Welcome to 2019 everyone! Today your insane host’s Mysterious Mike and Matt review a movie everyone in the world has probably seen but we are reviewing it anyways, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Matt has a full-on nerd melt down so here’s your warning. It is not as bad as when we review a Star Wars movie, but it is pretty dang close. Topics today also include snow, IMAX, the Universal Monsters, and finally our podcast goals for 2019.
The guys agree Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is a ground-breaking film and really should be seen by everyone. It is like watching a comic book come to life on the big screen. The animation is out of this world, the voice acting is incredible, and the story is just a whole lot of fun to say the least. Matt loved this movie. There were very very minor issues with it in his eyes just enough to drop it down a little bit from a perfect score. He awards Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse a 4.5 out of 5 Reels. Mike also loved this film but not as much as Matt. He is quickly becoming a film curmudgeon, and nothing is ever good enough for one of those. He gives the animated Spider-Man flick a respectable 4 out of 5 Reels.
Winter Movie-pocalypse 2018 comes to a head this Thursday when your hosts attempt to review not 1, not 2, but 3, yes 3 movies in one podcast! The 3 films in reviewed order are Bumblebee, Welcome to Marwen, and Vice.
