Episode #160: Avengement and The 2nd Annual Poindexter Awards

2nd Annual Poindexter Awards

Welcome faithful listeners to a super duper extra special double sized Reel Film Nerds podcast!  Today your host’s Mike Talent and Matt Hinshaw review a revenge film that is currently streaming on Netflix titled Avengement. The second half of our pod the guys finally get around to the 2nd Annual Poindexter Awards!  Of course there are bonus topics today like Cobra Kai, how many weeks old, and beer.

Avengement is a gritty, dark, and action packed film.  It is definitely not for everyone. The acting was great, the story was interesting, and the fight scenes were excellent.  This is the perfect film to put on if you are browsing through Netflix and want to watch a unique way to tell a revenge story.  Mike loved the film because you know he is obsessed with revenge films. He awards Avengement 4 out of 5 Reels.  Matt enjoy the British action flick but not nearly as much as Mr. Revenge Film.  He gives the movie 3 out of 5 Reels.

The second half of our pod we discuss our 2nd Annual Poindexter Awards!  Yes we are a week late but hey give us a break the guys are super busy, more than usual.  They still were able to celebrate our 2nd podcast birthday just a week late. Please don’t feel pressured to listen to the whole pod, it is a long one (That’s what she said).  Of course, we would prefer it if you did. There are a total of 25 categories and this year instead of the guys fighting it out for who gets what award they each have their own pick for each category winner.  Awards include Best Podcast, Worst Movie of the Year, and Favorite Movie Nerd to name a few.

We hope you enjoy our take on an awards show.  You must admit it is a heck of a lot shorter than the Academy Awards.  Next week the guys return with a Tributary cast review of Game Over Man, a Netflix Original comedy action spoof of Die Hard.  Chat with you then!
