✨ New Releases:
Lewis dives into Gregg Araki's provocative new comedy I Want Your Sex. Starring Cooper Hoffman and Olivia Wilde, does this raunchy battle of the generations have enough bite, or is it all tease and no payoff?

Evan heads to France for The Party's Over, the dark comedy that proved a crowd favourite at this year's French Film Festival. When a wealthy family's holiday idyll collides with class tensions and long-simmering resentments, who gets the last laugh? 

Lewis also explores Palestine 36, a powerful historical drama set during the British occupation of Palestine. By returning to the roots of a history that continues to shape the present, the film offers a searing reminder of how colonial violence, displacement and resistance reverberate through generations. With the current crisis casting its shadow over every frame, Palestine 36 is not simply a historical drama—it is an urgent, deeply relevant film that asks us to confront the forces behind today's suffering and to listen to the voices history has too often tried to silence. 

And finally, Lewis serves up Tony, Matt Johnson's intimate portrait of a young Anthony Bourdain. Rather than another cradle-to-grave biopic, this coming-of-age story focuses on one formative summer that helped shape one of the world's most beloved chefs and writers.

✨ New Releases:Evan heads down The End of Oak Street, where an ordinary suburban neighbourhood in 1982 Detroit is suddenly thrust back into the Jurassic era. Starring Ewan McGregor and Anne Hathaway, can modern suburban life survive when dinosaurs move into the neighbourhood, or is this one destined for extinction?

Gaby checks in to Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, the latest fever dream from renegade filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun. With little death, big death and plenty of existential angst on the itinerary, is Camp Miasma the holiday destination of the year, or one you'll be checking out of early?

✨ New Releases:Evan and Lewis swing into Spider-Man: Brand New Day and ask the question Marvel fans have been waiting years to answer: is this finally the grown-up Spider-Man we've been promised? After decades of films, reboots and multiversal mayhem, does Spidey's latest outing stand on its own eight legs, or do you need to have seen the previous 57 films to keep up?

Evan also reviews Bon Voyage Marie, now in cinemas after delighting audiences at the French Film Festival. Does this charming road trip with a disfunctional french family deserve a place on your itinerary?

Christopher Nolan’s mind-bending neo-noir Memento is returning to the big screen in a very different form: for one night only at Sydney’s City Recital Hall, Michael “Cavs” Cavanagh of King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard will perform an original live score alongside the film on Saturday August 29.

It’s the latest event from Hear My Eyes, the Melbourne-based collective reimagining cult and classic cinema through live music. With Nolan once again dominating the conversation with The Odyssey in cinemas, it feels like an ideal time to revisit the fractured, psychologically charged film that helped establish his singular voice.

Hear My Eyes founder and creative director Haydn Green joins me to discuss the project.

✨ *New Releases:*

Lewis and Evan report back from their IMAX odyssey with Christopher Nolan's latest cinematic epic. Is this a genuine moment in film history that demands to be seen on the biggest screen possible, or simply another blockbuster wrapped in Nolan-sized ambition?

We also step into the shadowy world of The Wizard of the Kremlin. Starring Paul Dano and Jude Law, this French political drama imagines the rise of Vladimir Putin through the eyes of fictional characters inspired by real events. Can fiction reveal deeper truths than fact, or does it risk blurring the line between history and myth?

🎥 *Have You Seen It?*

Last week Gaby challenged the team to revisit the 1989 Australian thriller Dead Calm. Starring the late, great Sam Neill alongside a young Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane. Does this tense tale of survival still hold audiences in its grip, or has time taken the wind from its sails?

Now it's Lewis's turn to issue the challenge. What forgotten gem, cult favourite or modern classic will he nominate for next week's Have You Seen It? If you'd like to join the conversation, consider this your homework.

✨ *New Release:* Obsession

YouTube filmmaker Curry Barker makes his feature debut with Obsession. After Hollywood came calling, his low-budget thriller became a surprise box office success. Now it's hitting streaming. Is the hype justified?

📺 *Stream It or Leave It:* The Bear

Evan and Lewis dig into the final season of Emmy-winning phenomenon The Bear. As Carmy and the crew face one last service at Chicago's most talked-about restaurant, will the series plate up a satisfying finale, or will the pressure of the kitchen finally boil over? Pull up a chair. Dinner is served.

🎥 *Have You Seen It?*

Last week the team tackled Sidney Lumet's Network, discovering that a film made nearly 50 years ago still has plenty to say about outrage, influence and our always-online culture. Just how prophetic was it?

Now it's Gaby's turn to issue the challenge and she has a timely, poignant and thrilling film for next week's Have You Seen It? If you'd like to join the conversation, consider this your homework.
