    The Brutalist (2024): "Concrete Dreams and Complicated Accents"

    In this episode of Can I Change My Score, Sophie and Matt tackle The Brutalist, a three-and-a-half-hour epic packed with architectural ambition, immigrant struggles, and questionable Hungarian accents. They unpack Adrian Brody’s tormented portrayal of a post-war architect, the film’s sweeping cinematography shot in VistaVision, and the unexpectedly welcome built-in intermission. But does the movie’s historical weight hold up when they realise it’s not based on real events? Sophie is enthralled, Matt remains skeptical, and they both question if The Brutalist is a masterpiece – or just a really long film with beautifully grey lighting. Hosted on Acast.

    Smoking Causes Coughing (2023): "Superheroes, Surrealism, and Slabs of Titanium"

    In this episode of Can I Change My Score, Sophie and Matt unravel the gloriously unhinged Smoking Causes Coughing, a French satire blending Power Rangers absurdity with horror anthology chaos. From the grotesquely charismatic Chief Didier (a womanising rat puppet oozing green slime) to bizarrely staged campfire horror stories, this film revels in its own surreal nonsense. They debate its deeper meaning—if one exists—while marvelling at its deadpan humour, gory superhero antics, and titanium prison-bed luxury. Matt is all in, Sophie remains unconvinced, but both agree: this is weird cinema at its most ridiculous and unexpectedly brilliant. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Emilia Pérez (2024): "Singing, Subversion, and Selena Gomez"

    In this week's Can I Change My Score, Sophie and Matt tackle the Oscar-dominating sensation Emilia Perez. Described as a “Disney movie on crack,” this genre-bending musical dives into a kaleidoscope of Broadway-esque numbers, emotional upheaval, and dark undertones. They explore Karla Sofia Gascón's powerful portrayal of the titular character and Zoe Saldana’s swan-like grace, while questioning the film’s peculiar tone and setting. From gyrating bed scenes to heartfelt family struggles, the duo debate the film’s unconventional approach, its Netflix marketing woes, and its long-term impact. Scores shift as they ponder: is it too weird or just weird enough? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Under the Silver Lake (2018): "Conspiracies, Clues, and Complete Chaos"

    In today's episode of Can I Change My Score, Sophie and Matt unpack Under the Silver Lake's conspiracy-soaked charm, from surreal owl women to hidden Hollywood secrets. They swoon over how Andrew Garfield’s Sam takes bum-life to new heights in this bizarre scavenger hunt through LA, chasing cryptic codes, mysterious women, and an unearned sense of purpose. Equal parts absurd and mesmerising, this neon-noir is as much about what it doesn’t explain as what it does. They debate Sam’s questionable choices, swoon over the film’s visuals, and agree that beating up kids over a scratched Mustang might just be the highlight. In short, it’s weird, wonderful, and weirdly wonderful. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Elvis (2022): "Blue Suede Shoes, Velvet Voices, and the King’s Golden Cage"

    In this episode of Can I change my score?, Sophie and Matt revisit Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis and wrestle with big feelings about the King of Rock ’n’ Roll. Sophie reflects on the emotional weight of Elvis’s story, while Matt ponders if Tom Hanks should only do villainous roles. They marvel at Austin Butler’s total transformation into Elvis and debate how much the Colonel was to blame for Elvis’s downfall. Between musical highs and heartbreaking lows, they explore fame, control, and what it truly means to be trapped in a “golden cage.” One thing’s for sure – Elvis has definitely stayed in the building.

    Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. (2023): “God, Bras, and the Art of Growing Up”

    In this episode of Can I Change My Score?, Sophie and Matt reminisce about the joys and horrors of adolescence through the lens of Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret. They celebrate the stellar acting of Abby Ryder Forston as Margaret, who navigates new friendships, puberty, and existential chats with God—all while rocking some hilariously retro ‘70s vibes. Matt marvels at how the film nails universal awkwardness, while Sophie recalls her own bra-buying debacles (to Matt’s mortification). Between laughs and nostalgia, they uncover the film’s relatable charm and its message: growing up is awkward, messy, and wonderfully human. Hosted on Acast.

    Mufasa: The Lion King (2024): "Lions, Lamentations, and Lin-Manuel"

    In this week’s Can I Change My Score?, Sophie and Matt tackle Disney’s Mufasa: The Lion King, a prequel that takes the Lion King lore where no one asked it to go. From CGI lions singing with unsettling realism to Scar’s hilariously awkward attempts at romance, the film left them questioning whether this origin story added anything meaningful to the pride. With questionable rhymes and a lacklustre soundtrack from Lin-Manuel Miranda, they reflect on the movie's odd choices and ponder: does every Disney classic need an unnecessary spin-off?

    Conclave (2024): “Cardinals, Crisps, and Cinema Shenanigans”

    In Episode 10 of Can I Change My Score, Sophie and Matt tackle Conclave, a movie about cardinals, secrets, and the high drama of papal elections. Matt admits to confusing the title with words like “concave,” while Sophie reveals she was mainly in it for the nachos. The duo dives into the film’s tense violin soundtrack, Ralph Fiennes’ trademark gravitas, and their bafflement over Stanley Tucci’s thick American accent as “Cardinal Bellini.” A rogue cinema-goer armed with the world’s loudest crisp packet nearly steals the spotlight, but ultimately, it’s all about stunning visuals and quirky, unexpected twists.
