The Review Review

Message us ANONYMOUSLY

In our most demure and mindful episode to date, Guest: Sam Bullington checks in for a stay at “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” (2014 d. Anderson / Writings - Zweig) by way of a Review Review. Starring: Ralph Finnes, F. Murray Abraham, and Adrien Brody. This episode gets almost as charming as this clearly (that’s Willem Dafoe) Wes Anderson film, until Corporate Overlord Gerrah Joees comes in to make us talk football, for no compensation. And we talk what he tells us to talk. Cause, “That’s, Dallas.” 8/5!

Donner 1978) and "Superman (5uperman)" (d. Gunn 2025). And don't worry, as we have "Brainiac" Ben join to join in on the discourse via the remote from his fortress of solitude to....I have been editing for hours, I can't keep this up right now. Enjoy! 7/13!

“Meat Loaf Month,” goes furiously forward into “Fight Club,” (1999 d.Fincher book - Palahniuk) with our guest, Aaron Goodman - LMT (Licensed Massage Therapist). Baby, we hear the blues a callin’, but we’re gonna keep on dancin’ at the paper st. pink soapy club. And don’t worry, there’s plenty of tossed salads and scrambled eggs for everyone with metaphors, dated references, confusing lines, and of course, lessons in airplane etiquette. What is a boy(s) to do?! 7/22!

We approach the castle lair of Dr. Frank-N-Furter ready to party, for what has to be one of the Dr.'s most jovial, and moist affairs (except Rocky). The spills, the chills, the bumps, the lumps! It's alllllll here, and includes many tapestries! 7/8!

For this very special BIRTHDAY EDITION of "You Choose the Review," for "Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade," (d. Spielberg 1989) Ben's invited the most excellent Damian Peterson to the party, and he's got a two day head start on recording, which is more than he needs. Damian's got friends on audio and video podcasts from here to the Sudan, he speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom, he'll blend in, disappear, you'll never see him again...or at all, cause it's an audio podcast. Maybe we can convince him to come back for the holidays?? 6/28!

Smoke 'em if you got 'em, cause you're in for "The Long Goodbye," (1973 d. Altman). Starring: Elliott Gould, Nina van Pallandt, and Sterling Hayden. Joining is our guest, very cool Director, Matthew Palmer (Instagram). In this edition, we go deep into the annals of "Philip Marlowe," films and novels. What was the actual plan (if one existed) for Roger Wade? Just how much of this movie is in "Lebowski," and others, Lebowski? We don't know either, but clearly, you are not a golfer. 6/24!

Oh, and for the duration, please refer to us as "The Brooks Brothers," or "srehtorb skoorb eht," if you prefer. 6/10!

Ben had to bounce (he just didn’t have the time), so Guest Host Katie Hampton (@elsassypants) bounds in with her choice “Big Trouble,” (in larger Miami. D. Sonnenfeld 2002…technically). We heartily chuckle through the Tim Allen school of acting, lack of plot, uuummm world events, and more in this episode that will have you wishing Paul were Ben more than ever! Get ready for a load of the toad (lots of Paul) on 5/27!

Starring: Stephen Chow, Yuen Qiu, and Yuen Wah. We go from existential metaphor to existential metaphor, in this homage laden kung fu genre/cinema masterpiece (?). An episode with speed, with reliability, and edited/operated by a man who was sent here by the devil! MONO...D'oh! Let's huuuuuustleeee! 5/13!
