Did it disappoint or did it creep us out? Or did it do a little bit of both? Listen to hear our thoughts on that and the underseen mind-bender 'It's What's Inside', out now on Netflix.

Get ready to witness 'the overwhelming indifference of nature,' as this week we take a look at movies starring deadly animals.

One guess to figure out what the movie's about.

The boys are back from their hiatus with a hot fresh review of a moive that's 20 years old! Goodness, how time flies. They've been away so long that Batman Begins is now retro and Jack has a child.

It's not the size that matters but what you do with it. This is our ethos this week as we have a very short episode for you in a bit of a different format. This is because Jack has had a baby and is on paternity leave! Congratulations to him and his partner! But never fear, Cameron has reviews of Friendship and Another Round in our male mid-life crisis spectacular. Hope you enjoy and find some peace, unlike our protagonists.

It's exaclty what the world needs right now: two white men offering their opinion on a film about segregation in the southern United States, the cultural importance of the Blues, and how music created by black people is the origin for all modern popular genres. In all seriousness, this film is full of amazing insight and is well-worth having a phat conversation about, which is exactly what we did this week. Listen now to hear what we think about what some are calling 'the best film of the year!'
