Isle of dogs, a lot more than this movie. In this latest foray into animation by the Fantastic Mr. Fox Director, a young boy crash-lands on a Japanese island, heaped with the nation’s deserted pups, in […]

FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E12: READY PLAYER ONE, PACIFIC RIM: UPRISING & BLOCKERS
Where we fight about the biggest wave of nostalgia to hit cinema screens, that rare sequel that’s leaps beyond the original and whether John Cena is the next big thing in comedy – […]
PACIFIC RIM: UPRISING
Sequels are sparingly better than their precursors. Pacific Rim: Uprising had a very low bar, and to the film’s credit it comfortably clears it. Does this make Uprising a great film, or at all memorable? […]
LOVE, SIMON
For interviews with Nick Robinson & Katherine Langford see here Simon is in high school. He’s your regular run-of-the-mill guy with better than average looks, the perfect family and friends with supporting roles in Marvel […]
READY PLAYER ONE
Nostalgia has never had such a big playground. There’s a question as to whether we need a film that is in so many ways derivative of readily available pop culture stalwarts, but then how many […]

Where we fight about what is a lot better in 4K – Annihilation – Wednesdays 7:30PM on 2SER

Breakfast reviews on 2SER 107.3 – In The Fade & Oscars 2018
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E9: OSCARS WRAP & GAME NIGHT
Where we fight about who won and who should have taken home gold at Hollywood’s night of nights and feature-length David Fincher parody Game Night with special guest Lisa Malouf from The Limerick […]
GAME NIGHT
No one asked for a David Fincher parody and we really, really should have. Game Night is perhaps most brazen for skewering a film, The Game, that has not superseded pop culture so greatly as […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E8: OSCAR PREDICTIONS & RED SPARROW
Where we fight about that most wonderful of nights and the latest of what will be many, many new takes on the state of US-Russia relations with special guest critic Hamish Wood – […]
RED SPARROW
Somewhere, in the bowels of every major studio, is a pile of screenplays that since late 1989 have slowly been gathering dust. On top of one of those piles was Red Sparrow. But for Charlotte […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E7: HAPPY END, FIFTY SHADES FREED, A FANTASTIC WOMAN & AWE
Where we fight about the worst title ever, the last time Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson have to make a Fifty Shades movie, Festival-favourite A Fantastic Woman and Awe, which has us very […]
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY SHADES OF GREY
Probably what Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson were saying to themselves as filming drew to a close, Fifty Shades Freed was always going to cop it. The third and least satisfying of the long-awaited E. […]
FILM FIGHT CLUB S2E6: BLACK PANTHER & LADY BIRD
Where we fight about the latest and very different entry into the Marvel canon and Greta Gerwig’s phenomenon Lady Bird with special guest Debbie Zhou from The Social Film Network – both in […]
