This week we are exploring the 1999 cult classic - Election.  This dark comedy sealed the deal for Reese’s eventual casting in Legally Blonde, so you know she pulls out all the stops in her role as Tracy Flick.  We love that while this movie is over the top, it also provides some empathetic, introspective moments (and some great freeze frames)! Episode sponsored by: Bright Endeavors : https://brig...

We're taking a detour between seasons to talk about season 2 of the hit series The Morning Show by Apple TV+. We originally became obsessed with the show when it first launched, because our OG Girl Crush Jennifer Aniston stars in it. But now we have even more reason to love the show now that we've chosen Reese Witherspoon as our season 3 girl crush! We love the complex story lines, the p...

Sandra Bullock plays a sweet diner waitress with a soft spot for her regulars. Listen along as we giggle, "aw," and tear up during our rev...

When we say we watch EVERY movie in one actress's filmography...we mean it. And we're proving that here with our reviews of two mockumentaries that Sandra Bullock made tiny (like... teeny tiny) appearances in. Join us as we take you through the 2000 film "Lisa Picard is Famous" and the 1998 film "Welcome to Hollywood." We've deduced a few things from reviewing th...

The time has come to review one of our personal favorites in Sandra Bullock's filmography! We are digging into the iconic '09 rom-com The Proposal. A star-studded cast including Ryan Reynolds, Betty White, Mary Steenburgen, Craig Nelson, and Oscar Nunez deliver one of (dare we say it?) the greatest rom-coms of all time. They just don't make them like this anymore! Join us as we diss...

Did you know Sandra Bullock has bee in TWO movies set in Bolivia? In today's episode, we'll be reviewing both! Fire on the Amazon, released in 1993, finds Sandra Bullock alongside Craig Sheffer investigating a murder with a rainforest preservation group. This movie has an intriguing description, but the execution fell way flat. Our Brand is Crisis is a 2015 film based on the true story o...

Did you know Liam Neeson and Sandra Bullock were in a movie together? Because before this podcast, we did not! Join us as review the 2000 movie Gun Shy. The mob and the cartel come together in this movie in what ends up being quite a confusing plot.

Okay maybe, but we've all dreamt about it, right? That's what you get in the 1995 movie While You Were Sleeping starring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman.

Toby Jones plays Capote alongside Daniel Craig as Perry and Sandra Bullock as Nelle Harp...

The Vanishing is a 1993 mystery thriller starring Jeff Bridges, Kiefer Sutherland, and our girl Sandra Bullock.  While Sandra herself is not in the majority of this movie, her character looms larger than life throughout. This movie might not be an absolute must-watch but the creepy and twisting plot keeps you on your toes and can make you jump and squirm! Join us this week as we talk about surviva...

Join us as we review the 1989 comedy starring Sandra Bullock alongside Jonathan Penner. While the plot moves along slowly & could have been fleshed out more, we have to admit that this movie portrays a parodical view on religion that rings all too true in 2021. Tune in to hear how this early movie stacks up in the ranking vs all other Sandra Bullock movies! More about Girl Crush: Website : www...
