On the podcast this week, Steven and Sean are violently getting our treasured car back while talking about the post-apocalyptic David Mich\xf4d film, The Rover.

An announcement: Ahem. After seeing this movie, we\u2019ll no longer be taking any criticisms of Robert Pattinson as a person or an actor. Well, assuming he doesn\u2019t do anything crazy like star in another Twilight movie. That\u2019s the only time we\u2019ll accept that now. Otherwise, he\u2019s one of the best.

Onward to the film! This gritty, sparse, powerful film. The Rover may be slow moving, but it\u2019s not light on the action or the drama. It\u2019s a moving story about a man and his search for... a car. Doesn\u2019t get much more intense than that, friends.

Don\u2019t worry, though, because we\u2019re going to break down all the actual goodness in this film. From insane car crashes to intense gunfights to the tensest of interpersonal drama, this one has a whole lot going for it. This all includes a phenomenal pair of performances by Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson. Plus, this is one of those films you can impress really your movie-loving friends with.

We loved the stark and grainy look of The Rover, which coupled very well with a heavy and perfect soundscape. It ticks all of our boxes.
