Apparently the solution is a secret government department, matching suits and absolutely no meaningful oversight whatsoever.</p><p><br></p><p>This week, Alice and Neil are heading back to the glorious world of 1990s sci-fi comedy: a time when Will Smith could save the planet before lunch, Tommy Lee Jones could communicate an entire emotional range by moving one eyebrow, and an intergalactic immigration crisis could apparently be solved with sunglasses, paperwork and a suspiciously shiny pen.</p><p><br></p><p>We genuinely love this film. Really. Which is precisely why we have questions.</p><p><br></p><p>Questions like: who approved this recruitment process? Why is nobody remotely concerned about workplace health and safety? How many innocent civilians have had their memories wiped because somebody couldn&#39;t be bothered explaining themselves? And at what point does dealing with giant extraterrestrial insects stop being a government job and start requiring considerably better overtime?</p><p><br></p><p>Expect aliens, conspiracy theories, questionable employment practices, enormous cockroaches, tiny guns, exploding heads, 90s nostalgia and two people applying a completely unreasonable amount of adult logic to a film that absolutely did not ask for it.</p><p><br></p><p>If you love funny movie podcasts, film reviews, movie roasts, retro movies, 90s movies, sci-fi comedy, cult classics, nostalgic cinema, Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones or simply listening to two friends lovingly dismantle films they adore, welcome in.</p><p><br></p><p>We love it. Really. That&#39;s why we&#39;re roasting it.</p><p><br></p><p><img src=\"https://fonts.gstatic.com/s/e/notoemoji/17.0/26a0_fe0f/72.png\" alt=\"⚠️\"> CONTENT WARNING: Strong language, spoilers and a frankly unnecessary amount of sexual conversation.
