Oh you have a job, you say? Well, is it Italian? Because this one is… Battling it out in an ultimate action film head to head is The Italian Job (1969) and Fast Five (2011)! Shooting it out in the red corner first is one of Britain's favourite comedy capers.

In The Italian Job, a recently released Cockney criminal forms a gang to steal a gold shipment from the streets of Turin. Will they get the job done?

It’s okay. don’t worry. You haven’t travelled back in time, it really is another episode of Clash! We’re back and today we’re talking all things About Time.

I had a joke about time travel but you guys didn’t like it… This week getting ready to fight it out is The Time Traveller’s Wife (2009) and About Time (2013)!

Up first is The Time Traveller’s Wife, where we see Rachel McAdams fall in love with a time traveller… and funnily enough, it’s almost exactly like the plot of About Time. What does Rachel McAdams see in time travellers that we don’t?!

We’re back again with a McDonagh, Farrell and Gleeson cocktail supreme – this time in the shape of  The Banshees of Inisherin (2022). A friendship between two Irish men abruptly comes to an end, much to the surprise of Farrell's character and leading to alarming consequences for both of them.

It’s already cleaning up this awards season, but can it win the ultimate title and be the winner of this week’s Clash?

In Bruges tells the tale of a hitman and his partner who are awaiting orders from their ruthless boss in (you guessed it) Bruges, Belgium. But they’re guilt-stricken after a job goes wrong and it’s the last place they want to be…

It’s an American Spy Movie Battle and boy are we ready to go undercover with these movies! We have True Lies and Mr & Mrs Smith in a head to head this week. 

True Lies (1994) follows the trials and tribulations of a double-life spy trying to balance his responsibilities at home and at work. I spy *wink wink* a brilliant Clash pairing!

This week at Clash HQ, we’re discussing movies that follow tortured artists trying to perfect their skills. In the blue corner we had Black Swan (2010), and in the red corner today we have Whiplash (2014)!

Miles Teller plays a talented young drummer starting out at a music conservatory, where he is mentored by a teacher who won’t let his students give anything less than 100% to their art. Drumroll please…

The penultimate Febru-fanny Clash is upon us. What better way to finish it off than by pitting two modern classics against each other: it's Black Swan (2010) vs Whiplash (2014)!

We start with Black Swan, where Natalie Portman plays a committed ballerina who is battling to maintain her sanity after securing the lead role in a production of Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake". Will she make the final dance?
