    Episode 232 - The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare

    Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance. The fires of history still burn bright, and the lads of Not A Bomb are here to stoke them with tales of valor and defiance. This week, the spotlight falls on the dashing duo of Mr. Boxer-Dropper himself, Henry Cavill, and his stalwart ally Alan Ritchson, as they bring to life The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare! Directed by the ever-reliable Guy Ritchie, this cinematic triumph thrusts us into the daring exploits of Operation Postmaster—a secret mission that turned the tide against tyranny on the Spanish island of Fernando Po during the Second World War. With action and intrigue dripping from every frame, this film rekindles the spirit of resistance that defined the Greatest Generation. Though the box office may not yet reflect its worth, the critical battle has been won, with audiences and critics alike singing its praises. Is this just another pretender in the crowded field of WWII adventures, or does it cement its place as a true monument to courage and cunning? Join the ranks, watch the film, and decide for yourself—because history isn't just remembered, it's relived! The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is directed by Guy Ritchie and stars Henry Cavill, Eiza Gonzalez, Alan Ritchson, Alex Pettyfer, Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Babs Olusanmokun, Henrique Zaga, Til Schweiger, Henry Golding, and Cary Elwes.

    Episode 229 - The Invasion

    Welcome to your favorite spooky podcast about some of scariest cinematic bombs! On this week’s thrilling episode, the gang bids a bittersweet farewell to the spookiest season of the year—yes, Spooktober is coming to a close. But hold on to your hats, folks, because this episode might have more tricks than treats! Our intrepid crew takes us deep into the realm of science fiction as they discuss the 2007 horror film The Invasion. Now, this motion picture marks the fourth cinematic adaptation of the 1955 novel “The Body Snatchers,” and stars none other than Nicole Kidman, alongside a pre-007 Daniel Craig, as they battle a world teeming with—you guessed it—body-snatching aliens! Joining the crew for this out-of-this-world discussion is Sammy from the GGTMC, and let me tell you, folks, things get wild fast. The conversation spirals into a chaotic frenzy—one so bizarre, it’s been described as, and I quote, ‘like someone farting into your can of oatmeal.’ Now, if that doesn’t paint a picture, I don’t know what will! So, dim the lights and prepare yourself for this light-hearted yet outlandish dive into The Invasion. It's all happening on the Not A Bomb Podcast—where absurdity reigns supreme, and the scares? Well, they're a little less than terrifying. Stay tuned! The Invasion is directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel and stars Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Jeremy Northam, and Jeffery Wright.

    Episode - 227: The Exorcist: Believer

    Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance! As the spooky season unfolds, Troy and Brad tackle the supernatural horror film of 2023, The Exorcist: Believer. This sixth installment in the Exorcist series, directed by David Gordon Green, treats horror fans as if they’ve never experienced a well-crafted scare before. It’s baffling how a film can simultaneously recycle horror clichés while attempting to address themes of faith with all the finesse of a sledgehammer. Let’s face it: this movie is a mess, and the guys don’t hold back in their critique, exposing the film’s glaring flaws and their hatred of David Gordon Green. Save yourself the frustration; instead of subjecting yourself to this cinematic disappointment, seek out a genuinely good horror film that respects the genre, your intelligence, and your time. The Exorcist: Believer is directed by David Gordon Green and stars Leslie Odom Jr., Lidya Jewett, Olivia O’Neill, Jennifer Nettles, Norbert Leo Butz, Ann Dowd, and Ellen Burstyn Not A Bomb has has plenty of spooky designs in our Merch store!

    Episode 226 - The Mummy (2017)

    Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance! Spooky season has arrived, and what’s more haunting than films that flopped at the box office? We’re kicking off Spooktober with Troy’s favorite actor, Tom Cruise, and his 2017 fantasy action-adventure The Mummy. Joined by frequent guest Sammy of the GGTMC, the crew gets “wrapped up” in a lively discussion. Troy quizzes the gang on their favorite Cruise movies (no shame here!), and they dive deep into some lesser-known gems from the actor’s career. Eventually, they unravel the mystery of The Mummy itself—packed with all the classic Tom Cruise charm. With a mere 15% on Rotten Tomatoes and the title of Cruise’s lowest-rated film, could The Mummy actually be “Not A Bomb”? Tune in and find out! The Mummy (2017) is directed Alex Kurtzman and stars Tom Cruise, Annabelle Wallis, Sofia Boutella, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance, Marwan Kenzari and Russell Crowe Not A Bomb has just unveiled new designs in our Merch store! We're thrilled to share these with you.

    Episode 225 - Wolfen

    Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance! Sadly, Listener Request Month has reached its final full moon, but don’t worry—Troy and Brad are still howling with excitement for the last suggestion. Dedicated pack member Philip sank his fangs into Wolfen, a horror crime thriller often mistaken for a werewolf flick. But surprise—Wolfen is more of a police procedural than a howling night of lycanthropic mayhem. The guys sniff out why Wolfen didn’t quite sink its claws into audiences, bask in the coolness of Gregory Hines, and even sink their teeth into 10 horror films they’re gearing up to devour in October. Wolfen is directed by Michael Wadleigh and stars Albertt Finney, Diane Venora, Edward James Olmos, Gregory Hines and Tom Noonan. Not A Bomb has just unveiled new designs in our Merch store!
