The Other Half

Bruce Willis can make a weird movie. Part heist film/screwball comedy, it doesn't do either of those well, but it has heart and an off-putting sense of humor. Also, it's the best Assassin's Creed movie in existence. Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!

Phelan is back to bring young girl wish fulfillment movies to The Other Half! This time we tackle Hilary Duff's alter-ego in The Lizzie McGuire Movie. A Disney movie set in Italy what could go wrong? I sure hope she doesn't fall in love with a strange Italian man who will lead her down a path of doom and destruction. Nah, if movies have taught me anything is that strangers are always bad,...

The best way to get someone to leave their parents place is to hire someone to fall in love with them. What happens after they move out? Do they break up? The premise of this movie is set up to fail from the get-go. Matthew McConaughey charms and chemistry with Sarah Jessica Parker don't help, if anything they hurt this poorly made script.

Sometimes just you gotta watch a movie no one has heard of (or should hear of) to remember what a truly bad and incompetent movie is. We can only wait for The Last Jedi remake to match a quality movie like this. The plot is basically: what happens when a playboy turns into a dog during the day and a man at night? Can he fall in love in a healthy relationship? Can there be a soundtrack in this movi...

Look, comedies are a weird genre to put on the podcast, but romantic comedies are golden eggs. This year we've found one of the best/worst romantic comedies we've seen in a long time. Alright. Alright. Alright. Also, this has a great story about mile high clubs... Check out https://shop.theotherhalfpodcast.com/ to help support the show and get your room some cool art!

Bedknobs and Broomsticks is the rejected Mary Poppins we've all been clamoring for. in some ways, it deserves more recognition than it gets. It's a better movie with worse songs and even less animation. But man when it has animation it really embellishes it.

One of the biggest surprises success in the box office is also a surprise success in our hearts. It didn't matter that our stomachs were full of alcohol, Speed won us over. Maybe it was Keanu Reeve's cool nature. Maybe it was the fact that this movie never lets up. Or maybe it's the part when the 707 jet blows up. That was awesome. Have a listen!

"Hey, this feels like it was written by a child." "It was indeed written by a literal child." "Oh, that explains a lot." "While going through divorce." "OH WHAT."   This movie is written by Robert Rodriguez's son and boy does it feel like it. It has more CGI than Spawn, is in GLORIOUS 3D and makes absolutely makes NO sense. There are so many effects hous...

The original Blues Brothers was a classic. One of the best SNL movies around. Now, what happened when they decided to make a sequel to it? They forgot to write the jokes! Ethan and Mike grab their Blues Brother loving friend, Sam, to guide them through the awful and disappointing sequel. Want a sweet pair of headphones to upgrade your sound quality and aesthetics?

Mia and Andy chew Mad Dog Bubble Gum with the boys in this adventurous Disney romp set all the way back in medieval times. Also, take a look at the movie's poster. This thing truly is a product of its time. Check out https://shop.theotherh...

DANGER WILL ROBINSON, DANGER. This CGI may hurt your eyes. Or maybe the atrocious acting coupled with bad ADR will. Or maybe it's the insane science handwaving that may as well make this a science fantasy movie will. Who knows Will Robinson. All you know is your dad will abandon you and you'll become friends with a spider! This 1998 remote the boys remember seeing this movie, but the plot...

WHAT IF INSTEAD OF A CRAZY SCIENCE EXPERIMENT THAT CHANGES PEOPLE INTO ANIMALS... A CRAZY SCIENCE EXPERIMENT THAT CHANGED ANIMALS INTO BIGGER ANIMALS?! Why not? Is it easier to just deal with when writing a script right? This is the Rock's latest adventure based on the hit video game series. It's a SMASHING good time... for one of us.

We may or may not be on an Arnold streak here, but here's one of his other famous movies, not to be mixed up with the Predator, Commando! I sure hope this movie in the '80s isn't filled with misogyny, racism or transphobia! This will be the one! I BET IT WILL BE. Well, it has lots of dummy's falling off cliffs, one-liners and murder to make up for it. Als,o Ricardo is here to help!...

HAPPY UNOFFICIAL EASTER MOVIE!!! The boys jump into the biggest Easter egg hunt movie of all time. Will the fantasy/sci-fi movie hold up over the intense scrutiny of two boys who walked out halfway through the movie? Is this Steven Spielberg's new Jurassic Park? Or is it his worst movie yet? Look we spend almost an hour and a half talking about this movie and its cultural impact. It's a lo...

Take all the whimsy out of Alice and Wonderland, but add more "stuff" to it and here's what you get: A screen overblown with nonsensical characters and terrible dialogue. Doesn't matter. I guess it'll make a ton of money and warrant a sequel! What's wrong with people?   Who is looking forward to that live action Dumbo remake directed by Tim Burton??   Check out https://shop...

Everyone says this movie is as excellent as "a pair of titties that make you wanna stand up and beg for buttermilk," but does it really hold up with dialogue as witty as that?

Warwick Davis is a pot and murder loving Leprechaun in the 4th movie in the Leprechaun series and sort of a soft reboot. This movie was straight to DVD in 2000...

It's our last movie of Oscar month! It's weird watching a movie with the guy from the Americans being almost a spy for the Americans instead of Russians. It makes me never trust him... even though history says I should I just don't. Maybe I'll only ever trust him with a wig on.
