You Can't Handle The Truth

FAST AND FURIOUS IS BACK, THIS TIME WITH ROMAN NUMERALS. What can I say about the tenth instalment though, it's more of exactly what we're used to by now, it's daft, dumb, defies the laws of God and Gravity throughout and ends on a monumental blockbuster that only Vin Diesel thinks must've been a great idea. Yet there's something so incredible about this film and it is the very definition of cinematic entertainment. I had a BLAST with it, and it may even be the most fun I've had at the cinema in years. So check out Fast X and you'll actually have an incredible time. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

Disney's live action reimagining of the 1989 beloved classic is in cinemas now, with Halle Bailey taking on the role of Ariel. It's...fine. Perfectly watchable and harmless, but not as enticing or imaginative as the animated version, opting for more photorealistic animals as opposed to exaggerative and exciting portrayals of Flounder and Sebastian to name a couple. Halle shines, the directing is decent, it's just lacking a spark and ends up looking like a cgi blur under water for the most part. It'll be successful though so check it out if you're a fan of Disney's cash grabbing ways with their remakes. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

DC's latest film hits theaters in a few weeks and the amount of praise it has been receiving over recent months is something of a mystery to me. Is it REALLY going to be that good?? Well after seeing the trailer at the cinema...they might be right. Anyway I'm excited and this episode should hopefully get you excited too, so enjoy and let me know how you're feeling about what is being described as one of the best comic book movies EVER. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

Rian Johnson's bold new TV series is finally available in the UK (on Sky) and it's a must see for fans of classic detective shows. Think of it like an updated Columbo, a new cast every week bar the lead, in this case Natasha Lyonne, who must solve a series of crimes as she travels across the western States of America on the run. There's plenty of twists, turns, laughs, excitement and emotion to be found with this show and while it may take a few episodes to adjust to the narrative formula, you're rewarded extremely well throughout the first season. Available on Peacock oversees and Sky in the UK, enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The finale in Marvel's trilogy of Guardians films, sees James Gunn return to the directors chair in what may possibly be the thematically darkest film the studio has signed off on. For me, I didn't dig it. It's graphic in its depiction of animal cruelty and testing, making it a brutally harrowing watch and I honestly wouldn't recommend any younger child watching this, even if they're a fan of the previous two entries. Some of the film works, a lot of it doesn't but as a final farewell it packs a lot of emotion and heart into the two and a half hour runtime. In cinemas now. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

Released in 2017, Vol. 2 continues the adventures of Star Lord, Rocket, Groot, Drax and Gamora six months after the events of the first film. Becoming a fully fledged team by the end of the first, thats an element that is picked up straight away in this instalment..for all of 30 minutes before the team splits up and there's tension all around. It makes sense given the narrative and to evolve the chemistry through drama and inevitably the team up moments are once again brilliant. Its a fun film, a solid sequel and captures a heavy amount of heart and humour so check it out before Vol. 3! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The first movie in James Gunn's trilogy, released in 2014 sees a band of rogues forced to work together and save the galaxy. Comedy, action, drama, romance, this film has it all. A wildly different film from Marvel at the time of release but what was likely their biggest risk, turned into one of their biggest successes. Great cast, great dynamic, very fun movie even if you're no Marvel fan! Streaming on Disney+ now if you're living under a rock and haven't seen it yet! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

Yes I'm talking about John Wick again but this shall be the last time for a while I promise.. very simply, I saw it in IMAX and it was so good I would absolutely recommend seeing it like that if you can. I'm about a month late for recommending it since its left most cinemas now but its a great time nonetheless and you can't go wrong in imax! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

This medieval fantasy flick based on the tabletop game is striking a chord with fans all around the world and also newcomers too. However...I didn't like it! And I really struggle to see what all the hype is for it. Chris Pine is the standout but everyone else is just kinda passable at best, but with a couple of decent scenes, shot and edited well, it's not enough for me to recommend you check it out. However it's available to rent at home now should you wish, and may still be in select cinemas. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

This new London set rom-com is an absolute delight from start to finish, harkening back to the glory days of Richard Curtis flicks but with a splash of the 21st century to represent today in a much better light. Very important and exciting to see such a predominantly black cast and crew shine in one of the best rom-coms of the 2020s and possible century so far.

Ben Affleck returns to direct his first feature film in 7 years with the true story behind Nike's attempts to sign Michael Jordan in a never before seen shoe deal that changed the game completely. Matt Damon leads an all star cast where everyone is given their own chance to shine, the script is witty and sharp, the story is feel good and enlightening, every aspect of this movie works far better than it perhaps should when the reality is, it's a 2 hour movie about a shoe deal with most of the time spent watching characters on the phone. The ultimate dad movie of the year, I'd highly recommend Air.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a contender for worst movie of the year. Apple TV+'s latest flick is a disaster in every sense. An action rom com with some of the worst action set pieces and not an ounce of chemistry between the two leads, Ghosted is one movie you should ghost yourself. Chris Evans and Ana De Armas star, but just watch Knives Out instead cause they're utilised way better and it's a lot more fun. This is embarrassingly bad but I enjoyed reviewing it so I hope you enjoy too. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The spiritual sequel to Searching (2018) finally hits UK cinemas, only 4 months after its debut in the US. I even saw this film back in February (coincidentally when I recorded this review too) so its about damn time you're able to watch it. From what I can remember, it's a terrifically tense thriller that'll leave you jaw dropped for a good majority of the second half of the film. Upholstered by a career best performance from Storm Reid and an inventive style of filmmaking, Missing is one of the best films of the year so far. Check it out streaming worldwide and in UK cinemas soon. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

This movie is dreadful do not watch it. Although it is on Prime if you're interested in a cyberpunk leathered up parody of the famous Mario Bros but this ain't like the games I played as a kid.

Lets-a-go with Illumination's attempt at starting a Mario movie franchise, with an all star cast and game accurate character designs, what more could you ask for! Well a decent script for starters, maybe a cohesive structure and genuine depth to characters but that's just me and what I like to experience from a movie. Sure I'm not looking for anything triumphant from a film based on a character that only really runs around kingdoms in search of a princess captured by a fire breathing turtle, but I think we deserve something a little better than this. It's filled with nostalgia and easter eggs for fans, and of course it is fun, but it's dispensable and forgettable and I'd find it much easier to recommend playing the games instead.

My spoiler filled thoughts on Chapter 4 of Keanu Reeves' bullet fuelled franchise. It's unreal in every way, exciting and unique (especially impressive given its the fourth entry) but above all else it's classic John Wick. Fans will love it, newbies will be encouraged to check out the first 3, and there's a lot of bombshells to discuss in this review! In cinemas now. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The very beginning of an incredible franchise, that was nearly a straight to video flick. Keanu Reeves IS John Wick. And you don't want to mess with him. Yes it may be your typical revenge film but who wouldn't murder 80 people if your puppy had been killed unnecessarily. Slick, exciting, helluva good time this is, so watch them all now Chapter 4 is in cinemas currently. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

After the first movie was a sleeper hit which amassed popularity in the couple of years after its release, chapter 2 picks up the ball and runs with it, delivering more of everything audiences loved about the first. Keanu kicks more ass, the antagonists are fleshed out more and this movie has some of the slickest, albeit most aggressive reloading of guns you'll ever see in an action flick. John Wick Chapter 2 is a rare case of a sequel being maybeeee sliiiightly betterrrrish than the first. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The third instalment sees Keanu Reeves on the run from...basically the entire world out to kill him. It's going 100mph from the opening scene and doesn't let up at all. Great stunts and action set pieces, interesting new additions to the cast and above all, utter badassery in John's methods of taking lives. Maybe I shouldn't enjoy it as much as I do but Chapter 3 is everything you expect and love from a John Wick film so check it out now! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support

The Baba Yaga is back after a 4 year wait since chapter 3 ended on a pretty interesting cliffhanger. Our hero (?) if you can call him that, serial killer might be more apt, is seeking retribution and clearing his name for the contract that has been set on him for a while now. But of course there are those looking for him and cashing in, not letting anyone stand in their way. What it results in is one of the best action movies of all time, with quite possibly the greatest final hour of all time. No exaggeration when I say you'll need to pick your jaw up off the floor several times during it, it's THAT good. In cinemas now so watch John Wick Chapter 4 and enjoy! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kieran-harvey3/support
