I love bad movies. Occasionally, I also like to see a good movie, and this podcast has some very interesting things to say about both kinds. Hosted by Matty Robinson and Adam Kempenaar (a former Iowa City resident like myself), the reviews are insightful, especially because the pairs conversations often flush out the subtleties of a film that may not be otherwise apparent. Its best when they disagree; listen to their respective takes on The Fountain a bizarre little film, I grant you to get the flavor. Im especially fond of the top five lists (Top Five Mancrushes, Top Five Oliver Stone Scenes, etc.) and Massacre Theater, in which Robinson and Kempenaar read a scene from a movie, often poorly, for listeners to try to guess.
