favor. And over on Patreon, we watched the 1958 melodrama THE LONG, HOT SUMMER, starring Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, and Orson Welles.

Shat the Movies: 80's & 90's Best Film Review

For our Ninth Anniversary Episode, the Shat Crew draws the sword from the stone and rides into John Boorman's epic Excalibur (1981). Commissioned by Chris, Mike, and Ollie to celebrate their father Robert's 60th birthday, this Arthurian fever dream delivers knights, magic, and more shiny armor than a Manowar album cover. From Nicol Williamson's scene-stealing Merlin to Helen Mirren's wickedly alluring Morgana, the movie is equal parts mythic grandeur and campy chaos. Gene marvels at the operatic visuals, while Big D is dazzled by the medieval carnage. Together they debate whether this is the definitive retelling of the Arthurian legend or just a two-and-a-half-hour bad trip brought to life. As we celebrate nine years of podcasting, join us for knights in shining armor, incestuous twists and the most metal “O Fortuna” montage ever put to film. Long live the once and future pod! Plot Summary:In Excalibur (1981), director John Boorman reimagines the Arthurian legend with a mix of operatic spectacle and raw brutality. From Uther Pendragon's lustful betrayal to Arthur's rise as king, the film chronicles the rise and fall of Camelot through battles, betrayal, and forbidden love. With unforgettable performances from Nicol Williamson as Merlin and Helen Mirren as Morgana, Excalibur stands as one of the most iconic—and most eccentric—fantasy films of the 1980s.

It took a while, but I still haven't found anyone who disagrees. The Reserve Bank: 2/10 They missed the contraction, and they paused as the country was going backwards. Now we need two more cuts. They got us into trouble but can't get us out? Look up the word "useless" in the dictionary. Helen Mirren: 7/10 James Bond "has to be a guy". You wouldn't have had to say that once. Nowadays it makes headlines. TOP: 4/10 As novel as it is to advertise for a leader, the fact you don't have one probably sums up the prospects for next year - which are none.
