Retired Hack Frauds

No good movies have come out this year, so Dani and I decided to just review something we’ve been passionate about. SMORMU

A very late Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Retired Hacks! Today Dani and I reunite to talk about a brand new smash hit film from Josh Safdie. Then we discuss our top 10 best and worst films we saw in 2025. Look we don’t get to make many of these specials anymore so if you don’t listen you’ll be getting a house dropped on your head.

Today feels like a career best for me and Dani as we unpack an actor we haven’t particularly liked in his “Oscar Worthy” performance. Did Benny Safdie deliver a good film despite The Rocks limited range? We also announce a big change coming to the podcasts future and where it’s going. All that and more on Retired Hacks!

The final episode for a little while. Hayden and Dani talk about the much anticipated Nobody 2, Sinners (briefly), and Weapons. Do these movies hold a candle to their hype or are they all very okay. We also discuss how the summer was as a whole for movies and our thoughts on the box office results and where studios go from here.

Dani dips her toe back into the MCU to see what all the hype is about with the new Fantastic Four. All while Hayden compares this to the other Marvel movies he’s seen this year. Another typical movie review from 2 hacks. Is this movies hype warranted? Is Marvel back for the 80th time? Did they at least do Galactus justice? Will Yoinks sue us for coming out of retirement? All that and more on today...

Hayden and Dani review the much anticipated James Gunn Superman movie. Is it the greatest comic book movie of the century? Is it ok? Is Cornswet a good Superman? Find out today on Retired Hacks! Also skip past the first 13 minutes if you don’t wanna hear us ramble about past Superman iterations. ALSO SPOILERS THE ENTIRE EPISODES.

The first John Wick theatrical spinoff in all its reshoots and stunt filled glory. Dani and I discuss if this spinoff is decent enough to justify the John Wick franchise continuing. Or if it’s another case of studios just trying to get the quick cash.

Dani and Hayden return for yet another retirement special. This time we discuss the highly anticipated “final” Mission Impossible movie in all its messy glory. Also Tom Cruise is saved by Ohio in this movie.

Well yet another retired hacks special (it wouldn’t let me combine it with Mickey 17 idk why) we talk about the new Looney Tunes that’s been thrown under the bus by marketing and WB. Is it worth all the hype? Idk tune in to find out

Today Dani and Hayden complete the movie series that garnered the most success streams size (yes we’re sellouts). Is the third film in the Sonic franchise worth the hype?

After being paid to crawl out of the hole again, we return with another movie we didn’t want to see. Is Joker 2 (the title is too long bro) a worthy sequel to the original? Does the musical choices pay off? Is Todd Philips cooking? Was it worth over 2 hours of your life?

The return of everyone’s favorite yapping duo. Today we talk about the highly marketed and praised Longlegs and if it’s another of being overhyped or really good. Then we finish our obligation to TI West horror trilogy with Maxxxine.

We were both paid to come out of retirement to talk about this one (not even joking) so reluctantly here we are talking about the latest Alex Garland A24 film I guess. Spoilers throughout the entire thing if you even care.
