The Beekeeper – Movie Review

Posted on by Aaron White.

Barely average or below in almost every single way – not even a constant flow of bee puns and the occasional body part removal can save this overly silly and unspectacular action flick.

FF+ Silent Night

Posted on by Aaron White.

John Woo returns to American cinema after twenty years with a revenge film that features no dialogue and a surprisingly emotional story. The action is solid, though unspectacular, but the film’s overall balance of melodrama and underdog ass-kicking combined with a fantastic score and sound design makes for a successful reunion between the director and fans.

FF+ Special Ops: Lioness

Posted on by Aaron White.

A captivating take from creator Taylor Sheridan on female strength in military special ops and espionage that treads lightly into melodrama while keeping its focus mostly on the high-stakes mission at hand. It’s well-paced with great use of tactics when action is required, but the depth of character building and ideological dilemmas it presents make it special.

Episode 376: Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One

Posted on by Aaron White.

Rounding out three weeks in a row of mission madness, we dig into the newest entry in Tom Cruise’s blockbuster action spy series. Narratively, this time around we’ve got some notes, and overall feel it missed the depth that some of franchise’s most chilling human villains provided. But even with some issues, the spectacle in incredibly entertaining and the pacing absolutely perfect, resulting in such an exciting and fun experience that we can find ourselves able to forgive this for not quite reaching the Ethan Hunt Hall of Fame.

Episode 375: Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation

Posted on by Aaron White.

Continuing our immersion in the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE franchise over a few weeks, we have a conversation about the franchise’s sixth entry, one that shines for its overall balance of high quality elements. We talk about the addition of Ilsa Faust as a mysterious friend/foe and subtle love interest, how great of an antagonist Solomon Lane and The Syndicate are, and why Ethan’s relationship with his teammates will always make this series special. Plus more, of course, because there are always crazy stunts and intricate set pieces to ooh and aah over, as well.

Episode 374: Mission: Impossible

Posted on by Aaron White.

We’re going back to the beginning (of the movies at least) to start off three weeks of celebrating this outstanding spy series. Tom Cruise instantly becomes the iconic IMF agent Ethan Hunt, we learn about the power of masks, get to see exploding gum, and kick-off a world in which practically everyone goes rogue at some point. This is a very 90s and very De Palma entry in the franchise, but remains one of our most favorites.

Episode 372: The Flash

Posted on by Aaron White.

Barry Allen misses his Mom, so he runs backward really fast and reverses time so that he can try and keep here alive in the present. Unsurprisingly, this timeline meddling causes lots of complications, among them Barry having to team up with an alternate version of himself and recruit a new squad of superheroes to help fight off the return of an old/alternate threat. There’s a big mess to unpack in this one, but we are up to the task and try to highlight the things we enjoyed as well being honest about the things we didn’t.

Episode 371: Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

Posted on by Aaron White.

Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal, together, fighting to keep Earth safe along some unlikely human heroes. We dug Steven Caple Jr.’s transportation of the franchise into the 90s for the first time and thought the action, the humor, and the heart were all very solid and helped deliver one of the better films featuring the robots in disguise so far. We question whether there was enough use of the Maximals, discuss the surprise at the end, and try to think through what a perfect Transformers movie would even look like, plus so much more.

Episode 368: Fast X

Posted on by Aaron White.

Family! Family, family, family… family; family? FAMMMMMMIIILLLLLLYYY. The family is in trouble because Dante Reyes is out for blood, but first he wants to cause them as much suffering as possible, which means we need even more family to come back so that they can be punished, too. This entry goes fully self-aware and asks us to laugh at it instead of just with it. We don’t exactly think it’s a good movie, but we both enjoyed our time in the theater and feel kind of conflicted about that. Listen in as we go through franchise burnout therapy.

Episode 364: Ghosted

Posted on by Aaron White.

This blend of romantic comedy with an action-adventure spy romp works great, primarily because of the wonderful chemistry of its stars and a good dose of easy to digest fun that provides smiles and laughs without requiring you to think too hard. It feels like a throwback to an era we both remember fondly. We explain why and discuss what made us enjoy this one so much.
