| 25. April, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Imagine this podcast takes place in a car.

This week, Patches survives the barrage of studio movies (The Other Woman, Brick Mansions and The Quiet Ones) to join David for a double-serving of arthouse reviews. First, the guys shift into drive for a look at Locke, Tom Hardy’s one-man show from writer-director Steven Knight. Then its on to ‎Jeremy Saulnier’s Blue Ruin, the methodical revenge thriller that’s been stirring up the festival circuit since last May. This, a brief conversation on poop jokes, and your lightning round question answers on this week’s FITWR.

Covering Under The Skin, Rio 2, Joe, Draft Day and Only Lovers Left Alone

This week, Katey is out and Da7e is in, joining Review regulars Matt and David as they do everything in their power to not talk about The Raid 2 expanding. That’s right, this week’s review segment is obsessed with the multiple layers of Jonathan Glazer lyrically cryptic Under The Skin. Then, it’s a catch-all of other things you could see this weekend, with Patches and David talking NFL drama in  Draft Day, Patches and Da7e on David Gordon Green’s Joe, David on Jim Jarmusch’s Only Lovers Left Alone, then Patches warns all against Rio 2. All that, plus YOUR favorite unconventional horror villains!

Review – A Podcast In The Wall Where The Boys And Girls Can See It All (Parts 1 &2)
| 21. March, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

SSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXX!

This week we’ve decided it’s finally time to share our deep feelings about fly fishing, as we review Lars von Trier’s new film Nymphomaniac (or two new films, Nyphomaniac Vol. 1 and Vol. 2., depending on who you ask). Is it a proper Socratic dialogue with a lot of big ideas on its mind? Is it remotely sexy with all that flesh on display? Is Shia LaBeouf’s British accent the crime of the century or merely intolerable? All that, plus your answers to this week’s lightning round question about movies featuring puppets.

Review – Vacancy At The Grand Budapest Manger
| 28. February, 2014

REVIEW_GRAPHIC

Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel and God’s Son of God!

This week we travel to the East, from Europe’s Republic of Zubrowka to the promised land of Jerusalem. First, Katey, Patches, and David give an early view of Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel, a film that might rank among the director’s best. Then FITWR-regular Jordan Hoffman prays movie-going audiences will avoid Son of God, an adaptation of History Channel’s Bible mini-series that chronicles the life of the the late Jesus F. Christ. Plus, we hijack your lighting round answers on film’s best hijackings.
