    162. Supergirl (1984)
    2026/06/02

    This week, we review Supergirl (1984), Jeannot Szwarc’s fantasy-tinged superhero spin-off from the Superman saga. Helen Slater stars as Kara Zor-El, Superman’s cousin from Krypton, who journeys to Earth in search of a powerful lost artifact—and ends up battling an ambitious witch, played by Faye Dunaway, in a clash of cosmic and campy proportions. With a mix of magical showdowns, high school hijinks, and earnest alien fish-out-of-water charm, this film expands the DC Universe in unexpected and often bizarre directions.

    Is saving the world a family affair or just super awkward? Listen on to find out!

  • 161. Masters of the Universe (1987)

    161. Masters of the Universe (1987)
    2026/05/26

    This week, we review Masters of the Universe (1987), Gary Goddard’s sci-fi fantasy cult classic that blasts He-Man from Eternia straight into suburban Earth. Dolph Lundgren stars as the mighty He-Man, squaring off against Frank Langella’s gloriously theatrical Skeletor in a battle for the cosmic key — and the fate of the universe. With its wild mix of swords, lasers, synth scores, and fish-out-of-water hijinks, this Cannon Films production reimagines the beloved Mattel toy line with a decidedly '80s flair.

    Is it By the Power of Grayskull or just a powerfully bad idea? Listen on to find out!

  • 160. Mortal Kombat (1995)

    160. Mortal Kombat (1995)
    2026/05/19

    This week, we review Mortal Kombat (1995), Paul W.S. Anderson's action-packed martial arts fantasy based on the iconic Midway video game franchise. Robin Shou, Linden Ashby, and Bridgette Wilson star as Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, and Sonya Blade — three warriors chosen to fight in an ancient interdimensional tournament to save Earth from the clutches of the evil sorcerer Shang Tsung, played by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. With Christopher Lambert presiding over the chaos as the thunder god Raiden, and Outworld already sitting on nine wins out of ten, the stakes couldn't be higher. This film raises intriguing questions about what it truly means to fight for humanity — and whether a dodgy CGI lizard man is really the best line of defence.

    Is Mortal Kombat a finishing move or a finishing disaster? Listen on to find out!

  • 159. Snatch (2000)

    159. Snatch (2000)
    2026/05/12

    This week, we review Snatch (2000), Guy Ritchie's frenetic British crime comedy set deep in the London criminal underworld. Jason Statham, Brad Pitt, Benicio del Toro, and Vinnie Jones star as a chaotic ensemble of boxing promoters, gangsters, and small-time crooks in a story that explores greed, chaos, and the butterfly effect of criminality. With two intertwining plots — a priceless stolen 84-carat diamond and a bare-knuckle boxing fix gone very wrong — this film raises intriguing questions about whether luck, loyalty, or sheer mayhem is what really rules the underworld.

    Is Snatch a diamond in the rough, or just a rough diamond? Listen on to find out!

    158. Cyborg 2: Glass Shadow (1993)
    2026/05/05

    This week, we review Cyborg 2: Glass Shadow (1993), Michael Schroeder's cyberpunk sci-fi action B-movie set in a future dominated by corporate warfare and synthetic humans. Angelina Jolie and Elias Koteas star as Cash Reese and Colt Ricks — a cyborg assassin and her combat trainer — in a story that explores identity, autonomy, and what it means to be human. With Cash literally packed with a liquid explosive called "Glass Shadow" and used as a walking weapon by the ruthless Pinwheel Corporation, this film raises intriguing questions about who truly owns your body — and your soul.

    Is this Jolie's most explosive early role, or just a blast from the B-movie past? Listen on to find out!

  • 157. Isle of Dogs (2018)

    157. Isle of Dogs (2018)
    2026/04/28

    This week, we review Isle of Dogs (2018), Wes Anderson's gloriously quirky stop-motion animated sci-fi comedy-drama set in a dystopian near-future Japan. Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Jeff Goldblum, and Bob Balaban star as a ragtag pack of exiled dogs in a story that explores loyalty, rebellion, and political corruption. With all of Megasaki City's canines banished to a garbage-dump called Trash Island following a government-enforced decree, twelve-year-old Atari crash-lands on the island in search of his beloved dog Spots — and sets off an epic journey that could change the fate of dogs everywhere. This film raises intriguing questions about authoritarianism, prejudice, and what it truly means to be man's best friend.

    Is Isle of Dogs a ruff deal or the paw-fect film? Listen on to find out!

  • 156. Phone Booth (2002)

    156. Phone Booth (2002)
    2026/04/21

    This week, we review Phone Booth (2002), Joel Schumacher’s razor-tight psychological thriller about guilt, vanity, and public exposure. Colin Farrell stars as slick publicist Stu Shepard, with Kiefer Sutherland as the chilling unseen Caller and Forest Whitaker as the police captain caught in the chaos, in a story that explores morality under pressure. With one man trapped in a phone booth by a sniper who knows all his secrets, this film raises intriguing questions about truth, punishment, and whether people only change when they are forced to.

    Is this one call too close for comfort or a ringing endorsement of high-concept thriller madness? Listen on to find out!

  • 155. Assault on Precinct 13 (1976)

    155. Assault on Precinct 13 (1976)
    2026/04/14

    This week, we review Assault on Precinct 13 (1976), John Carpenter’s gritty action-thriller that blends urban crime drama with siege-movie tension. Austin Stoker, Darwin Joston, and Laurie Zimmer star as a small group of strangers trapped inside a nearly abandoned Los Angeles police station as relentless gang members lay siege to the building. With dwindling ammunition, shifting alliances, and nowhere to run, the film becomes a tense battle for survival that helped define Carpenter’s minimalist style and pulsing synth score.

    With its claustrophobic setting, morally grey anti-heroes, and slow-burn suspense, the film raises intriguing questions about loyalty, survival, and what happens when the thin line between law and outlaw disappears.

    Is Precinct 13 a safe haven… or just a waiting room for the inevitable shootout? Listen on to find out!
