S3E3 - Wonder Woman and Logan

The Batman (2022) directed by Matt Reeves and starring Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz is the subject of todays conversation. A wide ensamble deticvite drama, this is not the typical DC offering of late. Mike and Mike dig in and try to crack the case on whether this version of Batman belongs to be perched atop the highest building in Gotham City or should be cast back into the shadows forever... We discuss wether we thought it was good... This movie also stars such movie starts as Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, Peter Sarsgaard, Andy Serkis, and Colin Farrell.

Nobody came out in 2021. Mike and Mike discuss.

Palm Springs is an R-rated comedy and possibly the best thing to come out in 2020. It's about two people stuck in a timeloop at a wedding. Luckily for us those two people are portrayed by Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti. This is streaming on hulu so you can check it out anytime. I recomend watching it over and over and over again.

The Trial of the Chicago 7 is the story of seven or so people on trial facing charges surrounding a riot at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois. Written and directed by Aaron Sorkin and starring Eddie Redmayne, Sacha Baron Cohen, Joseph Grodon-Levitt, Alex Sharp, Yahya Abdul-Mateen and a cast of great actors that you've enjoyed in other films but never learned thier names, this movie is techically very well done. Is that all there is to discuss? Not in the least. Mike and Mike bring you this episode recorded in late September 2020. Here's a time capsule of that unique time in hoistory discussing a movie about another unique time in history.  Enjoy.

Every once in a while a movie comes out that makes you say 'okay'... this is one of those.

Willy’s Wonderland was initially billed as an indoor entertainment center. However, over time it's gained a reputation as a now-defunct dilapidated house of horrors, hovering over the town in which it resides. Nic Cage skids into town and is tasked with restoring Wonderland to its previous glory. Meanwhile, a cast of rebellious teenagers has other plans, as do the building’s Animatronic inhabitants. Who wins out, only time will tell. Joined by returning guest Brian Wadsworth, Mike & Mike discuss the mayhem and mechanism of this frighteningly fun film.

On the latest episode of the Now and Then Movie Podcast Mike and Mike explore the numerous twists & turns of the 2020 Leigh Whannell-directed thriller-horror film (which one is it?) The Invisible Man. Starring Elisabeth Moss , as Cecilia Kass, the plot is centered around her fight against an imperceptible foe, one which tests the trust of both friends and family members alike. With a technological science-fiction component, yet a poignant palpable poignancy the film holds you on the edge of your seat. 

We dig into Hotel Artemis, the sleek bad-guy hotel action drama from 2018. It has a lot more going on than you might expect. Mike and Mike get into it. 

We watched the fast-paced and outlandish dark action comedy Guns Akimbo (2019) starring Daniel Radcliff and Samara Weaving. A ton of action and some social comentary. What did Mike and Mike think? You might be surprised.
