Critics w/o Credentials

The month of March brings about two very distinct Ghibli films; Kiki’s Delivery Service and Only Yesterday, with the first being a beloved Ghibli classic by many. The group discusses the lovable simplicity of Kiki’s Delivery Service and how that can lead to a wonderfully stress-free watching experience.

Devin and Chris reach the penultimate film with 2002’s, When In Rome, which does not go very well. Still, Dev and Chris manage to find some things that are funny and interesting enough to discuss while also looking hopefully toward the remaining Olsen Twin movie yet to come.

Devin and Chris are GETTING THERE as they discuss the confusing Olsen twins movie that appears as if the plot is given up several minutes into the movie. Still, Dev and Chris find fun things to point out before looking at the movies left to watch in the Olsen filmography.

Kevin and Chris discuss their Oscar reactions after a very ”safe” ceremony, how the first episodes of Ted Lasso’s 3rd season are setting up for its finale, Scream 6’s ability to help move the franchise into a better position, and much more!

Chris and Kevin go through each category predicting who think will take home the golden statue this Sunday.

Devin and Chris continue through the Olsen Twin filmography, this time with one that seems suspiciously like a glorified vacation captured on film and pushed out to the masses. The duo breaks down things they liked (and a lot they didn’t) about this Olsen Twin entry.

Chris and Kevin discuss the Michael B. Jordan/Johnathan Majors lead Creed 3, Guy Ritchie’s latest movie finally being released in theaters, Jesus Revolution advancing the faith-based film quality, Chris Rock’s latest Netflix special and MORE!

Devin and Chris continue through the Olsen Twin filmography this time focusing on the 1999 made-for-tv-movie, Switching Goals. The duo both acknowledge that this movie should only be about 20min and yet they stretched it for another hour beyond that. Why? Your guess is as good as theirs.

Kev and Chris discuss the feelings that Cocaine Bear left them with, how the Oscar nominee watches are fairing for Kevin and what he has left to target, comfort watches that offer mental vacations, and much more!

Meant to be a double-feature release alongside Grave of the Fireflies, My Neighbor Totoro offers Chris, Chloe and Sam a change of pace in their discussion as this film offers a much more light-hearted story and yet still feels incredibly personal (similar to Fireflies). 

We are in our second month of this year-long series and while the group has been able to watch some absolutely amazing movies it still feels as if the best is yet to come!
