Welp, pack it up, Russ and Jared finally did it. They actually nailed the plot with their Trailer Trash prognostications!

They're talking Mindcage (2022), starring Martin Lawrence, Melissa Roxburgh, John Malkovich, Robert Knepper, Neb Chupin, and Jacob Grodnik. Stay tuned for an all-new Trailer Trash next week!

On this episode of Bad Dads Film Review, the team reviews Jonah Hex (2010) — DC's supernatural western starring Josh Brolin as the scarred bounty hunter, John Malkovich as revenge-villain Quentin Turnbull, and Megan Fox as Lilah/Tallulah, depending on which bit of the film you believe.In this episodeDan's late pick and the argument over whether Jonah Hex counts as the midweek movie“Johan Hex” and the accidental Scandinavian spin-off nobody asked forThe brutally rushed origin story: dead family, branded face, Native American resurrection smoke, and crow-adjacent powersJonah Hex as a supernatural bounty hunter who can temporarily revive corpses for informationThe horse-mounted Gatling guns and the film's steampunk Wild West weaponryMegan Fox's immaculate Wild West prostitute character and the noble-prostitute tropeMichael Fassbender's bowler hat, neck tattoo, Irish accent, and career-survival appearanceJohn Malkovich's oddly flat Turnbull performance and his plan to attack America with glowing cannonball super-weaponsThe confusing resurrection sequence, crow-from-the-mouth imagery, and anticlimactic final showdownComparisons with Ghost Rider, Cowboys & Aliens, Wild Wild West, Preacher, The Crow, The Dark Knight, and The Outlaw Josey WalesThe film's disastrous box office: around $47m reported production budget versus around $10.5m worldwide return, before marketingBad Dads consensusRuntime: mercifully shortCast: bizarrely stackedPlot coherence: extremely questionableVisual ideas: occasional flashes of something betterPerformances: mostly phoned in, with Brolin just about surviving itBest feature: it ends quicklyOverall: not a recommend, though Dan resists calling it one of the worst ever and Cris may still watch it out of sheer curiosityYou can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Pop culture nostalgia hits hard when you realize the movie you pretended to understand in high school might actually be a masterpiece. Natalie and Angela revisit the cult classic Being John Malkovich and discover that Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman's bizarre brain-bending comedy is even better than they remembered. From the infamous 7½ floor to celebrity satire, puppetry, portals, and existential crises, the hosts unpack why this unforgettable film became one of the most talked-about movies of the late '90s. Along the way, they share hilarious personal stories, debate the art of puppeteering, discuss Cameron Diaz's shocking transformation, celebrate John Malkovich's fearless performance, and explore why the movie's commentary on fame and identity feels more relevant than ever. If you love nostalgic media, TV and film analysis, and humorous commentary on pop culture classics, this episode is for you.
How many times can the guys say "mindcage!"? It's the new "geostorm!" Find out as Russ and Jared get into it with the trailer for Silence of the Lambs ripoff, Mindcage (2022), starring Martin Lawrence, Melissa Roxburgh, John Malkovich, Robert Knepper, Neb Chupin, and Jacob Grodnik. Prognostications for this one are meta and off the rails, and hopefully the movie is just as unhinged. Stay tuned for the full episode next week!

The buzz around Opus (2025) may have been more build-up than pay-off in the horror fandom, but it's time to give this flick the attention it deserves, Spookies. For our second installment of Pop Star Horror Month, we're heading out to Moretti's private compound with budding music journalist Ayo Edebiri, and we're ready to do our research on the lore while paying attention to all the small touches that make John Malkovich's star power shine. Though this movie may not be perfect, between its cast full of familiar faces and a soundtrack made up of bangers, there's a lot here to applaud.

In what will become a trend for at least the next little while, I've got 2 reviews in one episode here in podcast #727. First, I detail my favourite moments, lines and scenes in Wolfgang Petersen's In The Line Of Fire. John Malkovich has rarely been in better form as the villain and Clint Eastwood has never been funnier or more charming as the hero. Malkovich wants to assassinate the president and Secret Service man Clint is determined to stop him. Then Best Picture winner of 1931, Wesley Ruggles' Cimarron, gets more of my usual beat-by-beat analysis. It's a western about a successful newspaperman and lawyer (Richard Dix) who has wanderlust...and his racist wife (Irene Dunne) who evolves on that issue and becomes a leader in the town. So rendezvous with my, uh, show about both In The Line Of Fire and Cimarron. Subscribe to Have You Ever Seen, but how about also jotting down a review? You can rate the show too (5 stars!).

DC Pierson (Captain America: Winter Soldier, Community) returns to talk a little about the brand new restoration of his cult classic indie comedy, Mystery Team co-starring Donald Glover and Dominic Dierkes, as well as continue his Spiel journey of watching every Transformers movie until all have been conquered. At this point in the Transformers franchise we're pretty sure Steven Spielberg's creative input is limited to asking when his check is going to be deposited, but he's technically still an executive producer and by God we're going to finish them out. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is the third film in the franchise and when it was released in 2011 it was still massively popular entertainment, coming in at #2 at the box office that year. This one sees poor Sam Witwicky get a medal of honor from Obama, more rah-rah military action, the worst digital JFK you've ever seen, Buzz Aldren having a chat with Optimus Prime, John Malkovich being a complete weirdo, and Leonard Nimoy getting to relish in being the baddie. And still it feels like this series is wearing thin and we're not already halfway through the movies. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is the United States a nation state? Does it have a national identity? On this episode of the Transatlantic, scholar Colin Woodard discusses his early career experiences as a journalist in Eastern Europe and the Balkans at the end of the Cold War and how that work informs his work on national identity in the United States. He then talks about his current research uncovering what he describes as eleven distinct nations that make up the United States and how their clashing cultures and traditions have defined the country's struggle to form a national story and identity. Colin Woodard – a New York Times bestselling historian and Polk Award-winning journalist – is one of the most respected authorities on North American regionalism, the sociology of United States nationhood, and how our colonial past shapes and explains the present. Compelling, dynamic and thought provoking, he offers a fascinating look at where America has come from, how we ended up as we are, and how we might shape our future. Author of the award winning Wall Street Journal bestseller American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America, Woodard has written six books including The Republic of Pirates — a New York Times bestselling history of Blackbeard's pirate gang that was made into a primetime NBC series with John Malkovich and Claire Foye – and Union: The Struggle to Forge the Story of United States Nationhood, which tells the harrowing story of the creation of the American myth in the 19th century, a story that reverberates in the news cycle today. His latest book is Nations Apart: How Clashing Regional Cultures Shattered America, released by Viking/Penguin in November 2025. He is the founder and director of Nationhood Lab at the Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy at Salve Regina University, an interdisciplinary research, writing, testing and dissemination project focused on counteracting the authoritarian threat to American democracy and the centrifugal forces threatening the federation's stability. He is also a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, a visiting scholar at the Minneapolis-based HealthPartners Institute and a POLITICO contributing writer. As State and National Affairs Writer at the Portland Press Herald and Maine Sunday Telegram he received a 2012 George Polk Award, was named Maine Journalist of the Year in 2014, and was a finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting. A longtime foreign correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor, The San Francisco Chronicle, and The Chronicle of Higher Education, he has reported from more than fifty foreign countries and seven continents from postings in Budapest, Zagreb, Washington, D.C. and the US-Mexico border and covered the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and its bloody aftermath. His work has appeared in dozens of publications including The Economist, The New York Times, Smithsonian, The Washington Post, The Guardian, Newsweek and Washington Monthly and has been featured on CNN, the Rachel Maddow Show, Chuck Todd's The Daily Rundown, The PBS News Hour, and NPR's Weekend Edition. A graduate of Tufts University and the University of Chicago, he's received the 2004 Jane Bagley Lehman Award for Public Advocacy, a Pew Fellowship in International Journalism at the Johns Hopkins University School for Advanced International Study and was named one of the Best State Capitol Reporters in America by the Washington Post. He lives in Maine. This podcast is hosted by Bakhti Nishanov and produced by Alanna Novetsky, in conjunction with the Senate Recording Studio.

The episode delves into the perplexing film "Being John Malkovich," a cinematic endeavor that raises profound questions regarding its conception and execution. We engage in a critical examination of the film's narrative structure, particularly its disjointedness and lack of coherent storytelling, which ultimately leads us to question the rationale behind its production. The discussion highlights the film's peculiar premise—a puppeteer discovering a portal into the mind of John Malkovich—and how this concept, while intriguing, fails to deliver a meaningful payoff throughout the film's duration. We express our disdain for the overemphasis on puppeteering, which we contend detracts from the central narrative and renders the viewing experience tedious. In summary, the episode is a candid exploration of our sentiments towards a film we both find lacking, as we dissect its shortcomings and ponder the potential for a more cohesive and engaging story.Support us:https://www.patreon.com/whatsourverdictEmail us:hosts@whatsourverdict.comFollow us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsourverdictTwitter: @whatsourverdictInstagram: @whatsourverdictYouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC-K_E-ofs3b85BnoU4R6liAVisit us:www.whatsourverdict.com

Hey everybody, welcome back to Myopia Movies. This week we're tackling an action-silly Nicolas Cage classic: Con Air. And honestly—if you've never seen it before, I almost want to tell you to stop and watch it first… but our discussion is good enough that you'll survive either way. Fair warning: this episode got chaotic. So chaotic, in fact, that our newly married editor and panelist, Nur Chernnet, had to cut nearly 15 minutes of material. We went completely off the rails. What you're hearing is the best of what survived. We hope you enjoy the wreckage. As always, keep listening, keep subscribing—and now for some big news. If you're listening to this when it drops (mid-January 2026) and you're in the Metro Atlanta area, make sure you follow CineProv on Facebook. At the end of the month—the final Wednesday—we're launching a brand-new regular CineProv show. Even better, Keiko and Jeremy, two members of the Myopia crew, will be debuting their first show that night. Go support them. It's going to be great. One last thing: attached to this episode is a link to our Amazon Wish List. If you pick a movie from the list, not only will we cover it on the podcast (thank you for the support!), but we'll also record an exclusive, personalized riff just for you—attached to a DVD so you can watch us tear into the movie specifically in your honor. Check it out, see if anything grabs you, and as always—thanks for listening. How will Con Air hold up? Host: Nic Panel: Candace, Jeremy Directed by Simon West Starring: Nicolas Cage, John Cusack, John Malkovich, Colm Meaney, Mykelti Williamson, Nick Chinlund, Renoly Santiago, Ving Rhames, Dave Chappelle, Rachel Ticotin, Steve Eastin, Steve Buscemi, Danny Trejo, M.C.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay are all-in on telling wild stories as they talk about a movie that set off a poker boom, 'Rounders.' Bombay is the first one in the pot, as he recalls how going on an epic poker run helped get him out of serious money troubles in his youth. Then the boys discuss the classic sports movie disguised as a gambling movie. Featuring a memorable villain portrayed by John Malkovich, who decided to make some of the most gonzo acting choices imaginable, and we love him for it. Along with a rising Matt Damon, the film also stars Edward Norton as Worm, the type of friend you can't leave alone for more than two minutes. That character reminds Andy of when he picked up a buddy from jail, and the lessons he learned. On top of the top tier acting, John Dahl also showed off his noir-sensibilities behind the camera, as the movie is not only filled with specific poker detail, but also flourishes of late '90s New York. It not only taught a generation how to play Texas Hold 'Em, but also taught that in the game of life, women are the rake.

Episode 689: Bryan returns to be immediately bored by Brett and Andrew arguing over John Malkovich vs Jeff Goldblum vs Keanu Reeves. Is Nick Fuentes a distraction?

Searching the drops archive because we've run out of any good ideas.

In our latest tribute, Janet, John, (and Pen) celebrate the life and career extremely talented and iconic actor... Michael Madsen! Born in Chicago to a filmmaking and author mother and a veteran/firefighting father, this actor went against the grain during his rather chaotic upbringing and got his start in theater. Specifically with the Steppenwolf Theatre Company as John Malkovich's apprentice. His first noteworthy role being that of a small role in the science fiction film, WarGames. After that he continued acting in small roles for films and television shows until he eventually launched his career by playing Bump Bailey in The Natural (1984). He then went onto to starring in Quentin Taratino's directoral debut film, Reservoir Dogs, as Mr. Blonde. A role that quickly changed his status from actor to cultural icon. He later starred and worked in many films such as, Species (1995), The Getaway (1994), and Donnie Brasco (1997), Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) and 2 (2004), Sin City (2005), and many more. He also went onto winning a couple of awards, one being the New York International Independent Film & Video Festival for Best Actor for his role in Strength and Honor (2007) in 2008.

Bill Maher kicks back with John Malkovich for a candid conversation that jumps from Death of a Salesman and his new series Bad Monkey to his unexpected love of classical-music collaborations—and why so much theater ends up “a misery.” Malkovich opens up about his Leave-It-to-Beaver childhood, his 82nd Airborne environmentalist father, getting beaten as a kid, and the lingering feeling he'll never quite measure up. Along the way, he and Bill veer into AI, driverless cars, nightmare hotels, and that golden window of being born after antibiotics but before the robots take over, with a detour to a great story about how Con Air came to be, as well as Bill's unabashed love for In the Line of Fire.

Hwæt a Movie is back! This time we dive deep into the uncanny valley epic Beowulf from 2007. Released at the height of Robert Zemeckis's motion-capture mania, this version of our favorite Old English classic promised to bring the poem to life like never before. It was slated to be an event like no other, at least for John and Andy. In this star-studded and CG-saturated film, Ray Winstone voices a Beowulf who looks suspiciously like an action figure and swaggers like he just killed nine nicors. He's accompanied by the ageless Wiglaf, played by Brendan Gleeson. The great Anthony Hopkins plays a jovial but somewhat mad King Hrothgar, Robin Wright plays the deeply troubled Queen Wealhtheow, and John Malkovich does his best John Malkovich as Unferth. But if we're honest, this is the Grendel family's movie from start to finish. Crispin Glover turns in a unforgettable performance as a Grendel who swells with anger and shrinks with vulnerability. Grendel's mother is a gold-dipped, shape-shifting femme fatale with stiletto feet. She's also very much Angelina Jolie. And then there's Grendel's little half-brother dragon. That's right, the dragon is part of the family! Is this adaptation a clever deconstruction of heroism and myth-making? Or just an excuse to get Beowulf naked on an animated dragon? Zemeckis, Gaiman, and Avary take some bold liberties with the source material in this one, and we're here to guide you through it all from the perspective of two curmudgeonly middle-aged medievalists. As always, this episode of Hwæt a Movie includes a thorough summary and discussion of the film, a brief Q&A, and our final ratings: how well the film handles Beowulf, Grendel, and Grendel's mother, plus our ever-important scores for faithfulness to the source and overall entertainment value. Beowulf (2007) was a wild ride to discuss, and we hope you enjoy it half as much as Beowulf enjoys shouting his own name. Or at least as much as Zemeckis likes cleverly blocking Beowulf's bare bits from view with conveniently placed objects. Once you've listened, let us know your thoughts. Is this the definitive Beowulf for the 21st century? Or just a fever dream in a damp cave? And do you forgive us for being grumpy when it comes to Beowulf movies?

What did we learn, Palmer? That 2008's Burn After Reading is pretty freakin' hilarious, sir. Our Fran (Hoepfner, not McDormand) joins us this week to talk about Joel and Ethan Coen's madcap dark comedy about a bunch of morons living in the DC area. The way John Malkovich says “mem-waah”...George Clooney's homemade dildo chair…Brad Pitt's stupid face right before getting murked…it all adds up to a splendid tapestry of silliness.
