Spoiler-Free Sinners Review

8 hours ago

If you’re on the fence about spending money to see Ryan Coogler’s 5th Feature Film in theaters…let us help you make that decision with our SPOILER FREE Sinners review! SINNERS follows the members of a small knit community in the 1930s who [(whom? Who(m) cares?)] encounter some VERY unexpected and uninvited guests - vampires. That’s right. It’s a vampire movie. BUT it’s not your Dad’s vampire movie. This is a director who is reinventing genres, and it’s something you won’t want to miss!

Join us as we celebrate (and criticize) the Acting, Production, and Directing in a spoiler-free and snob-free way.

Spoiler-Free Warfare Review

Friday Apr 11, 2025

With some movie genres, you feel like you know exactly what you’re going to get before you even see the movie. For many years, the war movie genre has fit that mold. For better or worse, when you walk into a war movie you expect a triumphant score, violence and gore, (sometimes forced) dialogue to build the appearance of camaraderie, sappy backstories to raise the stakes, etc.

But occasionally, a genre film comes along that attempts to break the mold and shift the paradigm on to expect from its genre. Warfare attempts exactly that. Written based solely on the memories of the real-life navy seal veterans who were there and unfolding on screen in real time, Warfare challenges the norm of the war film genre in hopes of creating a new standard for based on a true story war movies. Are they successful in doing so? In this spoiler-free Warfare review, Stefano and Cam discuss exactly that, breaking down the performances, filmmaking and technical achievements, story, and more!

Don’t forget to share your thoughts on Warfare or our review in the comments and check the links in the description for more movie news and review content as well as a link to join our free Discord server where you can chat movies with us.

Spoiler-Free Novocaine Review

Friday Mar 14, 2025

The most upsetting realization that came out of this movie review is that Cam had never heard of Green Day’s hit song “Give Me Novocain”. It’s an iconic anthem of punk rock, and it deserves recognition! But did the punk song of the early 2000s make it into the movie soundtrack?

We can’t tell you…because this review is SPOILER FREE.

Join the conversation as Kirk interviews Cam on the best, the worst, and the mid parts of Paramount’s latest feature film, NOVOCAINE.

Spoiler-Free I'm Still Here Review

Wednesday Feb 12, 2025

“Based on a True Story” Movies are always surprising - the sometimes horrendous acts of violence or cruelty seem like they could’ve only happened in the Stone Age. For the true events that played out in Best Picture Nominee, I’M STILL HERE, the events only date back to 1971.

Join Cam and Kirk as they discuss - SPOILER FREE - a must-see film highlighting a family’s strength through devastating circumstances.

Oscar Nominations 2025 - Reactions, Snubs, and Surprises

Friday Jan 24, 2025

Some may call it Christmas. Others may call it the “Super Bowl of Cinema.” We just like to call it what it is…Oscars Nomination Day.

It’s a morning filled with dreaded anticipation, waiting to hear your favorite movies get selected for Cinema’s Highest honor by complete (and famous) strangers. Naturally, each year is filled with joyful celebrations as the voting members “got it right”, immediately followed by: “I’ve never even HEARD of that movie!”, or “NOOO! NOT [Insert Actor’s Name]”, or “THAT MOVIE IS TERRIBLE - HOW DID IT GET SO MANY NOMINATIONS!!!”.

Discussing the Good, the Bad, and the Emilia Perez, Cam & Kirk will champion their favorite nominees, and criticize the others because…they’re critics.

Thursday Jan 23, 2025

The Wolf Man first graced our cultural zeitgeist in 1941, with a roll-of-the-dice, hokey horror film of the same name. 84 years later, the world is still enamored by werewolves, all thanks to a single film. In this 2025 remake, SAW creator and director Leigh Whannel brings his love of the horror genre to resurrect this franchise to a new audience.

In our latest SPOILER FREE episode, we’ll dissect the best and worst parts of WOLF MAN, which will either have you howling all the way to the theater, or clicking NEXT EPISODE on your 4th rewatch of The OFFICE.

Spoiler-Free The Brutalist Review

Thursday Jan 23, 2025

Epic films. Lawrence of Arabia, Ben Hur, Braveheart, the list goes on. Cinema history is filled with long, sweeping epic films that have mastered the art of storytelling on the largest scale. In 2024, Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist released, vying for a spot in the pantheon of celebrated film epics, a spot that has not been filled in some time as these types of films seemingly become rarer each year.

The question is, did Brady Corbet accomplish his goal of creating a modern epic about a Hungarian refugee who lands in America in the aftermath of WWII. Starring Adrien Brody, Guy Pearce, Felicity Jones, and other fantastic actors, it would seem the cast is more than up to the task. In this spoiler-free The Brutalist Review, Cam, Kirk, and their guest, Popcorn for Breakfast Contributor, Stefano, discuss all aspects of the 3.5-hour long film and determine where it stands among 2024 releases as well as the great epics of all time.

Don’t forget to share your comments on this film with us on our Discord server (linked below)!
