Happy 300th Flixwatcher! In this second special birthday episode Sam Pay and Martin Zaltz Austwick from Song by Song join Flixwatcher to review Kobi’s choice Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is a 1991 action adventure film directed by Kevin ‘Waterworld’ Reynolds and starring the other Kevin, Kevin Costner as the eponymous Robin. In this retelling of the English folklore Robin of Locksley escapes a prison in Jerusalem with the help of a Moor named Azeem (Morgan Freeman). While Robin has been away the Sheriff of Nottingham (Alan Rickman acting with maximum ham) plots to seize the throne and make the lives of Nottingham miserable. Robin assembles a gang of outlaws to oppose the Sheriff and impress Marion (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio). Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves was a huge hit in 1991, the second-highest-grossing film of the year (Terminator 2: Judgement Day was number one) and Bryan Adams’ ‘Everything I Do, I Do It For You spent 16 weeks in the UK number top spot and still holds the record for longest number one single. Scores for recommendability were pretty solid, despite its flaws it is generally quite entertaining, mainly because of Rickman’s OTT performance, with slightly lower scores for engagement the overall rating is 3.22.

Happy 300th Flixwatcher! In this special birthday episode Sam Pay and Martin Zaltz Austwick from Song by Song join Flixwatcher to review Helen’s choice The Irishman. The Irishman is a 2019 Martin Scorsese film, based on the non-fiction book I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brandt, it tells the story of Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran a truck driver who becomes a hitman for the mob. Robert De Niro stars as Frank Sheeran, Joe Pesci stars as Russell Bufalino, the crime boss of the Bufalino mafia and counsel to Jimmy Hoffa, played by Al Pacino. Ray Romano, Bobby Cannavale, Anna Paquin, Stephen Graham and Harvey Keitel also star in supporting roles. The Irishman is notable for its 209 minute runtime - three hours and 29 minutes of mob violence and International Brotherhood of Teamsters - labour unions in the US. Recommendability for The Irishman was mixed, despite general consensus that is it a very interesting film, the three hour plus runtime goes against it. Unsurprisingly the repeat viewing scores very quite low and overall The Irishman scores 3.36. Enjoyed Sam and Martin as hosts?

Daisy and Clare from W - Rated podcast return to Flixwatcher remotely to review Daisy’s choice Memento. Memento is the 2000 mind bending neo-noir thriller breakthrough film from visionary director Christopher Nolan. It stars Guy Pearce as Leonard Shelby, a man who is unable to store recent memories, he covers himself in tattoos to “remember” facts. He is trying to track down the man who raped and killed his wife with the help of undercover cop Teddy Gammell (Joe Pantoliano). He also becomes involved with Natalie (Carrie-Anne Moss) who may or may not be helping him to track down the killer. Memento combines a non-linear narrative structure with an unreliable narrator to create a mind bending 113 minutes of film. As the film unravels backwards the viewer is left wondering who are the good guys and who are the bad guys and what is fact and what is fiction. Everyone apart from Clare, who is a self proclaimed non-Nolan fan, loved Memento on release and it is still as mind blowing as it was when it confused the hell out of us in 2000. Due to its structure it a perfect film for repeat viewing, Memento also scores very highly for engagement to give an overall rating of 3.76.   [supsystic-tables id=311] Episode #299 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #299 Crew of Clare (@clareellenhope) and Daisy (@DaisyVicEdwards) from W-Rated Find their Websites online at https://twitter.com/theOAFFC And at https://muckrack.com/clare-brunton-1/portfolio And at https://twitter.com/JumpCut_Studios And at https://letterboxd.com/daisyedwards/ And at https://linktr.ee/WRated Please make sure you give them some love More about Memento For more info on Memento, you can visit Memento IMDb page here or Memento Rotten Tomatoes page here.

Bethany and Mel from Movement is Life, a podcast series from Intelligent Health, return to Flixwatcher to review Bethany’s choice Bird Box. Bird Box is a 2018 post-apocalyptic thriller, based on the 2014 novel of the same name by Josh Malerman and directed by Susanne (The Night Manager) Bier. Sandra Bullock stars as Malorie, who we meet at the start of the film blindfolding two young children as they get into a boat and telling them they will die if they remove the blindfolds. Cut to five years earlier and an unknown presence is causing people who have been exposed to it to commit suicide in horrific ways. A very pregnant Malorie takes refuge in a house with a group of disparate characters including a compassionate passer by Tom (Trevante Rhodes), a grumpy and bitter Douglas (John Malkovich), a unassuming elder woman Cheryl (Jacki Weaver) and another pregnant woman Olympia (Danielle Macdonald). The group try to stay alive but tensions run high as supplies dwindle and unpredictable strangers are let into the house. Somewhat unfairly called inferior to A Quiet Place - they both came out in 2018 but Bird Box’s novel came out in 2014 - they do have similarities in the set up both are different in tone and post-apocalyptic terror. Bird Box is pretty bleak, making it hard to rate highly on recommendability or repeat viewing, however it still manages to score 3.83 overall.   [supsystic-tables id=310 Episode #298 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #298 Crew of Bethany @_bradio and Mel from @Intelligent_Hlt Find their Websites online at https://twitter.com/Intelligent_Hlt and at https://twitter.com/GoldsmithsUoL and at https://twitter.com/Disabilitea_Pod and at https://twitter.com/unlock_theatre and at https://linktr.ee/BethanyBroomfieldJones and at https://twitter.com/drwilliambird and at https://www.intelligenthealth.co.uk/ Please make sure you give them some love   More about Bird Box For more info on Bird Box, you can visit Bird Box IMDb page here or Bird Box Rotten Tomatoes page here.

Liam Dempsey and Paul Willson from Spocklight: A Star Trek Podcast join Flixwatcher to review Liam’s choice Boiling Point. Boiling Point is a 2021 British drama, directed by Philip Barantini it stars Stephen Graham as Andy, a head chef at an high profile restaurant in London. When we meet Andy he is not having a great day, his restaurant has been downgraded from five to three stars for hygiene, it has been overbooked for the evening and he is having problems in his personal life. Thrown into the mix is also a customer with a nut allergy, a racist diner and tensions in the kitchen all which create a pressure cooker environment. Shot in one take Boiling Point is a thrilling drama, Graham is excellent as the unfortunate Andy. Watching his situation deteriorate on what could end up being the worst night of his life is both stressful and compelling. Recommendability and engagement scores for Boiling Point were very high to give a very impressive overall rating of 4.01.   [supsystic-tables id=296 Episode #297 Crew Links Thanks to Episode #296 Crew of David Llong and Neil Gregory from We Needed Roads podcast Find their Websites online at https://twitter.com/BBCSussex and at https://twitter.com/spocklightpod and at https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/spocklight-a-star-trek-podcast/id1150816497?mt=2 Please make sure you give them some love   More about Boiling Point For more info on Boiling Point, you can visit Boiling Point IMDb page here or Boiling Point Rotten Tomatoes page here.
