In Reel Deep Podcast

We're back to discuss the top movies of 2023! Oppenheimer, Anatomy of a Fall, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, or The Holdovers: Which film was our pick for the best of the year? We're also talking Barbie, Napoleon, Beau Is Afraid, and the sudden (and exciting) downturn of the MCU.

We're back, again! Just ahead of the Oscars, Andrew and Steve return to discuss their top 10 films of 2022. What will be their no. 1? Will Lydia Tár dominate the charts, or is Elvis back from the dead and ready to win gold? What about Decision to Leave, Park Chan-wook's romantic cop thriller? And don't forget Avatar: The Way of Water and Top Gun: Maverick! Join us as we discuss dozens of the hit movies from last year.

We're back! Now that the 2022 Oscars and The Slap are history, we thought there was no better time to reanimate the In Reel Deep Podcast and highlight our own choices for the finest films of 2021. Join us as we discuss the state of cinema now that theaters have reopened and go through our top 10 lists to choose a movie of the year. The Power of the Dog, The Last Duel, West Side Story: Which one will be No. 1? The only way to find out is to listen!

We're wrapping up our 2020 journey through Christmas movies with a bang: It's a Wonderful Life, the 1946 masterpiece that's both a holiday classic and an all-time wonderful film. In a slight twist for our December episodes, we get in real (reel) deep and speculate about director Frank Capra's message, star Jimmy Stewart's acting prowess, and whether a light Christmas touch makes for better films overall.

What exactly is a "British Christmas zombie musical film"? Why, Anna and the Apocalypse, of course! This little-seen 2017 genre mash-up is next on our journey through December-centric movies; is it a new holiday classic, or just a weird, fun departure from the usual Christmas fare?

It's a Christmas classic that came out in 1983, lovingly depicted 1940s pre-war holiday magic, and as of 2020 still airs for 24 hours straight in late December. It's A Christmas Story, and it's as good as you remember. We discuss which member of the Parker family is the MVP, our top 5 favorite scenes, and how this movie somehow defies being remade.

I've heard of one Vanessa Hudgens, even two Vanessa Hudgenses, but THREE Vanessa Hudgenses?! That's the premise of The Princess Switch: Switched Again, the 2020 sequel to the possibly beloved Netflix movie about...princesses who switch. The original was certainly a Christmas movie; what about this one? Does it feel you with holiday cheer, or is it yet another cash-grab mess that lazily equates Christmas with love? Join us and find out.

It's the holiday season! And we're back to talk holly jolly Christmas movies. Our December to Remember guru Sam Johnson returns as well to assign us several options for this month of wintry mayhem; some are classics and some, well, are nightmares. What are the flicks we'll be enjoying during this Covid Christmas? You've got to listen to find out.
