The Breakdown of the Best Movies of 2021

2022 is finally here, but before we can officially kick 2021 out the door, we need to look back at it one last time. We do that with the biggest episode of the year in 'The Breakdown of the Best Movies of 2021'. Both Scott Martin and Christopher Spicer rank their top ten movies of the past year. It may not have been our favourite year or even what we considered an amazing movie year, but there were still many movies that we considered future classics. It is a great episode for those looking for movie recommendations, but also just want to find out what we loved this year. As always, we had a blast recording this episode, and if you love listening to it, then please support us by spreading the word on social media, so other movie fans can find us. Also don't forget we are on Spreaker , Spotify, Stitcher , Apple Podcast , Google Podcasts , CastBox , Amazon Music and wherever else you love to listen to your podcasts.

Time to Admit That I May Have Been Wrong About 'Malignant': The Joy of Changing Opinions on Movies

I'm starting to think that I was wrong about James Wan's latest horror picture, Malignant . The picture received a star and half out of four from me. I went in with high anticipation and walked out disappointed. I understood that Wan was creating a homage and love letter to 1980s style schlock horror like Re-Animator , Basket Case and Dead Alive. Those style of movies were about being creative within their minimal budget that afforded then some insane creative freedom.

The sequences at the end were betrayed by feeling like a bigger budget and polished picture rather than the horror movies of the past that it was following. The movie also had some pretty painful dialogue and some hammy acting, and while there were brilliant moments of directing, it was lethargically paced and dragged in the midd

The Breakdown of 'Hotel Transylvania: Transformania', 'Brazen', 'The Wasteland' and 'Four to Dinner'

One of the fun things about returning to the multiple review format is the diversity of movies we get to discuss. We have a big budget animated family adventure from a popular series in Hotel Transylvania: Tranformania. We also have a sexualized thriller starring Alyssa Milano, who was many boys from the 1980s first crush, in Brazen . Then it is off to Spain for a psychological supernatural horror in The Wasteland . We continue travelling the world by dropping into Italy for the romantic dramedy, Four to Dinner. We have even more movie talk after the reviews, as we look at the huge box office success of Spider-Man: No Way Home . We discuss the huge shocker that it became one of the highest grossing movies despite being in a pandemic and what this means for the future of movies. We also discuss what we think studios will learn from this, and what we think this will do for original movie ideas. As always, we loved recording the episode, and we really hope you love it too. And if you do,
