On this week's What We've Been Watching episode of the podcast, the team have another four reviews for you - helping you to decide what to watch next!

We start off in horror territory with host Justin visiting 2016's Stephen King adaptation, Cell, starring John Cusack and Samuel L Jackson; and then Richard heads to Sweden (most dangerous country in Europe according to the IMDB log line!) for 2017's The Ritual.

After that, Neil tells us all about Good Fortune, the guardian angel comedy starring, written, and directed by Aziz Ansari, as well as featuring Keanu Reaves and Seth Rogen. Finally, Darren wraps things up with a review of the latest film from director Paul Thomas Anderson - One Battle After Another - which stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn, among many others.

Listen in to hear what we thought, and then get in touch to let us know your thoughts about these movies or anything else that you've been watching.

New Episode Alert 🚨

For this week's episode, we have the fourth of this year's special episodes recorded live at Grays Town Park Cafe - a great place for coffee, cake and plenty of (movie) chat!

This week's host Richard decided to use this episode to find out a little more about his fellow mulls and prepared 5 questions for us to answer:

1. If you could only watch one genre of movies, what would it be and why?
2. What is a movie that no one seems to talk about but you think everyone should watch?
3. What is a film that everyone loves, but you just don't get?
4. Which film sequel should NEVER have been made?
5. What movie has the best ending?

Listen in to find out our answers, but we'd also love to hear your own! Get in touch and let us know... especially those films that have flown under the radar - we love a recommendation!

New Episode Alert 🚨

"Paris is always a good idea," said Audrey Hepburn. And who are we to disagree?

This week's host, Darren, is taking his fellow mulls on a (sadly imaginary) world tour to visit some of the globe's great movie locations. And what better place to start than the city of light, romance and great food: Paris.

Together, the mulls share their favourite movies that take place in the city, and - alongside some listener responses - share what has been collectively voted as the greatest Parisian movie of all time.

But did we get it wrong? After listening, we'd love to hear about your favourite Paris movies... as well as any other world locations that you think we should stop off at in future episodes of the pod.

Until next week - au revoir!

New Podcast Episode Alert! 🚨

This week, our host Neil challenged his fellow mulls to rise up against the tidal wave of supposed superhero fatigue by talking about some of the superhero movies that might have gone unseen or forgotten.

Nothing from the most recent iterations of the Marvel and DC extended or cinematic universes was allowed - but anything else superhero-related is fair game.

Listen in and then let us know your own favourites... From the Ninja Turtles to the Crow, from Darkman to Superbob, who's still 'super' to you? 🦸🏽‍♀️🦸🏻‍♂️🍿

This week, we have another pair of reviews from a pair of mulls!

First up, Neil reviews a family-friendly adventure comedy which may have flown slightly under the radar. Starring Elijah Wood as an estranged magician father forced to reunite with his independent young daughter, Mildred, played by Nell Fisher, Bookworm is available now for streaming online.

Then, Darren shares his thoughts about the latest movie from the iconic American director, Spike Lee. This remake and reimagining of an original movie by Akira Kurosawa, Highest 2 Lowest sees director Lee reunited with screen legend Denzel Washington. How does this resituating of the story from Japan to the current day New York music scene measure up? Available now to watch on Apple TV.

Have you managed to catch either of these? If so, let us know what you thought - as well as what you've been watching recently.
