SPY GAME (2001) looks like a slick, early-2000s spy thriller, but beneath Tony Scott's kinetic style is a surprisingly thoughtful film about loyalty, institutional cynicism, and the quiet mechanics of real espionage. Rather than gadgets or superhuman assassins, SPY GAME is about phone calls, favors, leverage, and knowing the system well enough to bend it without breaking it.   Robert Redford plays Nathan Muir, a veteran CIA operative on his final day before retirement, racing against the clock to save his former protégé Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt), who has been captured in a Chinese prison after going off-mission. What unfolds is less an action spectacle and more a chess match fought through bureaucracy, institutional blind spots, and decades of accumulated spycraft.   As the film moves between past missions and present-day interrogation rooms, SPY GAME becomes a story about mentorship, moral compromise, and the cost of serving systems that treat people as expendable assets. Redford delivers one of his most restrained performances, while Tony Scott proves that a “popcorn director” can still find real heart beneath the spectacle. Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/FOURPLAY and use code FOURPLAY and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup! Raycon audio products are up to 20% off this holiday season!

We break down Wicked: For Good, discussing the risks and rewards of splitting the beloved musical in two, whether Act Two can live up to expectations, and how the film handles its darker themes. From there, it's on to Guillermo del Toro's long-awaited Frankenstein — a visually rich, emotionally grounded take on the classic monster that puts empathy and tragedy front and centre. Finally, we hit the dystopian arena with Edgar Wright's The Running Man, asking whether this slick reimagining delivers Wright's trademark energy or feels restrained by the source material. Big adaptations, iconic monsters, and modern takes on classic stories — it's a packed episode of films worth arguing about. #NerdToKnowBasis,#Podcast,#PopCulture,#Wicked,#WickedForGood,#Frankenstein,#GuillermoDelToro,#TheRunningMan,#EdgarWright,#MovieReviews,#FilmPodcast,#SciFi,#Fantasy,#GeekCulture

Bobby Bones joins Movie Mike to talk about his Top 5 movies he saw in 2025, him going back to the movie theaters for the first time in years and are we seeing the death of movie stars? In the Movie Review, Mike and Kelsey talk about Hamnet starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal. It’s about William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, who celebrate the birth of their son, Hamnet. However, when tragedy strikes and Hamnet dies at a young age, it inspires Shakespeare to write his timeless masterpiece "Hamlet." Mike talks about why he thinks it’s in contention for best picture, Kelsey shares why the movie was better than the book and the effect a girl was crying uncontrollably in the theater had on their movie experience. In The Trailer Park, Mike talks about How to Make a Killing starring Glen Powell. The movie is about his character who is the heir to a multi-billion dollar fortune and will go to any lengths to grab everything he believes he deserves. Mike shares why he thinks we might be romanticizing murder a bit too much recently. New Episodes Every Monday!

Goldie Hawn made a 1991 thriller in which she plays a character that gets ... well, you know. "Deceived" featured our great Goldie getting gaslit, chased, and more. It was rare for Hawn to tackle the thriller genre and neither critics nor audiences quite knew what to do about it. But now, decades later, is this tale of duplicity worth another look? Does Hawn make a decent Scream Queen? And why is Adrienne and Jack's daughter so damn happy all the time?

Get access to this entire episode, the entire Denzember catalog, and all of our premium episodes by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.Denzember 2 continues with the return of Vulture Film Critic Bilge Ebiri and a spirited discussion of Russel Mulcahy's 1991 thriller Ricochet, a film of lean premise that takes its story to absolutely batshit places at every turn. With the ever-capable journeyman director Mulcahy at the helm, a sturdy script from Die Hard writer Steven E. de Souza, and committed performances from Denzel Washington and John Lithgow, the film finds a way to make every one of its scenes memorable by maintaining its ludicrous energy from start to finish and finding lurid thrills behind every corner.We begin with an appraisal of our experiences with Ricochet, and the delight of finding a film marketed as a boilerplate thriller doing everything it can to shock and disarm you. Then, we examine the deceptively intelligent plotting of the film, pitting Denzel's Assistant DA Nick Styles - an ambitious Black lawyer seeking opportunity in the justice system- against not just Lithgow's psycopathic murderer on a quest for revenge but also the collective biases of the media and elite centers of institutional power that readily see Styles as an interloper in their predominantly white spaces. Finally, we discuss the rare position of Denzel as a movie star, how he stands singularly as both an actor of profound versatility and one that inhabits an intoxicating Movie Star persona.Follow Bilge Ebiri on Twitter....Our Denzember theme some is "Funk" by Oppo.

On this week's Born to Watch, the boys dive headfirst into one of the great underappreciated modern buddy cop films with their "The Nice Guys" (2016) Review. Every so often, a newer movie sneaks into the sacred eighties and nineties space, demanding a full BTW breakdown, and this Shane Black masterpiece absolutely earns its spot. With Russell Crowe as the grizzled enforcer Jackson Healy and Ryan Gosling delivering one of the funniest performances of his career as hopeless private eye Holland March, this film feels like it could have been made in 1987 and left on a dusty VHS shelf for us to rediscover.Set in a grimy, neon-soaked 1977 Los Angeles, The Nice Guys blends noir, slapstick, mystery, porn conspiracies, corruption, and one of the great chemistry pairings of the last decade. As Whitey says, this flick is a chuckle fest. Not belly laughs all the way through, but constant, rolling moments of Gosling brilliance. From falling off balconies while holding a drink, to screaming in a toilet cubicle mid-assassination attempt, to the endless stream of quotable lines, Gosling proves he might be one of the most underrated comedic actors working today.The episode kicks off with the BTW boys returning to their familiar chaos, discussing missed recording sessions, RSI from too much… research, yacht rock, power ballads, and the Black Sorrows ruining Gow's weekend. Once the dust settles, the team dives deep into first watches, overs and unders, cinema memories, and how this movie became a cult favourite despite its disappointing box-office returns. Whitey even reveals he attended one of those old radio promo premieres and laughed himself stupid the entire time.Gow delivers a huge research effort, running through the Shane Black universe, returning stars Kim Basinger and Russell Crowe (who he argues could literally be Bud White 20 years later), and a brilliant breakdown of Gosling's Mickey Mouse Club origins, career breakout roles, and upcoming work in the new Star Wars project, Star Fighter. The boys also praise the incredible Angourie Rice, who holds her own with two Hollywood heavyweights and often steals the film.They unpack the bad reviews (including one from a critic who somehow thinks Crowe and Gosling have no chemistry), explode with joy over the bowling alley toilet scene, analyse the poor neighbour shot by Blueface, and debate how on earth police didn't arrive after John Boy unleashed the loudest gunfight in seventies LA history.There is the usual dose of Snorbs Report chaos, including an award-winning muff dive scene from "Below Her Mouth", some questionable memories from Morgz in London, references to Buck Rogers, pool tugging, and a Rick's Leash callback that nearly kills the room again. The Spotify Wrapped thanks, the voicemail from the foreign correspondent, and the pure BTW banter make this episode an all-timer.If you love this movie, you'll love this episode. If you've never seen The Nice Guys, this will send you straight to your couch to fix that mistake.Seen The Nice Guys? Think Gosling should only do comedy from now on? Slide into our socials and tell us your favourite quote. And if you haven't watched it yet, pause this episode, fix that, and then come back for the full Born to Watch treatment. #TheNiceGuys #BornToWatch #RyanGosling #RussellCrowe #ShaneBlack #MoviePodcast #BuddyCopMovies #FilmReview #CultClassics #AussiePodcasts

Mox kicks things off with his thoughts on Zootopia 2, while Izzy and Gibbs have fallen deep into Gloomhaven—cardboard suffering and tactical joy in equal measure.Izzy also compares Immortals Fenyx Rising to Breath of the Wild, confirming once again that Nintendo's shadow looms over us all. Gibbs brings a shoutout to Unavowed, the indie gem punching far above its weight.Then things take a turn into global insanity: Saudi Arabia's attempt to buy EA (because sure, why not), Iraqi “robots” that turned out to be… actual humans in suits, and an AI minister caught taking bribes—proving once more that dystopia isn't coming, it's already checking email.Finally, they dive into The Scarlet Letter (1995), a movie that took classic literature, tossed it in a wood chipper, and said “close enough.”Support us on Patreon!

QUIZ SHOW (1994) shouldn't work on paper: a quiet film about a 1950s game-show scandal, congressional hearings, and a rigged trivia show with no violence, no twist ending, and no flashy hook. And yet Robert Redford turns it into one of the most compelling American dramas of the decade: a deceptively sharp story about class, ambition, performance, and the birth of mass media.  Raycon audio products are up to 20% off this holiday season!

Apparently in movie history, there are only 2 actors to have 3 Number 1 films in a year. This sounds crazy! So Movie Mike investigates to find out if that is actually true and breaks down what actors he thinks have had the single best year run in movies from his research. In the Movie Review, Mike talks about Wicked: For Good. Now demonized as the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba lives in exile in the Ozian forest, while Glinda resides at the palace in Emerald City, reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, she'll need to reunite with Glinda to transform herself, and all of Oz, for good. Mike shares why he felt it could have been one movie, Arianda Grande and Cynthia Erivo difference in performances, how it compares to the Broadway musical but why he loves what the franchise has done for the movie theater experience. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Super Mario Galaxy starring Chris Pratt and Anya Taylor-Joy. He shares why he thinks about the new voice actors joining the cast and where it ranks on his list of most anticipated video game movies and his favorite Super Mario games. New Episodes Every Monday!
