Married With Clickers

We attended some TIFF screenings a few weeks ago and we're finally sitting down to talk about them. This episode includes reviews of The Iceman starring Michael Shannon, Thérèse Desqueyroux starring Audrey Tautou, the Hong Kong car chase flick  Motorway and Spanish apocalyptic reunion movie  Fin (The End) . Kat also fills us in on what it's like to see a 50something Madonna perform. Head colds abo...

This week, we watch Michael Caine follow a rather unconventional path up the corporate ladder in A Shock to the System . This black comedy from 1990 seems all but forgotten, but is it a hidden gem or worth avoiding? Tune in to find out. We also chat about the most shock finale in Bachelor Pad history, Haywire and boobs. Not necessarily in that order. We'd love to hear from you, so feel free to dro...

This week, we take on a monster - Lars Von Trier's Melancholia . Much ink has been spilled over Von Trier's works through the years but, at long last, the world will finally get to hear our two cents. It's the end of the world and does anyone really care? Kirsten Dunst sure doesn't. Tune in to see how this rather polarizing film sat with us. We also dive into the feedback bag. As always, we'd love...

This week, we lace up the gloves and step into the ring with Robert Wise's boxing-theme noir from 1949, The Set-Up . In this one, the great Robert Ryan plays an ill-fated, over the hill pugilist. Is the film itself over the hill, or can the team of Wise and Ryan still teach us some new tricks? Tune in to find out. We also share our quick thoughts on Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows , A Dangerous M...

We get back to the good stuff this week, with a review of Billy Wilder's 1959 comedy  Some Like It Hot . Some people may also like this movie, but did we? Well, the answer is 'yes', but please still tune in to find out why. We also chat about season 1 of Boardwalk Empire , The Lady in the Lake and John Woo's Paycheck . That last one felt like a Cruel Summer aftershock. We would love to hear from y...

Cruel Summer ends with a whimper this week. We are obviously suffering from bad movie fatigue as we look to put this whole thing out of its misery. We burn through three quick reviews covering The Ugly Truth , King Kong Lives and Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man . We failed to see the humour in any of these - perhaps the summer heat makes us cranky. We also discuss some other recent watches in...

This week, Cruel Summer hits a new high (or is it a new low?) with the straight to DVD sequel to a film that we'd never seen. Into the Blue 2: The Reef  is jam-packed with vaguely familiar faces and reality stars desperate to find their 16th minute of fame. Sure it's terrible, but is it any good? Let's just say that if you like split screens, gratuitious T&A and scuba montages, this may be the fil...

Cruel Summer continues this week, with a look at Torque from 2004. We ask a lot of questions, but none more important than what in the hell was this DVD doing in Scott's parents' collection? Tune in to find out whether we thought it was a torqey or speactorqular. Perhaps both? We also chat briefly, in a spoiler-free fashion, about Dark Knight Rises . You may have heard of that one. We'd love to he...

Cruel Summer continues this week, as we pack up our hockey bags and jump on the cheese wagon as we head back to summer camp with a review of 1980's Little Darlings . We discuss our camp experiences, Armand Assante's swarthiness and whether Matt Dillon may actually be the prettiest of the bunch. Our mailbox has been a bit light this summer, so please let us know what you think at marriedwithclicker...

Cruel Summer heats up this week as we get shipwrecked with Brooke Shields and Chris Atkins in The Blue Lagoon . This was a pretty infamous movie during our respective childhoods, so we take a look to see what all the fuss was about. We have some laughs, shed some tears and wonder what kind of glue they used on Brooke Shields' boobs to keep that hair in place. Let us know your thoughts by sending u...

Surf's Up, Dudes! This week, we begin our Cruel Summer with the 2002 Hawaiian tax shelter known as Blue Crush . This film raises plenty of questions, most notably: who is the idiot responsible for convincing Kate Bosworth that she needed to lose weight? It's a super short show, as we're away from technology much of the summer and trying to get some content in the can, but hopefully it is sweet. We...

Kat continues her Fass bender this week as we review 2011's Shame . We've all heard a lot about Michael Fassbender's weiner, but what about his butt? Tune in to find out. Also, we try to talk about the actual movie; focusing on the challenge of bringing the difficult subject matter to the big screen. Does Steve McQueen succeed? Scott gives a quick review of The Man From Hong Kong and we both gush...

This week, we celebrate summer with a visit to Amity Island circa 1978 with a review of Jaws 2 . Sheriff Brody is looked Tanned, but not at all Rested and he is certainly not Ready to deal with another Great White. It is almost impossible not to compare this one to the original, but we try our best. We also chat briefly about the film noir Dead Reckoning and sort out how we're going to schedule so...

After a bit of a delay, we're back with a look at 2009's Fish Tank , a gritty look at... blah, blah blah. Yup, Fassbender is in it and his shirt is off. We also chat about Black Gunn , Madagascar 3 and Van Wilder . A very eclectic week to say the least. We'd love to hear from your, so write us at marriedwithclickers@gmail.com or 206-338-0793

We celebrate our 75th show with a visit from an old friend; Mr. Cary Grant. The Talk of the Town is an interesting mix of drama and comedy, featuring three of the biggest stars of the era. How does it hold up today? Should it be remembered with the great films of the 40s or just lumped in with second tier TCM fodder? We also chat about Sherlock: The Final Problem , Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barr...

Here it is folks, the final installment of ArMAYgeddon. This week we cover Poseidon from 2006, a mega budget remake of one of Kat's all-time favourite flicks. How does it compare? Did it make our hearts buoyant, or did we get a sinking feeling? Tune in to find out. We also take a quick look at Sherlock: Hound of the Baskervilles , Revenge of the Creature and Strange Impersonation . Your feedback h...

ArMAYgeddon takes a sharp turn this week with a review of 1977's Roller Coaster . We were both feeling a bit loopy so our conversation may go off the rails at times. We also cover Ida Lupino's The Hitch-Hiker , The Hunger Games , Young Adult and the Sherlock 's return to these shores. We'd love to hear from you, so please drop us a line at 206-338-0793 or marriedwithclickers@gmail.com

ArMAYgeddon heats up this week with a look at  Dante's Peak from 1997. We cover a wide range of topics including science, Mount Aetna and stubborn old people. Are James Bond and Sarah Connor any match for molten lava? Tune in to find out. We also chat about  The Avengers , Thor and Kat's crush on Loki. As always, we'd love to hear from you at marriedwtihclickers@gmail.com or 206-338-0793  

There's a whole lotta shakin' going on this week with a look at 1974's Earthquake . Neither of us had seen it before, but we knew that we were in for a wild ride. The really don't make 'em like this anymore. We didn't watch any other movies this week, as our social lives have gotten in the way of our anti-social lives. We'd love to hear your thoughts, so drop us at line at 206-338-0793 or marriedw...

ArMAYgeddon takes off this week and with a look at The Concorde... Airport '79 from, you guessed it, 1979. It features an all-star cast of C-listers and some wonky special effects. Does it soar at Mach 2 or crash like a lead balloon? We also talk about what elements make for a disaster movie and Scott gives a quick review of Play It Again, Sam . Please drop us a line with questions, comments and c...

We get a head start on ArMAYgeddon this week with 1998's Hard Rain  starring Christian Slater, Morgan Freeman and Betty White. Yup, like all good disaster movies, this one has a bonkers cast. We just got back from a week at Walt Disney World, so we go through our Top 10 Disney rides. You do not want to miss that! We also chat about We Bought a Zoo , New Year's Eve and that 80s classic Captain EO ....

This week, we decide to spent some quality time with the Lisbon sisters with a review of Sofia Coppola's 1999 debut The Virgin Suicides. We did not see eye to eye on this one so tune in to hear us trying to politely insult each other's intelligence. Truth be told, Kat likely won. We have not see any movies lately so we get down to some TV talk - covering Community , The Office and even Smash . We'...

This week we take to the streets of New Orleans with the 1950 film noir (?) thriller Panic In The Streets starring Richard Widmark and Jack Palance. After 62 years, does the movie smell as fresh as a stroll through the Garden District or like Bourbon Street at 6:00 AM? We also chat briefly about Scott's trip to The Final Four,   The Other Woman , The Thing From Another World and The Descendants ,...

This week, we travel back to the 1980s to learn a very important lesson: racism is bad. 1988's Betrayed is a treasure trove of corn fields, cold beer and mom jeans. Is it worth tracking down or should it remain forgotten? Tune in to find out. We also chat about John Carter and Kill the Irishman . Sned us an email to marriedwithclickers@gmail.com or call us at 206-338-0793

This week, we head down under and out west with Ned Kelly from 2003, starring the late Heath Ledger as the infamous outlaw. Is it a diamond in the rough or should it be left in the outback? Tune in to find out. We also chat briefly about The Help and The Italian Connection . Feedback is always welcome at 206-338-0793 or marriedwithclickers@gmail.com
