In this episode, we covered 2017's Stratton, starring Dominic Cooper, Gemma Chan and Tom Felton (AKA Draco Malfoy from the Harry Potter movies)

Directed by Englishman Simon West (Tomb Raider [2001] and Con Air)

Logline: A British Special Boat Service commando tracks down an international terrorist cell.

Unfortunately, although it features a group called SBS and a character called Stratton, it is NOT about David Stratton.

The boys (sans Hayden) are BACK! Interested in the relationship of Amber Heard, Johnny Depp and a bit of Cara Delevigne as a messy drug addict?

Based on the hit book, London Fields (2018) is the movie for you. It's one of those ones where the director and producers all sued each other and the director hates the cut they went with.

It took 3 years before it was released and still got a 0%. And now we've watched it, and we (spoilers) loved it. Amber Heard plays a character basically called Nikki Sixx, like the guy from Motley Crue!

Bruce Willis stars (for 13 minutes) in Precious Cargo, an action thriller directed by Max Adams and also starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar.

As IMDB says, the plot is simply: A crime boss tries to make off with loot that belongs to another thief.

Mitch, Hayden and Declan analyse the film with special guest: Australian Bruce Willis.

Declan, Mitch and Hayden discuss Nic Cage as a pilot in Left Behind (2014), a cute Christian movie about the Rapture.

In this superhero origin story and adaptation of Mattel's 15 year running cartoon, the world was treated to a live action Max Steel (2016).

With Hayden on suspension, Morgan, Mitch and Declan tackle everything about Andy Garcia's villainous Pacino-esque performance, and Ben Winchell's leading everyboy role.

Directed by Stewart Hendler, this potato feels a bit like Transformers but struggles to properly target its tone and audience.

Back on the scriptures, the four boys are reunited to talk through the DJ Caruso movie The Disappointments Room (2016). 

Starring Kate Beckinsale and Mel Raido, this supernatural thriller/horror tomato treads the ground of paranoid and traumatised women not taking her meds and thinking she's seeing creepy ghosts. And she is! Weirdly, this movie is also co-written by actor Wentworth Miller, best known for being one of the leads in Prison Break.

The boys take some time to deviate from their Bible of 0% films and take a look at 2021's late release: The Matrix Resurrections, directed by Lana Wachoswki co-writer and co-director from the original trilogy, and starring Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss.

Resurrections is the fourth feature film in the Matrix franchise and serves as an amalgamation of reboot, remake and sequel.

It got a 63% on Rotten Tomatoes, but we wanted to review it anyway. Morgan was absent this episode due to suspension.

Comedian and TV personality Concetta Caristo joins the gang talk about the 2016 remake of Eli Roth's independent horror hit Cabin Fever.

Released 14 years after the 2002 original, it found itself on the 0% list.

At its core, its a gory violent horror film about 5 friends going to a cabin in the woods and succumbing to a flesh-eating virus.

They virtually used Roth's original script and our recommendation is go watch the original, which is offensive and outdated, but still better. 

Listen to Concetta on Triple J mornings, and her podcast Big Natural Talents.

Joining the gang on this episode, from a Brisbane balcony surrounded by birds during hotel quarantine, is Reuben Styles from platinum selling Peking Duk and his latest outfit Y.O.G.A (You're Only Great Always).

In this episode, we covered 2009's Stolen, starring Mad Men's Jon Hamm with a goofy haircut, Josh Lucas and Dawson's Creek's James Van Der Beek with appearances from Rhona Mitra, Jessica Chastain and Morena Baccarin.

It is not to be confused with the 2012 Stolen also starring Josh Lucas and Nic Cage.

Logline: A detective deals with the loss of his own son while trying to uncover the identity of a boy whose mummified remains are found in a box buried for fifty years.
