We end the March of Cruise with Tom taking a darker turn in both Magnolia (1999) and Collateral (2004), showing a side of his acting that we have rarely seen. The Academy acknowledged one of these performances, but come and find out if we think it was the right one.Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

After finishing up Mission: Impossible March, we still needed more Tom Cruise in our lives, so we watched two of his Sci-Fi flicks with Oblivion (2013) and Edge of Tomorrow (2014). Cruise. Watch. Repeat.Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

We complete our mission with Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (2015) and Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018). And while these films are an improvement on the spy genre, there are still some areas that need work. We want to see more comedy, better use of big name actors, and resistance to typical movie tropes. Listen and let us know what you think.Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

The mission continues for us in Mission Impossible March. We discuss JJ Abrams' influence on the franchise and the good luck he brings, with Mission: Impossible III (2006) and Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011). The formula is there and we can see the franchise starting to round into form. Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to join us for Mission Impossible March. We revisit the start of the franchise with Mission: Impossible (1996) and Mission: Impossible II (2000). We can see the budding of a successful formula, although not all of the pieces are cohesive yet. Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

Is a critic's bad, really THAT bad? We watched three films that had between 30 and 39% ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. They were: Man on Fire (2004), Smokin' Aces (2006), and Hot Rod (2007). While they have their warts, which we discuss, these are pretty good films. Plus, hear about the time Brade squared up against Rampage Jackson.Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]

We keep the Oscar trend going with Nightmare Alley (2022), the latest from Guillermo Del Toro. Was it as unique as Del Toro's previous work? Does the film noir aspect contribute to the enjoyment...or hinder it?

We can't get enough of one of the rangiest actors in the game, Benedict Cumberbatch. We watched two of his Oscar-nominated performances in The Imitation Game (2016) and The Power of the Dog (2022). Both are critically acclaimed, but one is better than the other.

Making our cases for Dads of the Year, we all took our kids to see Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). We talk about the kids' IMAX experience, how the previous films and the MCU helped shape this film, and where the franchise will go next.

Open your eyes, sheeple! We watched the satirical view of our current society, with the latest from Adam McKay, Don't Look Up (2022). Many of the ideas hit closer to home than even intended. We talk about the cast, the team behind the scenes, and why did he charge them for snacks?Subscribe, rate and review:Apple Podcasts: Our Film FathersSpotify: Our Film FathersGoogle Podcasts: Our Film FathersStitcher: Our Film FathersAmazon Music: Our Film Fathers-----------------------Follow us:Instagram: @ourfilmfathersTwitter: @ourfilmfathersEmail: [email protected]
