148. The Final Year, All the Money in the World & Darkest Hour

Published: Jan. 22, 2018, 9:32 p.m.

January blues continue to afflict either us or the slate of current releases, as our thumbs remain firmly down for this week's trio of reviews. Danny was unimpressed by documentary The Final Year, a would-be puff piece about Obama's foreign policy team that struggles to sell its message in the face of the massive celebrity baby who is currently destroying everything they achieved. Sam enjoyed the seamless Spacey-to-Plummer transplant that Ridley Scott performed for All the Money in the World, but was underwhelmed by pretty much everything else. The most concentrated bile however is reserved for Darkest Hour, the Churchill jingo fest which offended Danny so deeply it turned him into a Nazi.


Plus!! We also discuss the first 45 minutes of The Rock, what films that haunted us as kids, and some of the stuff Chadwick Boseman and the Safdie brothers are working on. Finally, Winston Churchill celebrates in song his most famous catchphrase. Up your bum!!!
