THE MOVIE CREW PODCAST

Episode 454: The Crew’s doing their best maniacal laugh while watching Russell Mulcahy’s The Shadow. This masked vigilante character started on the radio instead of comic books, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t cinematic. The sets and costumes look fantastic, really embracing style over substance. It’s too bad it bombed at the box office killing the franchise before it started. The Crew discusses…

Episode 453: The Crew’s taking flight with snazzy jetpacks while watching Joe Johnston’s The Rocketeer. This 90’s superhero soars on the big screen thanks to some wonderful performances, truly great effects (that still look great today), and a lovingly recreated 1930s that’s a feast for the eyes. Its a real shame this film didn’t start the trilogy the filmmakers wanted. The Crew discusses…

Episode 452: The Crew’s wearing their best yellow hat and coat while watching Warren Beatty’s Dick Tracy. This comic strip adaptation is the very definition of over the top, especially from Al Pacino. The photography and production design are stylized gold, but unfortunately the main star and his leading lady (Warren Beatty and Madonna) are the weakest parts and take up so much screen time. The Crew discusses…

Episode 451: The Crew’s out of town working this week, so Brian and his wife review some film adaptations/reimagining/remakes of old video games and cartoons. Mortal Kombat II is definitely the best of the franchise and its nice to see a fighting tournament film return to the big screen. Masters of the Universe is way better than the original 80’s film, but we did feel the runtime. The Crew discusses…

The Masters of the Universe review starts around 40 minutes.

Episode 450: The Crew’s feeling the anxiety of unjust accusations while watching Stanley Kubrick’s Paths of Glory. This anti-war film will give you second thoughts about joining any military. The tension is ever present, even after the genre switches from war film to courtroom drama. It’s Kubrick’s fourth film but his first real masterpiece. The Crew discusses…

Episode 449: The Crew’s shaving their heads while watching Ridley Scott’s G.I. Jane. This 90’s film was unfairly judged when it came out, winning a Razzie for Demi Moore. But Demi delivers a tough and fun performance, and Ridley surrounds her with his expertly crafted shots and a supporting cast that’s game. This film needs to be rediscovered by film buffs. The Crew discusses…

Episode 448: The Crew’s feeling the red light claustrophobia while watching Tony Scott’s Crimson Tide. This 1995 sub film has a wonderful all male cast, but Washington and Hackman steal the show as the disagreeing Captain and XO. There are plenty of sub cliches and wonderful action scenes, but the highlights are the characters weighing the pros and cons of launching a nuke without all the information. The Crew discusses…

Episode 447: The Crew’s lost in the Gosling rizz while watching Phil Lord and Christopher Miller’s Project Hail Mary. This perfectly casted film pulls on the heartstrings with a faceless alien friendship. No giant E.T. eyes here. And with a runtime over 2 hours, the pace never slows. The Crew discusses…

Episode 446: The Crew’s seeing double while watching Duncan Jones’ Moon. Duncan Jones exploded into the indie filmmaking scene with one of the best directorial debuts. The low budget (5 million) is hardly noticeable, the camera setups and pace show the passion of a younger filmmaker but with the sure-footedness of an experienced one. The Crew discusses…

Episode 445: The Crew’s lack of oxygen may have something to do with forgetting to breathe while watching Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity. This 2013 box office hit was one of a few 3D movies that audiences ate up. The 3D really added to the story and the suspense. And this film is suspenseful, living up to the clichéd phrase “it’s a rollercoaster ride”. The Crew discusses…
