Reel Film Nerds

Hi everybody and welcome to the Reel Film Nerds latest pod.  Today the guys discuss a fun and crazy Legacy Cast, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro.  The guys talk about journalism, Hunter S. Thompson, Tobey Maguire, and lots of trivia about the film.  Don’t worry they get off topic too.  Mike just keeps pushing a Moviepass discussion and Matt might have finally given up the good fight and dropped his subscription.    

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a wild film with an insane and drug riddled premise.  The acting is amazing, the sets are fantastic, and it is shot beautifully.  The guys once again agreed on a rating.  Matt and Mike both give Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 4 out of 5 Reels.  What do you think, is Matt really as dark as he sounds and should he stop reading Marvel Comics and start reading the dark and gritty world of DC?  Wait hold on we talk about movies here, so what if he is dark? 

Next Tuesday the guys will be talking about Jennifer Garner’s action revenge thriller Peppermint.  It is nice to see her getting work again outside of the Capital One commercials!  Lastly don’t forget we are still looking for suggestions for Episode #50 which is coming up SUPER fast.  Email us your thoughts and suggestions or just email us to say hello.  Chat at you next week!

Hello fellow movie nerds and welcome to another incredible episode of the Reel Film Nerds podcast!  Today we talk about a very serious and incredible drama based on a true story, Operation Finale starring Sir Ben Kinglsey and Oscar Isaac.  The film is based on the hunting down and capture of escaped Holocaust mastermind Adolph Eichmann.  Your hosts do stray off topic a bit especially Matt like always but they do their best to steer the review back on course.  The guys talk about why history is important, college, and World War 2 based movies The Darkest Hour and Dunkirk.  This is one of the more serious podcasts the guys have done but it is a very serious film on an incredible true story.

Mike and Matt both loved this movie and highly recommend you see it even if you can’t make it to the local movie theater and have to watch it later when it comes out on Blu-ray or Netflix.  It is incredibly impactful and well acted by the majority of the cast, sorry Nick Kroll you sucked.  Matt and Mike both give the film 4 out of 5 Reels.

This Thursday Matt and Mike review a film that is basically the exact opposite of Operation Finale.  The hosts review a cult classic drug riddle story based around the book and life of famed journalist Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro.  Talk at you Thursday.  Don’t forget we are still looking for suggestions for Episode #50 which is coming up real fast.  Email us your thoughts on what we should do for this upcoming milestone episode.

Hey kids and welcome to our podcast about them moving pictures called movies!  If you are a kid you probably should stop reading this now, this movie might have puppets in it but it is not for you!  Today Mysterious Mike and Awesome Matt review Jenny McCarthy’s cousin (no seriously they are cousins!!), Melissa McCarthy’s, latest film The Happytime Murders!  The guys do get off topic a bit on this one discussing Tesla’s, the Matrix, Elon Musk, and most importantly the Reel Film Nerd’s 50th Episode! 

Mike loved the murder mystery set in a world where humans and puppets co-exist.  There were a few scenes he loved more than others but genuinely enjoyed this film.  He gives The Happytime Murders 3 out of 5 Reels.  The Awesome Matt did not like this movie as much as Mike in fact he did not like it at all well there were a few really funny scenes. Maybe the trailer ruined it for him.  Matt gives The Happytime Murders 2 our 5 Reels.

What do you want Matt and Mike to do for their first milestone, Episode 50?  Email us at [email protected] and let us know your thoughts.  Do you want to win a Blu-ray?  Maybe they just review a really cool fun legacy movie.  Let us know what you want to hear.  On the docket for next week the boys will review Operation Finale, a true story based on the hunt for the Nazi officer who masterminded the Holocaust.  Chat at you next Tuesday.

Hi everybody! Today your hosts review Marky Mark’s latest action thriller Mile 22.  It is a solid action film with a bad and over used storyline.  The biggest shining light is Iko Uwais’ martial arts stunts.  It is very reminiscent of the older martial arts films and is just a joy to watch.  The guys pretty much stay on topic except Mike does bring up Moviepass and surprise, Matt actually used it to see Mile 22!  YEAH!!!  Using a service, he has paid for is a great thing.       

For the most part Mysterious Mike enjoyed the film.  The story was not great, but he loved the action sequences and his boy Mark Wahlberg.  He gives Mile 22 3 out of 5 Reels.  Matt was not a fan of this film.  He did enjoy the acting especially by his sweetheart Lauren Cohan (what is wrong with this guy does he love every girl he sees on the big screen, man he needs a girlfriend!) and thought Iko Uwais was amazing!  He was disappointed that John Malkovich did not have a bigger role and spent the entire movie talking into a microphone.  He gives it 2 out of 5 Reels.

Thank you for liking, subscribing, rating, reviewing, and telling your friends about our podcast.  The guys will be back with Episode #43 on Thursday reviewing a puppet movie, not one for the kids though, The Happytime Murders.

So Mike slacked off this week and did not do his homework so we will not be reviewing Mile 22, yet.  He only made it to BlacKkKlansman.  Matt did his homework so for once it is not his fault!  Instead we bring you an incredible Legacy cast indie film that launched Kevin Smith’s career into the stratosphere, Clerks.  As you already know if you are still listening to our podcast after 40 episodes we get off topic a lot.  Here is the short list of things we talk about today.  Russell Crowe’s codpiece from Cinderella Man, Mike’s high school nickname, the acceptance of nerd culture, Blockbuster, Sprouts grocery stores (seriously), Star Wars, of course, and lastly the Reel Film Nerds upcoming October horror movie fest!  Sit back relax crack open your favorite brew and enjoy the show unless you are at work then just get back to work you slacker!

Matt loves Clerks a ton.  It has incredible writing and dialogue with solid cinematography but really rough acting.  Hey it is an indie and Kevin Smith basically used all of his friends and family as actors.  They did a bang up job though.  He gives Clerks 4.5 out of 5 Reels.  Mike loves Clerks as well but not as much as Matt.  Maybe it is the high school nickname he earned related to this film or maybe he is just harsh.  Mike gives Clerks a respectable 4 out of 5 Reels. 

Stay tuned for next week’s episodes when we review Mark Wahlberg’s latest action flick Mile 22 (maybe?) and the raunchy yet hilarious puppet caper The Happy Time Murders starring Melissa McCarthy.  Thanks for listening and chat at you Tuesday!

Welcome listeners new and old to the Reel Film Nerds Podcast!  Today your hosts Matt Hinshaw and Mysterious Mike get political while reviewing Spike Lee’s latest joint BlacKkKlansman.  They really tried to keep politics out but it is very difficult with a film like this.  Was Mike able to keep the Marvel Cinematic Universe tie-ins going?  Heck ya he was, this makes 32 movies Mike has tied to the MCU.  If you are wondering why it is only 32 out of 40 well Mike did not join the show until Episode #4: Black Panther, we have reviewed 3 MCU films, and lastly Mike did not appear on two episodes (Episode #9 and Episode #12).  I know more information then you care to know but it is pretty cool that we are proving our theory.    

Mike and Matt both enjoyed this film and recommend you see it if it’s available near you.  It is not a must for a movie theater, but it is worth your time if it is.  Adam Driver and John David Washington were excellent along with the fascinating true story.  The guys thought there were some political scenes and writing Spike Lee added to the film that were not needed.  This film is already impactful enough in today’s climate without them.  Mike gives BlacKkKlansman a respectable 3 out of 5 Reels.  Matt thought it earned higher marks then that even though there were parts of the film he did not think were necessary.  He gives BlacKkKlansman a 4 out of 5 Reels. 

Thank you for liking, subscribing, rating, reviewing, and telling your friends about our podcast.  The guys will be back with Episode #41 on Thursday for another Legacy cast, the infamous film that launched the career of Kevin Smith, Clerks.  Chat at you then.

Welcome back to the unofficial Chipotle podcast!  Today your two hosts bust out with their second Tributary cast the Netflix original movie Mute.  This futuristic dystopian Sci-Fi thriller is very reminiscent of Blade Runner in scope and feel; it is not Blade Runner though.  The guys try something new trying to talk about the film without spoiling it for the first half of the pod and let loose and spoil everything for the second half.  We warn you many times so if you don’t want to hear it you can stop accordingly.  Do you like the new format?  Mike again brings up MoviePass and its impending demise.  The guys request some hate mail and hate comments but doubt they will get any.  Go ahead send us some especially to Mysterious Mike and [email protected].  Lastly RFN can now be found on Spotify!!  There is no excuse not to subscribe!

Mute was a confusing badly written but beautifully filmed movie that you can probably skip unless you really need something to watch or you love Paul Rudd.  Mike gives it 2 out of 5 Reels.  Matt as always is more generous why, who knows maybe he is drunk again, he gives Mute 3 out of 5 Reels.  Thanks for listening and chat at you on Tuesday!

Welcome back fellow film nerds!  Today Matt and Mike review a giant piece of crap that they do not understand why it is doing so well at the box office, The Meg.  Things get off the rails fast! The guys start talking about baby names, online gaming in the early 90’s, and of course MoviePass. Mike mostly wanted to see if Matt had finally cancelled his subscription, nope!  Back on topic, did The Meg get such amazing box office numbers over opening weekend because it was rated PG-13 instead of R and why the hell is Ruby Rose’s hair constantly wet in this movie for no reason?  The guys finish the review by getting serious a bit about animals and their senseless killing such as sharks to make only shark fin soup.  They do not go too in depth but the boys do voice their thoughts on the subject.

The Meg was bad, really really bad, and the guys agree you should not waste your money on it.  Matt was too kind like always and gave it 2.5 out of 5 Reels.  Mike handed out the lowest rating in Reel Film Nerds history with a 1 out of 5 Reels.  Seriously don’t see this movie but do listen to the podcast.  It is a good one even with all the off topic nonsense!  Make sure check back on Thursday for the guys second Tributary cast for the Netflix Original Movie starring Paul Rudd, Mute.

Hello boys and girls and welcome to another Legacy cast!  Today your hosts Mysterious Mike and Matt Hinshaw talk about a beloved childhood action film Universal Soldier.  The guys loved this movie a ton when they were kids, today in their 30’s not so much.  They also discuss the many northern Arizona locations it was filmed at and why the many more recent films based in AZ are not filmed there but in New Mexico.  Matt gets lost in the internet while researching an aircraft featured in the film called the Super Guppy.  Lesson learned don’t pod and internet!  There is lots of fun Universal Soldier trivia discussed by both hosts and even the discovery of multiple sequels neither of them knew existed.  This is a Legacy Cast for the ages!   

Matt and Mike both were disappointed re-watching this film.  It does not stand the test of time.  The acting is very bad and the movie comes across as flat out cheesy.  The guys both give Universal Soldier 2 Reels out of 5.  Next week the guys will be reviewing the summer blockbuster shark movie The Meg and their second Tributary Cast the Netflix Original movie Mute.  Chat with you next week!

Welcome film buffs to another incredible amazing stupendous episode of the Reel Film Nerds Podcast!  I spy with my little eye our latest review, The Spy Who Dumped Me.  A great action filled comedic buddy film!  Matt and Mike were surprised at how much they liked this film.  Mike does it again and throws gasoline on the MoviePass fire really getting Matt going since he had to pay to see this movie. The guys then touch a bit on the recent firing of James Gunn by Disney over really old tweets and they agree that it is a bad move.  Of course this opens the door for Matt to talk about Star Wars specifically can’t Solo: A Star Wars Story and its flop.  They continue off topic for a bit discussing Ron Howard and how many amazing movies he has directed.

The Spy Who Dumped Me is a really fun slap sticky comedy that is definitely worth a watch.  Mila Kunis did a fantastic job and Matt would not mind her becoming one of his future ex-wives.  Kate McKinnon rained her acting in a bit and really delivered a superb performance.  Matt gives The Spy Who Dumped Me 3.5 out of 5 Reels.  Mike enjoyed the film even more then Matt if you can believe it!  He rarely best’s Matt’s rating but he did!  He gives it a 4 out of 5 Reels!  This buddy movie was fun and a little raunchy which was fine with us.
