Sure, some years are better than others, but great movies come out every year. But in very few years has a film had the emotional impact HAMNET had in 2025. Even if it's not your favorite genre, your soul needs to see Chloé Zhao's HAMNET. Paul Mescal is great as William Shakespeare, but Jessie Buckley and Jacobi Jupe send this one into outer space. So let's talk about it...
Disney's ZOOTOPIA is criminally underrated. Can the sequel live up to the original? Some of us think so, while others don't. So let's talk about Nick Wilde, Judy Hopps, the Zee-bros, Nibbles Maplestick... and Ed Shear-en???
We’re unpacking Bugonia, a film that blends absurd comedy with pointed social commentary. From its bizarre premise to its surprisingly thoughtful moments, there’s a lot to explore. Let’s jump into what makes this movie stand out.
When you're making a movie based on a novel, the audience is expecting a faithful adaptation. So when director Dylan Southern was writing the screenplay for THE THING WITH FEATHERS, he had original author Max Porter involved throughout the process. We sat down with Southern and talked to him about the efforts he made, the pit stops of making his first non-documentary film and the movies that inspired him...
Glen Powell, Colman Domingo, Josh Brolin... THE RUNNING MAN should be a bigger hit than it is. It's a blockbuster/popcorn movie through and through, so how did it lose out to NOW YOU SEE ME 3? Let's talk about it...
The epic conclusion of WICKED is here with WICKED FOR GOOD. But does it compare to last year's masterpiece? Does Ariana Grande steal the show? Does Jeff Goldblum go full "Jeff Goldblum"? Is it a musical that audiences beyond musical fans should go see? Let's talk about it...
We spent some time with director Jan Komasa recently and he told us about the cast of his new movie ANNIVERSARY, what it was like trying to make a movie during the SAG-AFTRA strike and how ANNIVERSARY went from an idea during a family gathering to the big screen. So let's talk about it...
🎬 Netflix is short-changing one of the best thrillers of the year — A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE.In this episode of the Untitled Film Project Podcast, we break down Kathryn Bigelow’s latest nuclear-tension masterpiece and explain why watching it on Netflix can’t match the big-screen experience. We dive into the film’s powerful performances, layered storytelling, ambiguous ending and masterful use (and silence) of music.💥 Expect:* Honest first impressions and deep-dive analysis* Discussion of the movie’s shocking ending and “what would you do?” moments* Why Bigelow remains the queen of high-stakes realism* Our takes on how streaming releases affect great cinema🎥 Whether you love THE HURT LOCKER, ZERO DARK THIRTY, or just crave a smart political thriller, this conversation is for you. So let's talk about A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE...
There was so much to look forward to in TRON: ARES. The visuals were stunning, the actors had chops, the music was fire...but then the story came.Let's talk about TRON: ARES...
Amazon Prime Video is releasing JOHN CANDY: I LIKE ME, a documentary about the life of comedy legend John Candy. Through the eyes of those who knew him best, we gain a fascinating insight into one of the most beloved Canadians of the 20th century. This documentary is a must-see.
Critics are falling all over themselves when it comes to ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, with some going so far as to call it the best film of the decade. But is all that critical acclaim worthy of the hype? Let's talk about the new Paul Thomas Anderson film...
Typically, Darren Aronofsky's films are of high quality but can be challenging to watch. CAUGHT STEALING, thankfully, is very accessible! Austin Butler is tremendous in the dark comedy as a former San Francisco Giants draft pick and we were pleasantly surprised by this movie. So let's talk about it...
Making a special appearance at the 56th Annual Nashville Film Festival was actor Tonatiuh. The festival awarded him their Rising Star Award for his incredible performance as the lead in KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN (also starring Jennifer Lopez and Diego Luna). Sure to get some Oscar buzz for his portrayal of Luis Molina and Kendall Nesbitt in the musical film, Tonatiuh spent some time with us on the red carpet and chatted about working with veteran actors Lopez and Luna, his dance background that came into play here and how he's waited his whole life for a role like this.
During the 56th Annual Nashville Film Festival, we caught up with Matt Finlin, director of the new documentary MATTER OF TIME. Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder performs a series of shows in Seattle to raise awareness about a disease called EB, which primarily affects children. Finlin walks us through how Vedder approached him, what it was like to show the film to the patient's families and what it was like living with the heavy subject material while making the movie.
There's an awful lot to like about Spike Lee's newest film, HIGHEST 2 LOWEST. Unfortunately, there's also a lot to dislike about it. Denzel Washington and Jeffrey Wright are spectacular -- especially when they're on the screen together -- but A$AP Rocky might've been a casting misstep. So let's talk about it...
AXEL F and HAPPY GILMORE 2, for example, were legacy sequels released just for streaming. In the court of public opinion, they didn't do well and we think they were hurt by zero theatrical release. So, thankfully, SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES gets it right! Go laugh with like-minded people who enjoy the original! So let's talk about it...
We've been fans of stand-up comic Joe Kwaczala since we saw his Comedy Central half-hour special back in 2019. So when we found out he was doing a movie about stand-up -- in the mockumentary style -- we knew we had to talk with him about it. Hear about how AMERICAN COMIC came together, the hustle behind getting into film festivals all over the country and how he wants it to be the SPINAL TAP for comedians.
There is zero reason this movie should work. It's an hour and 40 minutes of dudes walking. But, holy smokes, what a movie! The performances are great, the concept is great, the drama is great and the finale is great. THE LONG WALK has earned its place among 2025's best! So let's talk about it...
We were excited to see THE NAKED GUN being remade, but we could never shake the feeling of "Can they do that in 2025???" So let's talk about it...
We've heard so much about KPOP DEMON HUNTERS, so we gave it a watch. The result? Middle-aged men raving about a film aimed at a younger audience. If that doesn't speak volumes...
