Galaxy Quest 28.09.2025 2:00:48
Take a movie that is so beloved by the people that it was satirizing that it ranks in the top ten of THEIR greatest movies. That's Galaxy Quest. It is a perfect complement to Star Trek, and every aspect of it sings a love song to the movies that bore it. This movie is golden.

The Six Triple Eight 11.01.2025 57:15
There was an amazing, powerful story to be told in this movie about the first battalion of Black women in the Army. Major Charity Adams was the first Black woman to become an officer in the Women's Corps. The Herculean task that they had to undertake. The way that they delivered the mail that no one else could. The uplifting, motivating stories are everywhere. Unfortunately, Tyler Perry directed t...
House Party 09.01.2023 1:39:35
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! They shouldn't have done that toilet like that. Who in the hell shits at a party anyway? Also, Derik ruined this movie for himself by seeing it through the eyes of an actual adult, so he was useless for this entire episode. Everyone in this movie was at least 25 when they starred in it, other than the members of Full Force, who were all at LEAST 49 in the face. Oh, and Play is...
The Prestige 05.12.2022 58:19
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! This movie is a bonafide classic. It is literally astonishing that it doesn't get more love. The casting is perfect, the acting is perfect, the storyline is perfect, and the prestige is perfect. Brandon has watched this movie a million times and still finds new stuff each time he watches it. Derik has watched it twice. He missed A LOT. Enjoy. Leave an email at Hind...
Roll Bounce 28.11.2022 52:17
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! By rights, I should hate everything about this movie. Meagan Good is in it. BOW-WOW is in it. Nick Cannon is in it for six minutes and gets star credits on the front of the box, a travesty that was last seen when the late Coolio was put on the cover of Phat Beach and was literally only in the movie for as long as a person with no lungs can hold their breath. The acting i...
Back to the Future 3 22.08.2022 1:44:11
Ahoy Motherfuckers! They had issues with coping with the incest storyline in the first movie, but in the third movie, they make no comment at all about the fact that George McFly's great-great-grandmother looks just like Lorraine Baines. Also, Marty should know what a Tannen looks like at this juncture, and Doc only cares about the future being changed when he isn't the one changing it. With...
Back to the Future 2 14.08.2022 1:59:56
Ahoy Motherfuckers! There wasn't supposed to be a sequel to Back to the Future, and when the sequel was made, it wasn't supposed to be set in the future. It also wasn't supposed to do anything more than to set up the third movie in the trilogy, which was already made when the sequel came out. The movie is beloved, not because of the storyline, per se but because of the scientific advancements that...
Back to the Future 08.08.2022 1:42:43
Ahoy Motherfuckers! Disney turned this movie down because it had elements of incest in it. Other studios turned it down because it didn't have the raunchy nature of Porky's or Revenge of the Nerds. Their loss. Brandon and Derik were joined by Cee Brandon of the Say Something Nice podcast, and we reflected on one of the greatest movies of modern history and the paradoxes within it. Enjoy. Lea...
Dick Tracy 25.07.2022 1:38:22
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! You take Batman '89's music, add the campiness of Adam West's Batman from the '60s and give Al Pacino absolute autonomy to do what he wishes. You also have awesome casting, excellent make-up, grand set designs, and amazing costuming, and you have Dick Tracy. Really, all you need is Al Pacino. He took this role and poured cocaine on it. Leave an email at HindsightM...
Spaceballs 04.07.2022 1:06:11
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! You take John Candy and put him into any movie, and you already have comedic gold. But when you mix him with Rick Moranis in possibly his greatest role and add Mel Brooks' writing genius, you have a comedic classic. Brandon chose Spaceballs for the movie of the week, and we had a wonderful time reminiscing about the movie that was so great that George Lucas allowed the Milleni...
Rocky III 06.06.2022 1:53:57
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! Clubber Lang is NOT the villain of Rocky III. Even if I wasn't a black man who thinks the world of him, I would still contend that he isn't the villain. The villain of this movie is clearly Paulie, who happens to be a racist AND a hater, which is just such a poor combination. It isn't Clubber's fault that Mickey KNEW that Clubber would whoop Rocky's ass, so he kept ducki...
Petey Wheatstraw 07.03.2022 1:45:41
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! It has been said that if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. Enjoy.

Coffy 22.02.2022 1:35:00
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! Wooden acting, horrible Jamaican accents, awful effects, soul-withering soundtrack lyrics, and head-scratching motives could not dampen the absolute star power of Pam Grier in this Blaxploitation classic. Brandon loves this movie so much that he named his dog after it, but Derik had never seen it before, and Jeff will never miss out on an opportunity to get some great jokes in...
Meteor Man 06.02.2022 1:59:25
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! This movie had such a dynamic cast and literally did nothing with the vast majority of them. It had the first black superhero in modern history and literally failed to explain him. It had an interesting storyline and made it laughable by the casting of the villain. Movies like these are the reason Hindsight exists. Enjoy. Leave an email at HindsightMovieRevues@gmail.com...
I'm Gonna Git You Sucka! 30.01.2022 1:17:01
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! This movie is iconic. Endlessly quotable and hilarious, this is one of two perfect send-ups of the blaxploitation era of movies. This is Keenan Ivory Wayans at his finest. Enjoy.

Hollywood Shuffle 24.01.2022 1:06:56
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! This movie revolutionized black comedies and, in my opinion, assisted in opening up more opportunities for black actors and actresses outside of the scope that they had been locked into. This was a labor of love created by Robert Townsend. He literally paid for this out of his own pocket, as well as writing this with Keenan Ivory Wayans, and spent seventeen days over two years...
A Low Down Dirty Shame 18.01.2022 1:27:07
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! It is a low-down dirty shame how piss poor the acting was by the leading man in this film. The jokes fall flat more often than not, the metaphors are mind-numbingly stupid, and the motives behind the actions are lacking. Roc and Jada Pinkett tried, but they can't save a movie this bad on their own. Join us as we discuss it from pillar to post, and smoke it like a motherf...
The Matrix 13.12.2021 2:03:13
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! We were joined by Matt St. Jack from Anime Talk to discuss The Matrix. This movie is a bonafide classic. It changed so many different genres and viewpoints. It was a cinematic triumph. It was fun and exciting, and there was nothing quite like it. To be honest, there still isn't. But the allegories to a God Complex or Jesus are rich throughout, and Morpheus did push up rather h...
Ghostbusters: Afterlife 07.12.2021 48:29
Ahoy, motherfuckers! Take the first Ghostbusters, cut out the villain and paste her in a movie with kids in it. Then age the stars of the first movie by 37 years, and put them into needless roles in the movie with the kids in it. THEN stir. Oh. And make Winston a magical negro for all of his troubles in the previous movies. Brandon and I discuss Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Leave an email at Hindsight...
Ghostbusters (2016) 14.11.2021 1:16:33
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! This movie was an absolute joy that fixed every single issue that the previous films had. The women were actually given roles, the black character was an equal member of the Ghostbusters, and the city actually believed and respected their work. So it isn't any surprise to me that the movie tanked because menbabies were mad that this was an all-woman cast with a black woman in...
Ghostbusters 2 01.11.2021 1:33:07
Ahoy, Motherfuckers! I yearn to love this movie so much more. I love the soundtrack and the overall comedy is great. Rick Moranis and Annie Potts are incredible in their supporting roles, and Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, and Dan Aykroyd are always a delight. Sigourney Weaver is a treasure and should be hailed as one of the all-time greats if she isn't already. But Ernie Hudson got fucked over in the...
