The Movie Review Crew

A film that none of us likely would have never seen before, Suspiria. Directed by Dario Argento, this 1970s mystery-horror brings a series of strange murders and mystical feelings to a ballet school. It is up to the lead, Suzy to discover exactly what is going on. We dive deep into this film, and tell you exactly how good or bad it really is. Check out this episode to find out exactly what we thou...

We hit the ground running with this episode! Right off the top we preface it with, Mindhunters is not a good film, which saves anyone time from taking this episode too seriously... which is exactly what Mindhunters did. Although it may not be good or perfect, this film brings together a bad cast and poor directing. So it's a hot mess.. maybe in a good way? Check out Mindhunters and click on this e...

To kick off an entire month of horror films, we decided to start with one of the best, John Carpenter's The Thing. Unlike many new horror movies, The Thing builds suspense, and doesn't rely on cheap jump-scare tactics. Starring Kurt Russell, and pretty much no other big names, this film takes you into the Antarctic wilderness to discover alien life. Check out this episode to see what we exactly th...

Bigger than a township, but smaller than a city. This week we bring you a review of The Village. In what may be a case of a bad script made good, this film brings you one of M. Night Shyamalan noteworthy twists. The film stars Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody, Dallas Bryce Howard, and William Hurt among others, and brings to life a wonderful love story with many drama/thriller elements. Check out thi...

Join us as we get into our very first review featuring a guest! This week we opened our studio up and brought NBRR&M mega-fan Margaret in to join us in a review of Death Becomes Her. The movie stars Bruce Willy, Goldie Hawn, and Meryl Streep and gets zanier as the movie progresses. We all agreed that this has a very Beetlejuice, Tim Burton, Addams Family vibe to it. Don't take this text's word for...

Unfortunately we are not reviewing a Tombstone pizza this week, we are reviewing the Wyatt Earpian flick Tombstone. (Although I probably would've given a Tombstone pizza a better score, just saying). Join us as we dive into this old-west action flick that stars Val Kilmer, Bill Paxton, a dude with a huge stache, and another guy with a stache twice the size of the other guy's. I make jokes; point i...

Helloooooooo people! This week we're reviewing a movie that literally (not literally) everyone has seen! This week we bring you Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory which stars Gene Wilder, not the crappy remake with Johnny Depp. In this episode we ramble (as usual), and think way too into the universe this is set in, and how Willy Wonka might possibly be a murderer.. Join us to get a clue about wh...

In odd fashion, we decided to review Odd Thomas this week. That was a poor decision because there were some.. different choices made during the production of this film. Twisted through a spectrum of tones, this film is saved by the last few minutes and Anton Yelchin's performance. Check out our show for the full bashfest. We also give you our Top 5 guilty pleasures - which are all amazing of cours...

Early released episode because why not! Recently a bunch of the reviewers at NBRR&M went and saw Hell or High Water, and we liked it so much, we vetoed the listener request so we could review this! Starring Jeff Bridges, Chris Pine, and Ben Foster, Hell Or High Water is a masterpiece that brings in amazing acting to a awesomely directed tale. Check out this episode on why you NEED to see this film...

A review of the oldest of the new Star Trek movies is finally here! Starring Chris Pine, Karl Urban, and Zachary Quinto among others, this J.J. Abrams franchise-reboot strikes gold. We dive deep into the Trek universe, breaking down and discussing everything from the lens-flare riddled visuals to the over emotional Spock. Listen in and hear what we have to say about this new classic.  Also, a new...

The term "having zero expectations" sums up our thoughts before watching this week's listener request, Magic Mike. The film, which stars Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, and Cody Horn, is much more than just fan-service to ladies everywhere. While it does have several scenes with men stripping, the story goes far beyond that. It surprised a few of our reviewers to say the least. Check out this week'...

I'm going to be coy about telling you which movie we review in this episode, but if you need some help guessing I'll give you a Clue. That is more than you'll get from this week's movie to try to figure out the Scooby-Doo type murder mystery. With an almost impossible amount of evidence to point out the right murderer, Clue is an a wonderful 80's flick that had most of us laughing. Starring mostly...

In this week's listener request, we bring you Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind. Although it has not been confirmed, this flick is the film adaptation of Chuck Barris' memoir in which he says he was a CIA operative and hitman, while hosting and creating several game shows. The film stars several big names, including Sam Rockwell, George Clooney, and Drew Barrymore to name a few, but none of them are...

Better late than never! The podcast the world has been waiting for is finally here, a review of the Philip K. Dick novel turned Spielberg classic, Minority Report. Starring Tom Cruise and Colin Farrell, this masterpiece is set in a world in which murders can be predicted and stopped before they happen. However, when crime-prevention Detective John Anderton, played by Tom Cruise, is put in the midd...

YES! The hotly anticipated review of Fast Five! It has been a long time coming, and damn are we glad it's here! Join us as we dive deep into this mess of an action flick that stars Paul Walker, Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, and Ludacris, just to name a few. We're not even going to waste your time by explaining the film, because if you're not familiar with the Fast & Furious franchise, you must be li...

We're all up for films being new and different, but It Follows might have taken that to another level. In what is "best" described as an std demon, It Follows has exactly this, and for some reason it works! The film as a whole, not the demon. This week we broke down a film of this horror film, and gave it surprisingly good scores. Be sure to check out this episode, and all of our other NBRR&M epis...

In a NBRR&M first, we decide to review the review of an awful, awful movie. That's right, we are reviewing a film from Mystery Science Theater 3000! And boy was this one a stinker! Although MST3K are intentionally awful movies, this one may take the cake. Not even witty banter or small side scenes could save this one. Check out this episode to get the full scoop on how bad Space Mutiny really is....

Hell yeah we're talking about Keanu this week, but we're not reviewing The Matrix or Speed. No, we're actually reviewing Keanu. As in the Key and Peele film about the super cute and cuddly cat named Keanu. Check us out this week as we break down what makes the TV series turned movie-spectacular successful, and how it falls flat. Listen to this, and all of our other episodes and let us know what yo...

Nothing says Monday like a listener request episode of NBRR&M! Let's kick in this work-week with the sounds of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. This film stars many recognizable faces, but just few recognizable names (aside from Jason Statham who does a disappointing amount of backflips in this flick.) Although many consider this crime-comedy a solid piece, it left some of our reviewers feelin...

Whether it was initially intended to be part of the Cloverfield franchise or not, 10 Cloverfield Lane is still part of the same universe. This week we here at NBRR&M broke down 10 Cloverfield Lane. In this film you get exceptional acting from John Goodman, along with an extremely interesting storyline! But don't take this text box's word for it, check out our full audio version of the review! (I m...

Not gonna lie, this episode is pretty dope. This week we dove into a hotly anticipated viewer request, Dope. The film stars several no names, with ASAP Rocky, a rapper, being the biggest on the sheet. When Malcolm gets stuck selling drugs to make his way into Harvard (totally makes more sense in the context of the film) wacky antics ensue. Check out this episode, every other episode, and Dope!

The Fountain, an extremely emotionally touching movie. That is of course if you have a soul. We break down Hugh Jackman's amazing acting, as well as all of the key components on what makes The Fountain the movie it is. Also, we break down the totally ambiguous ending to help you think about it yourself! Be sure to check out this episode, and every other episode of NBRR&M.

What on Earth could possibly be better than a movie starring two of the world's best actors? A movie review podcast reviewing that movie, that's what! This week we dive deep into The Revenant. Starring Leonardo Dicaprio and Tom Hardy, this Alejandro Inarittu film is about Hugh Glass, an 1820s trapper who is seeking vengeance on a member of his hunting party after being left for dead. The film won...

WEEEEEEE'RRREEEE BAAAAAACCCCKKKK! Sorry for such a long hiatus; vacations had to take place. Regardless, we bring you an excellent review of the Christopher Nolan masterpiece Memento. As always, we fill this episode with plenty terrible jokes, Bane impressions, but most importantly just amazingness in general. My description writing skills may have dropped off a bit since the last time I had to wr...

Not quite black, yet not quite white, this week we reviewed The Grey. Starring Liam Neeson, who's commonly referred to as "One Of The Most BA Old Guys Ever," this film takes place in the mighty tundra where our lead actor has to fight off dozens of hungry wolves. Awesome stuff. Check out this episode to get our full thoughts on this flick, as well as a new segment we introduced known as "We Were G...
