The Better With Booze Film Club Podcast

In the very last episode of the Better With Booze Film Club Podcast, we end as we began nine years ago, by reviewing the 1977 film Death Game.  How have our thoughts changed? Tune in and find out!

The Four Cohosts sit down to watch The Two Popes.  But do we give it our blessing? Tune in and find out!

This week, your intrepid cohosts take on the 2009 sports biopic drama The Damned United.  So celebrate the start of the English football season by tuning in and listening to us!

This week Cameron takes back the hosting duties and shows his cohosts the 2021 concert documentary Summer Of Soul.

Elisa's final week of hosting duties brings us the 2007 vigilante thriller The Brave One.  What did her brave cohosts think of her selection?  Tune in and find out.

Kevin Bacon is a mild mannered man whose fam...you know what? It's a revenge film, you know the story. How does this one compare to the others? Tune in and find out.

Hard Candy proved a hard watch for a lot of your cohosts at BWBFC. But did that affect our recommendation of the film? Listen in and find out!

Sally Field in an intense revenge thriller? Seems like a slightly odd choice, I know.  But does it work out anyway?  Tune in and find out what we think.

For Sarah's final time in the driver's seat, we watch the 2015 political military thriller Eye In the Sky, featuring Helen Mirren and Alan Rickman in one of his final film roles.

Sarah's penultimate pick for her month of hosting duties is the 2011 sports comedy Goon.  Not to be confused with The Goonies. Or indeed the Goon Show.

We've reached the meaty middle of Sarah's month hosting the podcast, and to mark the occasion she has plucked a made for television film from her childhood memory bank. Is the nostalgia factor strong enough to drag the rest of us along?

In the second week of Sarah's takeover of the podcast, she subjects her cohost Cameron to a film by one of his least favorite directors.  But can he look past that and give a glowing review to Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr. Fox? Spoiler alert: he cannot.

Sarah takes over hosting duties for the month of June and she kicks things off with the 2020 genre bending time loop romantic comedy Palm Springs.  

It's the last of Glenn's month of movie takeovers, and this week he has his coworkers watch the Irish comedy Waking Ned Devine.  But did his cohosts think it was divine? Sorry, that's the best I could do.

Marlo Brando brings back his iconic Vito Corleone, but in a comedy about a Komodo dragon. Works better than this concept pitch might suggest.

It's Glenn's month for choosing the films and this week he has selected the slapstick screwball comedy What's Up, Doc? starring Barbara Streisand and Ryan O'Neil. But are his fellow cohosts as fond of the film as he is? Tune in and find out.

Glenn takes the reigns of the podcast and for his first choice of film he picks the 1997 Australian comedy The Castle.

The last of the comedies of Cameron's formative years, we have 1996's Waiting For Guffman, the directorial debut of the king of mockumentaries Christopher Guest.

A comedy murder mystery romance thriller directed by Woody Allen which sees the repairing of the delightful on screen partnership of Woody Allen and Diane Keaton.

John Candy plays a soap opera writer caught in his own fictional town with his own fictional creations.  Must be nice.

We continue looking at the early 90's comedies of Cameron's childhood, in this case the Kevin Kline dual role film Dave. A fictional Presidential comedy from the days where you could just about pull that sort of thing off.

So for the week of April, we are going back and looking at the comedies of cohost Cameron's childhood.  This week it's the mafia comedy My Blue Heaven starring Steve Martin and Rick Moranis.  But will the viewing experience be heaven or...not heaven?

So you know how exciting geopolitical conferences can be? Well imagine that but with ancient bog creatures!

A film that divided opinion here at the Better With Booze Film Club Podcast.  Tune in to find out where the lines were drawn.

We continue our trip through movies we missed in 2024 with Conclave.  With all the acting muscle on call here, how bad could it be?
