  • The Favourite
    Dave and Michael talk about Yorgos Lanthimos's latest movie The Favourite. The name is appropriate because it is winning awards left and right. Dave and Michael tried to do more than gush, but this script is so delightful, and the three main actors so divine, it's hard not to love it. We also discussed whether we reccomend other Lanthimos films to a lover of The Favourite.

  • Sorry to Bother You

    This movie was adored by Dave and Michael.

    In a dystopian version of present-day Oakland, Calif., Cassius Green finds himself in desperate need of a job and becomes a telemarketer at RegalView. But what looks like just another dead-end gig leads Cassius down a bizarre rabbit hole where success depends on sounding white, selling out his friends and co-workers and helping insane CEO Steve Lift enslave the working class.

  • Eigth Grade

    Michael and Dave review Eighth Grade, the directorial debut from stand-up comic Bo Burnham and likely oscar contender.

    Eighth Grade is the story of Kayla Day, an awkward Eighth Grader who is about to finish middle school and enter high school. The year has been a pretty rough one for Kayla, and despite the faux confidence she shows via videos she posts on the internet (to presumably no one), she remains an isolated and awkward girl. The movie documents the last two weeks of her awful eight grade year as she struggles to navigate adolescence, boys, and modern America.
