Episode 72 - Mixtape

We have returned to Earth to talk about a movie about family, friends, grief and how music can help bring us together and heal. We also did some homework to create some mixtape style playlists of our own with some fun stories about our family.

 

Review: Netflix Teen Comedies

 

Netflix Teen Comedies

 

So my wife and I checked out these two teen comedies. What drew us to them was the music theme in both. Both have moments of cheesiness but the moral in the endings are good and for good background laughs and heartwarming scenes I’d recommend checking these out. The music really stands out though. Mixtape covers many genres while Metal Lords is clearly engrossed with Heavy Metal with cameos from metal greats and Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine as a producer. So if you just want to check out some great music, put these movies on and enjoy.

REVIEWS!

Matthew here and I have a couple short reviews for a couple movies I’ve watched lately.

 

The Batman: 3 of 5 stars. Too long but great casting and i didn’t like the ending. Good start to a new Batman franchise though.

 

The VVitch: 4 of 5 stars. Its a slow burn but the directing is good and the ending is awesome. Great jump scares too.

 

The Lords of Salem: 4 of 5 stars. By far my favorite Rob Zombie movie. Not a fan of gorefest movies. This is Rob doing his best Kubrick.

 

Dr. Strange 2: 4 of 5 stars. Loved what Sam Raimi did here and all the Marvel movies are pretty fun…

 

…Except…

 

The Eternals: 0 stars. I could go on and on about how boring this movie is but I’m bored just thinking about it.

 

Lastly,

 

Pig: 5 of 5 stars. Its simple. Great acting and directing. It’ll make you hungry. Also, im not a nic cage fan but this might be his best role.
