Episode #96: Legacy – The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot

Happy post hump day aka Friday eve?  Anyways today is Thursday which means new podcast day!  Our review is about a film you probably never heard of but stars someone you have The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot starring Sam Elliott.  Outside topics include MTV Unplugged, Letterboxd, and Captain Marvel.

The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot is not what you would expect.  It really caught your hosts off guard.  The title comes off as a really fun B movie but it’s not.  This movie is very serious and very sad.  It is not a bad movie but it is not incredible either.  The acting is great especially by Sam Elliott.  The sets and cinematography are breath taking especially the outside shots in Canada and Germany.  The amazing title that throws you for a loop definitely hurt the ratings from your hosts.  Matt enjoyed the movie but did not think it was great.  He gives the film 2.5 out of 5 Reels.  Mike Talent also liked The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot but was stunned by the tone and feel of the movie.  He awards it 2 out of 5 Reels.

Next week we will be reviewing a western that came out the same week as Captain Marvel that is being overshadowed by it big time, The Kid based on the infamous Billy the Kid.  Our second film is a brand new Netflix Original that dropped yesterday, Triple Frontier.  It is an action film that takes place south of the border and has an amazing star studded cast to boot!  Chat with you next week everyone.

If you have a film you would like to hear Matt and Mike review feel free to email us at nerds@reelfilmnerds.com Thank you for liking, subscribing, rating, reviewing, and telling your friends about our podcast. Now go out and catch a movie!

Episode #93: Legacy – Green Lantern

Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday is NEW PODCAST DAY!  Today Matt and Mike fill a Legacy Cast request from an avid listener and friend of the show BJ one of the hosts’ of our sister pods The Blue Milk Podcast, where they talk about anything and everything Star Wars related and then some.  BJ enjoys torturing Matt and times and I am sure this suggestion was one of those times, he requested 2011’s Green Lantern.  Topics more interesting than this film include the upcoming Prescott based film Wish Man, listener love, and the true potential of the DC Extended Universe.

This movie is just rough.  Your hosts do not recommend you spend any time watching it unless you really want to see how far superhero films have come in the past 8 years.  There are moments that are not as horrible as others but for the most part this movie is a hard pass.  Mike Talent enjoyed it more on his second viewing and graciously gives Green Lantern 2 out of 5 Reels.  Matt on the other hand didn’t.  He gives the movie 1 out of 5 Reels.

This Thursday the guys chat about an Amazon Original film The Lost City of Z.  Captain Marvel comes out this Friday too, don’t forget!  Your hosts will hopefully make it to the theaters this weekend and will give you their review of 2019’s first MCU film.  Thanks for listening and don’t forget to shoot us an email riddled with hate or request a film to review or both!  Please tell your friends and family about our fun little pod especially if you hate it.  We will be back on Thursday to chat at you with another movie review while drinking a beer or two or three.

Episode #86: Legacy – The Other Guys

Are you as excited as we are?  It’s only a week until our 1 year anniversary and the first ever Poindexter Awards!!!  While we both are forced to wait we have a very fun Legacy Cast for you, Adam McKay and Will Ferrell’s The Other Guys.  Extracurricular topics include Matt’s coworkers, our love of Michael Keaton, and do docudramas do more than entertain?

Mike and Matt just love this movie so much so all they did was talk about their favorite parts of it for the entire podcast.  The Other Guys is really underrated.  It is a much better film than the critics say it is.  The jokes and writing are fantastic and the comedic timing is just about perfect.  The action is great especially from a mostly comedic director.  The inclusion of The Rock and Samuel L. Jackson although very brief is an amazing and fun surprise.  Matt gives the film 4 out of 5 Reels.  Mike in that rare occasion has a higher rating than Matt.  He gives The Other Guys 4.5 out of 5 Reels.

Don’t forget to go vote for your movie of the year on our Facebook page.  The poll will come to a close when we record this coming Sunday.  The guys promised only one podcast next week well they lied.  They both really want to watch and discuss Liam Neeson’s Taken in a blizzard better known as Cold Pursuit.  Look for that one on Tuesday and the highly anticipated Poindexter Awards on Thursday!  Have an incredible weekend and make sure you go out and catch a movie!

Episode #84: Legacy – Bomb City

Are you ready for your last pod of the week?  No?  Well here it is anyways.  Today your hosts Mysterious Mike Talent and drunken Matt review a little known film based on a true story, Bomb City.  The movie takes place in a small Texas town between two very different clashing social classes.  Bonus topics today include #OE4Life, SLC Punk, and your hosts’ high school days.

Bomb City is a very good film.  The story is extremely compelling and the way it was told was unique and misdirecting.  The acting was not the best by some of the supporting cast but the stars shined brightly.  The scenes were setup well and the sets looked great mostly because they were filmed on location in Texas.  The dance through the story’s timeline was unique and did not always work.  The story though is what really makes this movie great.  Mysterious Mike Talent and dumb drunken Matt both agree that Bomb City deserves 4 out of 5 Reels.

The guys are still working out what to watch for next week.  Once again the movie theaters do not have much coming out.  It is awards season so it is expected.  Don’t forget to vote for your favorite film of the year and podcast of the year for our first Poindexter Awards.  Have a nice weekend and we will chat at you on Tuesday!
