Welcome back to Moviewallas, your weekly dose of film reviews, movie news, and general banter – in theatres, on streaming, or in the back of an airplane. This week, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi take on just one movie, but it is a very big one: Christopher Nolan's sprawling, IMAX-shot adaptation of The Odyssey. Before setting sail, the team celebrates Rashmi's newly published children's book, Your Fluff Is Enough, now available through major booksellers. Learn more about Lenny the sheep, the Happy Wiggly farm, and the book's message of self-acceptance at happywiggly.com. Streaming Picks – “I Can't Find Anything to Watch…” Remarkably Bright Creatures – Netflix Yazdi recommends this warm adaptation of Shelby Van Pelt's novel, starring Sally Field as an aquarium custodian whose story unfolds with a little help from a remarkably observant octopus. India Sweets and Spices – Netflix Rashmi revisits this charming indie dramedy about family, community expectations, hidden histories, and a young woman returning home from college. Warrior – Prime Video Joe reaches back into the early Moviewallas archives for this powerful sports drama starring Tom Hardy, Joel Edgerton, and Nick Nolte. It may look like a conventional fighting movie, but its performances and emotional weight lift it far above the genre clichés. The Odyssey Christopher Nolan takes on one of the oldest and most influential stories ever told, with Matt Damon as Odysseus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Tom Holland as Telemachus, and a huge ensemble that includes Robert Pattinson, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, Lupita Nyong'o, Himesh Patel, Samantha Morton, and more. Shot entirely in IMAX, this is Nolan operating at his most ambitious: vast locations, practical filmmaking, mythological creatures, booming sound design, and a story that spans war, guilt, temptation, survival, and the long journey home. The team discusses the film's extraordinary technical achievement, its unconventional structure, Nolan's reinterpretation of the story's women, Matt Damon's take on Odysseus, and whether all that cinematic majesty comes with enough emotional warmth. They also debate whether Nolan's devotion to IMAX and fractured timelines strengthens the story or sometimes gets in its way. Despite a few reservations, everyone agrees that The Odyssey demands to be seen on the biggest screen possible. Like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoy spoiler-light movie discussions with strong opinions, mythology tangents, filmmaking analysis, and the occasional debate about whether “Dad” belongs in Ancient Greece.

SYNOPSIS:What if intelligence is far bigger than IQ, rational thought, or what we've been taught to measure? In this fascinating conversation, Ali sits down with coach and researcher Rachel Fell to explore neurodiversity as an expression of human biodiversity, challenging our assumptions about what it means to think, feel, perceive, and truly know. Together they venture beyond the limits of our culturally conditioned understanding of intelligence, revealing a far broader way of knowing through our lived experience as sensing bodies.Whether you identify as neurodivergent or simply long to feel more fully alive, this episode offers a refreshing invitation to rethink intelligence itself. From trauma, sensitivity, and nervous system regulation to movement, emotion, and the remarkable adaptability of the human body, Ali and Rachel explore how reclaiming our full-bodied intelligence may be one of the most important - and hopeful - frontiers of our time.To subscribe now, click hereTo be an angel to the podcast, click here To read more about the podcast, click here FOR MORE ALI MEZEY:Website: https://www.alimezey.comPersonal Geometry® and the Magic of Mat Work Course information:FREE Guided Body Mapping Taster: Heart/Sexuality SplitFive-films series (made by Ali Mezey) on Stephan Hausner's work with transgenerational influences on illnessFOR MORE RACHEL FELL:BIO: Rachel Fell is a coach, consultant and collaborator working at the intersections of neurodiversity, living intelligence, perception, and embodied awareness. For over six years she has worked with gifted, neurocomplex, sensitive and intense adults around the globe, co-exploring in the service of full-body intelligence and their unique paths to realization and fulfillment.

Confira:  A atriz Sally Field sentiu algo que todos desejamos sentir. Ao ganhar seu segundo Oscar, em 1985, disse: “Eu queria, mais do que tudo, ter o seu respeito. Na primeira vez não o tive, mas desta vez, sinto que o tenho. Não posso negar o fato de que gostam de mim. Sim, agora gostam de mim!”. Um eunuco etíope também se surpreendeu por ter sido aceito. Como gentio e eunuco, a entrada nos pátios internos do templo era-lhe negada (EFÉSIOS 2:11-12; DEUTERONÔMIO 23:1). No entanto, ele ansiava por ser incluído. Filipe o encontrou a caminho de Jerusalém quando voltava de outra peregrinação que, certa mente, deixou a desejar (ATOS 8:27). O etíope lia uma passagem do livro de Isaías, em que o Senhor prometia abençoar os eunucos que se apegassem à Sua aliança, dando-lhes “dentro dos muros [do templo] um memorial e um nome […] permanente” (ISAÍAS 56:4-5). Como isso ocorreria? Então, Filipe “anunciou-lhe as boas-novas a respeito de Jesus”, e o homem falou: “Veja, aqui tem água! O que me impede de ser batizado?” (ATOS 8:35-36). Ele pensava: Posso mesmo entrar? Este é o meu lugar? Filipe o batizou como sinal de que Jesus derrubara todos os muros (EFÉSIOS 2:14). Jesus acolhe e une todos os que abandonam o pecado e confiam nele. O homem “seguiu viagem cheio de alegria” (ATOS 8:39), pois finalmente achara seu lugar.  Por: MIKE WITTMER

Future Force (1989) Director: David A. Prior Cast: David Carradine, Dawn Wildsmith, Robert Tessier, William ZippThe Power Glove is on the cover. David Carradine is visibly drunk. The future is 1991. Welcome to Future Force — the Action International Pictures masterpiece that had one genuinely cool idea and then locked it in the trunk of a Jeep Cherokee for 80% of the runtime. This week on Dewey Pod Monster, John and Sean wade through a whole shit ton of denim, some truly baffling bounty hunter logic, and a third act so magnificently stupid it almost — almost — makes the rest of it worth it.In this episode, we discuss:The Glove Is Ready. David Carradine Is Not. — The Nintendo Power Glove from hell is literally on the movie poster, shoots cartoon lightning, and can rip the hood off a car. So why does Carradine reach for a revolver 90% of the time? We break down one of the great criminal undersells in low-budget action cinema history.Is He Drunk in This Shot? (Yes. Also the Next One.) — A scene-by-scene investigation into whether David Carradine was on the sauce during filming. Spoiler: the answer changes shot to shot, sometimes within the same scene. The dubbing gives it away. So do the eyes.Bounty Hunters Who Call Themselves Cops — The future of law enforcement is a Civilian Operated Police System run by schlubby dirtbags in denim vests, and the movie expects you to just roll with it. It's basically Escape From New York if nobody cared. We dig into the world-building that Future Force absolutely refuses to do.Watch Check the Movie — At under 84 minutes, Future Force somehow still manages to feel like it's aging you in real time. We discuss what makes a movie genuinely boring versus entertainingly bad — and whether this one earns its place in the garbage canon.We Also Talked About:Andre Is an Idiot (2025) (Netflix) — A surprisingly heartfelt documentary following a self-described idiot ad exec who gets a Stage 4 cancer diagnosis and decides to film the whole journey. Sean got personal. Strongly recommended.Widow's Bay (Apple TV+) — A horror comedy Sean has been watching in secret and then re-watching with his wife like he's never seen it. Season 2 just got announced. It's getting good.DBX 286S Mic Preamp/Channel Strip (Amazon) — Sean bought a professional mic preamp to make himself sound better on gaming calls with friends who absolutely do not care what he sounds like. He spent considerable time configuring it, troubleshooting a KVM switch, and engineering a solution to a problem he created. No regrets. Many settings.Smokey and the Bandit (1977) (Amazon)— John gave it a rewatch. Burt Reynolds drives fast, Sally Field escapes a wedding, and there's a brief song about Bandit getting laid. It holds up for what it is.Assault on Devil's Island (1997) (Youtube) — AKA Shadow Warriors. Hulk Hogan, Carl Weathers, Shannon Tweed, and a wig that deserves its own IMDb credit. Hogan is billed as Terry "Hulk" Hogan — yes, with the quotes. Yes, it's a TV movie rated R. Yes, John will probably watch the sequel.Living for the City (Podcast) (Apple Podcasts) — A Detroit music history podcast that John cannot stop recommending.

“The drama doesn't stop when the cameras do.” Join Ian, Liam & Kev for our 333rd episode as we step behind the scenes of daytime television, backstage rivalries, and gloriously oversized egos with Soapdish (1991). Megs isn't with us this week — she's reportedly accepted a surprise role as the long-lost twin sister of a character who was presumed dead after falling into a volcano. We expect her dramatic return during sweeps week. This week we discuss: Sally Field's performance as Celeste Talbert — charming, chaotic, insecure, and impossible not to root for. Is this one of the great comedy performances of the early '90s? The ensemble cast — Kevin Kline, Robert Downey Jr., Cathy Moriarty, Elisabeth Shue, Whoopi Goldberg. How does a film with this much talent avoid collapsing under its own weight? The satire of television production — petty feuds, ratings desperation, and the beautiful absurdity of soap-opera storytelling. Ian breaks down the film's narrative structure — twists, reveals, mistaken identities, and why the screenplay commits so fully to the bit. Liam explores whether the film works better as industry satire or outright farce — and whether those are even different things. Kev weighs in on the performances — who understands exactly what movie they're in, and who steals every scene they enter. The soap-opera influence — evil twins, secret children, miraculous survivals, and why audiences keep coming back for more. The “show vs tell” balance — does the film cleverly parody melodrama, or occasionally become the thing it's mocking? The surprisingly sharp commentary — beneath the silliness, what is the film actually saying about fame, aging, and relevance? Elisabeth Shue's role — innocent newcomer, plot device, or the emotional anchor holding the madness together? The ending — ridiculous, heartfelt, and exactly as over-the-top as it needs to be or low hanging fruit in a moment that's aged terribly? And finally, whether Soapdish is the Best Film Ever — or one of the most underrated ensemble comedies of its era.

Life comes at you fast. Apparently way faster after age 30. On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew dives headfirst into the terrifying realization that June is basically here already and somehow we're halfway through the year. One minute you're sneaking into clubs with fake confidence and terrible decisions… the next minute you're googling “why do my knees sound like microwave popcorn?” Welcome to adulthood, baby.This daily comedy show gets philosophical for roughly six minutes before immediately derailing into Burt Reynolds chest hair appreciation, Sally Field drama, and the deeply important question of whether Barry Gibb secretly teaches funk magic at Hogwarts.Also in today's chaos:Ozzy Osbourne's family is building an AI avatar version of Ozzy that could eventually talk to fans forever. Totally normal. Definitely not dystopian at all.Taylor Swift sends signed guitars to an 8-year-old girl after a paper airplane request goes viral.Russell Crowe explains why autograph seekers need to calm the hell down.The gang debates the difference between old-school celebrity roasts and today's “who can get canceled first” format.Roxette announces a tour and suddenly everyone's emotionally sprinting back to the 80s.Yellowstone spin-offs continue multiplying faster than raccoons behind a dumpster.TV's most shocking character deaths get revisited, reopening emotional wounds nobody asked for.And yes… someone accidentally thought Barry Gibb was dead. HE IS NOT. The Bee Gee king remains alive, tan, moisturized, and presumably shirt-unbuttoned somewhere in Miami.There's also a surprisingly passionate discussion about The Brady Bunch Movie, Vincent Price deserving his own St. Louis street, and why Travis Kelce drinking beers at a basketball game somehow became national news.Basically this episode has everything: existential dread, celebrity gossip, nostalgic movie tangents, weird AI conversations, TV spoilers, and middle-aged panic wrapped into one beautiful disaster of a daily comedy show.If you love sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity chaos, and hearing grown adults argue passionately about Burt Reynolds and Hogwarts funk classes, congratulations — this daily comedy show was made specifically for your damaged brain chemistry.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Marcellus may be just an octopus, but he's very observant of what's happening around him in the aquarium. Tova the cleaning lady is considering selling her home. And when she sprains her ankle, cash-strapped Cameron takes a temp job helping clean. Marcellus can sense the deep sadness in each of them. Tova has questions about her son's mysterious death at sea and Cameron has come to town to confront the rich father he never knew. But from inside his tank, Marcellus has the answers both are searching for. “Remarkably Bright Creatures” stars Sally Field, Lewis Pullman, and Alfred Molina. The Netflix film keeps some of the mystery and all of the emotion from the best-selling novel about an octopus who can see things in the people around him that they can't see for themselves. What unfolds is a gentle story about loss, second chances, and the strange ways we find our way home.

This week: Remarkably Bright Creatures, a quiet, thoughtful drama starring Sally Field as a grieving cleaning woman whose best confidant is a sentient, dying octopus named Marcellus.

What a terrific show I've got for you this week on BEHIND THE LENS as I get to introduce you to a wonderful British filmmaker, writer/director JOHN MICHAEL KENNEDY, who makes his narrative feature directorial debut with the mystery thriller, AN ENEMY WITHIN. Not only is this John's narrative feature directorial debut, but as I found out, this interview that you are about to hear was his very first interview, something I found surprising given the excellence of his short films. So this is a real treat for all of you – and for me. There is something deliciously venomous pulsing through AN ENEMY WITHIN, writer-director John Michael Kennedy's tightly coiled debut narrative feature. Part Gothic chamber thriller, part psychological standoff, part family bloodsport, Kennedy constructs a sharply staged mystery where inherited privilege, buried resentment, emotional insecurity, and self-delusion become loaded weapons aimed squarely at everyone trapped inside a sprawling English estate. And the beauty of Kennedy's film lies in the fact that virtually nobody inside that house deserves our trust. Written & Directed By John Michael Kennedy, AN ENEMY WITHIN stars William Moseley, Patrick Baladi, Kim Spearman, Alexander Lincoln, Tristan Gemmill, Kate Isset, Toyin Omari-Kinch, Frances Wilding, Mollie Dorman, and Harrison Daniels. The film's cinematographer is Lorenzo Levrini, the editor is Gustav Lindquist, and the composer is Caleb Blood. A couple of other films I briefly want to mention to you today that are absolute "Must See" films. First is THE SHEEP DETECTIVES, which is a tale that follows George Hardy (Hugh Jackman), a shepherd who loves to read murder mysteries to his sheep, never suspecting that they can understand him. When George is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the sheep decide to solve the crime themselves, even if it means leaving their meadow for the first time and facing the fact that the human world isn't as simple as it appears in books. The other film you must see, also based on a novel, is REMARKABLY BRIGHT CREATURES on Netflix, starring Sally Field as an older widow named Tova, whose life is changed by a friendship with a giant Pacific octopus named Marcellus, and Cameron, a new-in-town employee looking for his father, played by Lewis Pullman. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Well, there's no plural in this because it's only one o. 02:43Speaker 2 Well, this octopus seems like he is he or she he muscles, is very smart. So this we have an octopus that would guess who would win the fief for World Cup. 02:52Speaker 3 Yes, so there's all these videos of octopus octopi that. 02:56Speaker 2 Go viral and she doesn't take it seriously. 02:59Speaker 1 But okay, well I'm pretty sure that's what it is. But the woman who wrote. 03:03Speaker 3 This book got inspired by one of those viral videos of the octopus doing something smart. She was like, oh, they're so smart, and then she like wrote this book and there's. 03:10Speaker 1 Parts that are from the octopus perspective. 03:12Speaker 2 They love crazy imaginations. I know, I watched that video and I was like, cool, that made like a massive career out of writing this, Like she's a. 03:21Speaker 3 Seller book, actually great character inspoke, So there's little parts of book that are from the octopus perspective. And he's quite like, I'm sure it's a good book. He said that he's quite disdainful of humans. He's always like, I don't know, he's always kind of like looking down on them. 03:36Speaker 1 It's kind of comic relief in the book club. 03:38Speaker 3 People were divided over whether he's very annoying or very lovable. 03:42Speaker 1 Ah, but anyway. 03:44Speaker 3 It premiered at Sundance earlier this year and was very well received, very warm reception, so I'm very excited to see it. Sally's Field is playing Toba, and Lewis Pullman is in it. He's playing Cameron, who's this other character, Who's this. 03:56Speaker 1 Guy who's like thirty. Honestly, he really annoyed me in it. 03:58Speaker 2 He's just kind of like thirty. 04:00Speaker 1 He's just trying to like, he just has nothing figured out. He just has he's always like. 04:05Speaker 2 Him a break, he's down thirty everything's always breaking. 04:08Speaker 1 His camper van's always breaking. I think it's it is. 04:12Speaker 3 If you read it, you do mean everything goes wrong and it's sort of his fault and you just get it together cameraon. 04:18Speaker 1 But anyway, he's also a lead character. So very excited to see it. I think it'll be quite a heartwarming watch. It's quite emotion I. 04:24Speaker 2 Think, do you think I should read the book before I watch it? 04:27Speaker 3 Yeah? Maybe if you can be bothered. But it's going to come out tonight, so I don't know if you want to be part of the cultural movement, and yeah, maybe I'll just watch the movie. 04:34Speaker 1 Maybe just watch it. 04:35Speaker 3 So it's out on Netflix, I believe around five pm tonight, remarkably Brian creatures. 04:40Speaker 2 I'm excited. 04:42Speaker 3 Okay, So I went to see a movie this week where I have to say, I haven't been to a movie where the atmosphere in the audience was like this crazy for a while. It was the Billie Eilish Hit Me Hard and Soft tour, like the live concert experience in three D. 04:58Speaker 1 The day of a show, it just feels like any day at all. 05:02Speaker 4 I just feel like I'm like going to hang out with my friends. 05:05Speaker 2 Here I go. 05:08Speaker 4 To see the scrapes on my hands that is from the fans. I want to feel like it's me and them. You love that. 05:20Speaker 1 I love that. It was really good. 05:24Speaker 3 And I've never gone to a stadium tour of hers, like I didn't go to this tour. I've seen her at festivals when she was on the way up, like it grew in the moon and stuff, but. 05:31Speaker 1 I have never cared. 05:32Speaker 3 I've never seen her well after this, I really want to because she's amazing. I feel like I went to the concert because the crowd were like super fans, so everyone was there dressed in their like caps and kind of like dressed like her and were full like singing along. It was kind of like with the Ears tour with Taylor Swift, how people would go down to the front and like marsh in. 05:51Speaker 2 The like was there a marsh in your cinema? 05:53Speaker 1 There was a mosh in my cinema. 05:55Speaker 3 And the guy next to me was honestly, he brought a lot of the vibes like I wish I could recommend this movie. Sitting next to this particular man, he was like every time she did like a vocal run, he'd be like, yeah, he's kind of like do it along, and then he'd follow along every now and then be like, WHOA, I killed that anyway, So he was very invested. Would you consider yourself a Billie Eilish fan? 06:16Speaker 2 I would consider myself like, yeah, I would say I'm a fan of her music, but I don't know much about her as a person, and I don't think I would like when she came to Sydney. I think it was like a year ago she came to Sydney. I wasn't a big fan enough then to be like, Okay, I'm going to fork out for a concert ticket because concert tickets are expensive. 06:36Speaker 1 They are really expensive. 06:37Speaker 2 As you guys mentioned on the spill, this is. 06:40Speaker 1 A prime example of it. So I would say the same. 06:43Speaker 3 I really like a music, definitely not like a hardcore fan. So I went into it being like, oh am I going to be like a big enough fan to really enjoy this movie. But I really did. And I will say there were probably only like two songs I didn't recognize, like she has so many bangers. 06:56Speaker 2 Yeah, just keep going, and she's an excellent performer and live singer. 07:00Speaker 3 Because she obviously has so many deep emotional, moody songs. Me and my friend who went, We were like, whoa kind of like, you know, feels right now, but then it will suddenly be like bad guy and the whole cinema goes crazy. And it's obviously such a good way to get to experience that if you didn't go to the concert as well. I was thinking before the only concert films I can remember seeing other than this are the Eras Tour and then like never say never, the justin Peoble. 07:21Speaker 2 One, Oh yeah, oh did you ever you know which one I went to which when I was like quite young, like I was in primary school. The Hannah Montana concert me Miley Cyrus. 07:33Speaker 1 I did actually watch that too, and that was crazy. 07:36Speaker 2 Every time one of the Jonas brothers came on screen, every young girl in the cinema would just scream ahead off And I was like, because I was quite a mature young person, so I was like, they're not really there, They're not there. 07:48Speaker 3 I'm so glad you were there to clarify that I was such a looser. 07:51Speaker 2 I was like scolding these kids my age. 07:53Speaker 1 Yeah, like, thank thanks everyone. 07:56Speaker 3 So I feel like this one was different to sort of like the Ears to where it's just the concert films because they had these little behind the scenes interview bits with her as well on the day of the concert, and she it was done in collaboration with James Cameron, like he was one of the directors. 08:10Speaker 2 Oh wow, kind of friend. 08:11Speaker 1 I'm like in between avatars. 08:12Speaker 2 Yes, he's I need to show people the length of my work, not like blue people. 08:17Speaker 1 I'm more than that. 08:18Speaker 2 I'm more than avatar. 08:19Speaker 3 And the way it's shot is great, like the way she has such hypnotic eyes and the way she sort of stares down the camera. 08:25Speaker 2 And the way she does her makeup. I remember one of her I think it was Vogue where they do like the celebrities and how they do their makeup, and like her video went completely viral because of the way she does the eyeliner is so intense. 08:36Speaker 3 They show that in this too, where she sort of tweaks it on the end. She does all her hair and makeup for the tour herself. 08:42Speaker 2 That's crazy. And she's so good at makeup because her face always looks beat. 08:47Speaker 3 Yeah, she looked really great, and she talked about some really interesting things in the interview bits that he did with her, so she sort of explained her reasoning for why she dresses in the kind of basketball jersey and like baggy shorts for the concert, and she sort of spoke about how there's not that many female pop stars who don't do the whole like dress up and look really sexy kind of thing. Obviously we see that more with like Taylor Swift, Sabrina carp and to take and prey all those people, and she was like, I just didn't really want to have to do that because when I was growing up watching rap artists and they would just run around the stage being so comfortable and free, I just wanted to be like that, and she didn't see other women doing that, so she really wanted to be that for like the next generation of girls. 09:24Speaker 2 That's so cute. 09:25Speaker 1 Yeah, So I thought. 09:26Speaker 3 They showed really interesting things like that, a lot of interviews with the fans, and then also sort of showed how she is as a creative, like she's really involved in the lighting, she's really involved in everything to do with the stadium more than just like getting up there and singing. And then one thing I thought was really cute is that every town that they go to, they kind of connect with a rescue dog center and they bring in dogs for the crew and the other band members to like. 09:49Speaker 1 Have us like little therapy dogs and they play with them. 09:51Speaker 2 Shut up, why do we do that here? 09:53Speaker 1 And we should bring that. 09:55Speaker 2 We just had a dog in our studio just sleeping over there. 09:57Speaker 1 I think the podcast would be better. 09:58Speaker 2 Yeah, let's put that in our next like quarterly review. I want to do this, improvements to me for yourself, And I was like, improvements for everyone else bringing dogs. 10:10Speaker 3 So yeah, Billy Eilish hit me hard and soft. The tour live, it's out in cinema's now. Probably a good one if you have kids as well. I feel like all the like there were a lot of children there and they were really getting into it too, so. 10:20Speaker 2 Yeah, good family experience. Okay, I need to talk about a movie that I saw over the weekend. I was very lucky. I got to go to the Sydney screening of this movie. And when you know it's a weekend screening, it means there's going to be a lot of kids there. Because kids can come out in the weekend. 10:39Speaker 1 They're like vampires at night on the weekend. 10:41Speaker 2 We never see them throughout the week. We only see them on the weekend. So I went to the screening much similar to you, chaotic crowd, vibe vibes, a lot of children. And I was sitting next to Tina Burke and a few of us, and someone was like, Oh my god, look at all those kids over there. Look how many there are. And I was like, Oh my god, that's crazy. And then I realized those kids, all of them belonged to exact producer Georgie Page, all eight all millions of kids. There's like a million kids in that theater. Whoever went to Sheep Detectives in the weekend? All those kids you saw, all Georgie Pages kids, every single one of them. It was such a fun movie. Oh sorry, it's called Sheep Detectives. I should have lived with that. 11:22Speaker 1 The movie you've been talking about, a wee movie. 11:25Speaker 3 Of the year. 11:26Speaker 2 I reckon. I think Tina Burke agrees with me. Georgie, do you agree with me? She says, best movie ever. 11:33Speaker 5 If there's one secret to happiness in. 11:35Speaker 3 My life, it's taking care of the kindest creatures on earth, sheep. 11:42Speaker 4 I'm keeping them well fed, well groomed, and. 11:45Speaker 2 Each day read out loud to them mysteries who've done it? I know who the killer was. 11:51Speaker 1 Our shepherd was murdered and we shall solve the crime. I am George Hardy's lawyer. 11:57Speaker 5 He wrote and will in the night Time stories that people and the will are always the suspects. 12:01Speaker 2 That man had nothing. 12:03Speaker 1 Well, actually there is thirty million dollars and we have our motive. 12:09Speaker 2 It is so good. I regret not bringing more people because I want everyone to watch this. 12:15Speaker 3 You're like, why didn't they shut down the street at the State Theater like for dettlewors Prada. 12:19Speaker 2 I actually reckon, Hugh Jackman should have done like a big premiere here, Like, the reception for this movie is huge? 12:25Speaker 1 So is he in it quite a lot? 12:27Speaker 2 He's yes, he's in trailer. 12:29Speaker 1 Didn't make it seem that way. 12:30Speaker 2 Because his character dies very early on in the movie, which is also shown in the trailer, but he comes back during like flashbacks and stuff like that. So he's in like the whole length of the movie as an actor. Okay, but it's the highest rated movie he's ever done. 12:43Speaker 1 That's so unfortunate for him. What about the Greatest Showman? I thought that the guy's literally Wolverine. 12:52Speaker 2 Sorry, Hugh, but it is what it is anyway, sheep detective what it's about? So yes, Hugh Jackman is I would say the main character. He plays a shepherd who owns like this flock of sheep, and they're not like you know how when you see a flock of sheep, how they all look the same. 13:08Speaker 4 Not. 13:10Speaker 2 I think he like collects him throughout his life, so they're all like kind of like sheep who have just all come together. Anyways, he loves his sheep so much. She lives in just like a little caravan on his like field. And every night he reads detective stories to his sheep, and they say and he thinks he's just having a good time reading stories to his sheep, and then when he goes inside, it's shown to the audience that the sheep actually understand everything he's been saying, and they get really into the detective stories. His I was gonna say, the main sheep, his main sheep, the top sheep. His name is Lily. 13:46Speaker 1 Oh, it's a woman. It's a woman. 13:48Speaker 2 And she is played by Julia Louis Dreyfuss. Oh, very very good. She is like so well done. The other main character sheep is Sebastian and he's played by Brian Cranson, also really well done. 14:00Speaker 3 They played by just the voice, the voice voice. They're not there the voice. The sheep are very much Cgi sheep, and they're very very cute anyway, So what happens. Hugh Jackman murdered. I forgot his real name in the movie. We're calling him Hugh Jackman. 14:17Speaker 2 But you're not spoiling because he's in the trailer. It's in the trailer. He gets murdered, and then the sheep decide to investigate his murder because they know so much about murder because he's been reading them all these detective stories. 14:28Speaker 1 It's almost like he knew it was gonna happen. 14:30Speaker 2 Ah nice, And it's really hard for the sheep because they've never left their flock and they've never left the field, so even just crossing a road, they've never seen a road before. The Steaks couldn't be high of the sheep leaving their field to get into the town because the stupid humans don't know what they're doing. Nicholas Braun is the main police guy and the only police guy of the town. He has no idea what he's doing. He's busy taking orders from Emma Thompson and she's just the lawyer. She has no idea what she's doing, so the have to keep giving the humans clues so they can help investigate Hugh Jackman's death. 15:05Speaker 3 Do you know there's actually a lot of parallels to this in the Octopus book, because the octopus. 15:08Speaker 1 Helped solve a mystery. I forgot to say that. 15:10Speaker 3 So there's a running commentary that humans need to listen to animals more. 15:14Speaker 2 Okay, whatever, No, it's true. I think humans need to listen to animals more. And in the end, they do listen to them. I mean not physically. They still can't understand what they're saying, but they do listen to them. But there was a lot of good analogies in this, So, like the sheep do this thing where they all come down to three to forget what they just experience. So it's all about like kind of like living in your trauma, not always like pushing things aside and trying to forget it. 15:41Speaker 1 So what but count down to three to forget what they're just seeing because they were. 15:44Speaker 2 Like, Hugh Jackman just died. Everyone, let's forget this. This was so terrible. One, two, three, And then they forget it. But then they were like, no, we deserve to remember Hugh Jackman. He did so much for our life and for our flock. But then, but then I looked into this, this is not a thing that sheep do. Sheep have actually very good memories and remember everything. 16:02Speaker 3 Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't expect so that was kind of a PLoP hole in the movie. 16:06Speaker 1 I thought this was steeped. 16:07Speaker 2 In real sheep yess. Yes, what is a real sheep? Fact though, is that there's a cute little lamb in the movie that's like really like muddy and dirty, and the other sheep want nothing to do with it because it's the winter lamb and usually when lambs are born in the winter gets rejected by. 16:24Speaker 1 The flock so they die. 16:26Speaker 2 Yeah, I mean, this one didn't die spoilers, but like Hugh Jackman's the only one that really loves it, and he died. He dies, And now who's gonna love the lamb? 16:36Speaker 1 I'm gonna want you to forget that? 16:38Speaker 4 What? 16:39Speaker 2 Two? 16:39Speaker 4 Three? 16:40Speaker 1 What lamb? 16:41Speaker 2 What is this place? Where am I? But anyway, okay, I do want to say that this movie, although it's like marketed towards kids and family, it is such a good movie and it's also has really deep themes that I didn't expect from a kid's movie, kind of like int like where like you know how adults like draw so many like parallels to it. It's one of those really good movies. It's also much sader than what I expected. And because the whole thing's in a mystery, it's kind of like a Sherlock's Home vibe where you're like trying to guess who the killer is A body kid next to me guessed it in two seconds. 17:19Speaker 1 We like, don't spoil it. 17:21Speaker 2 Well, the person came on screen and the kid next to me was like, that person did it, And I was like, kids are so stupid. And then as I was watching, I was like, oh, maybe they're just I think that might be And then yeah, that eight year old kid next to me just spoiled the whole movie. But you know what, kids are smart. I guess. 17:38Speaker 3 Well, it's really good though, when they do those movies that parents can also genuinely enjoy, not just like you know some like Duck. 17:44Speaker 4 Well. 17:45Speaker 2 Everyone from our team were just like full adults. We didn't besides Georgie, we all bought other adult people. 17:50Speaker 3 You guys decided Saturday, this is what I'm doing and watching some sheeps of. 17:54Speaker 2 The Murder and I'm so glad I did. I really want to watch it again. 17:57Speaker 1 Now you have really sold it. I want to see it now. 17:59Speaker 2 Oh my god, it's so good. Anyway, that's sheep detectives in cinemas. Yes, you can take your family, but I promise you you will enjoy it more than your kids. 18:07Speaker 1 Thank you so much for listening to this spill. 18:09Speaker 3 We have another super exciting episode dropping this afternoon, a brutally honest review of a film that you absolutely don't. 18:16Speaker 1 Want to miss. Emma and Laura are unpacking all of it. 18:19Speaker 3 This fill is produced by me Minishiuslawn with a video production by Michael Keene and we'll see you this afternoon. 18:25Speaker 5 Bye see ya, Mamma.

I'm convinced that the screenplay for this film was generated by AI. Of course, I have no proof for that, but 80 for Brady is so completely bizarre that if AI wasn't involved, I'd like to know what the filmmakers were smoking. It misses the mark at every turn and has so neglected (ignored? forgotten?) the fundamentals of storytelling that not even four legends of stage and screen can save it.
