    Best and Worst of the April + Movie Review: The Fall Guy + Trailer Park: Mufasa: The Lion King

    Mike and Kelsey share their best and worst movie experiences to recap the month of April.

His character must find the missing star of her movie…trying to win back her love in the process.  In the Trailer Park, Mikes breaks down the Mufasa: The Lion King which serves as both a sequel and a prequel to the 2019 ‘live-action’ movie.

The only movie review podcast you need

Movie Mike has a great perspective on movies. It’s a real opinion that he always qualifies with why he thinks the way he does. He doesn’t act like a highbrow movie reviewer. No snobbiness here. But he is extremely knowledgeable about the movie industry and the players involved the way any movie nerd would be. His spoiler free reviews gives the perfect amount of context and insight to help you decide if a movie is worth the watch… or the trip to the theater. I also enjoy his “celebrity” interviews and how he gets so much out of the little time he given with directors, writers and actors.

Also, love the monthly recap and other show with his wife. They are fun way to get better aquatinted with my podcast “friends”.
