    The Uprising VS Animals

    A weekly film discussion where Tosin Ajayi, Shaun Harris, Sharon Bollen, and Holly Nessling compare what they have seen in cinemas versus at home. This episode covers two main reviews, a long-running rant about Cineworld Isle of Wight screening issues, and a quick round-up of listener feedback.The main conversation is a panel discussion with four distinct voices, though Sharon and Holly each only contribute substantively to one review and the cinema complaints. The core topics are historical drama, streaming thriller, and local cinema scheduling frustrations. Key topics In this episode: Shaun reviews The Uprising, a Paul Greengrass historical drama about the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381, led by Andrew Garfield as a fictionalized ploughman figure.Shaun praises the period detail, the authentic costumes, and Cosmo Jarvis as Wat Tyler, but thinks the film’s ending compresses history too much.The biggest knock against The Uprising for Shaun is the shaky-cam style and one “silly” moment he says drags the score down.Holly shares Animals, a Netflix thriller directed by and starring Ben Affleck alongside Kerry Washington.Holly describes Animals as a tightly constructed, twisty domestic thriller with strong pacing, solid performances, and a very 1990s thriller feel.The panel notes that Animals is the kind of home-streaming film that works well on Netflix but does not really need a cinema release.The group spends a long stretch on Cineworld Isle of Wight, where Shaun and Sharon both had screenings cancelled or badly timed.Shaun says Cineworld cancelled his booking for The Social Reckoning, while Sharon says The Uprising showed at awkward times that clashed with work and caring responsibilities.They complain that smaller sites get fewer new releases, fewer showings, and that advertised films often disappear after trailers have already been shown.Listener feedback includes praise for the Hacks joke-workshopping scenes and a kind message from a US listener discovering the show through a Small Profits review.“Cinema or sofa? Big scream or big stream.”“It is so damn good.”“Cineworld sucks.” Timestamps 00:00 - Cinema or sofa?

Holly weighs in on The Blame and Neely, and Tosin pulls the threads together by comparing the TV versions, movie versions, and the marketing spin around each title.Tosin hosts the show, joined by Shaun Harris, Sharon Bollen, and Holly Nessling. Shaun brings the film-first, instinctive verdicts and the surprise winner of the week. Sharon adds sharp, thoughtful reactions to both cinema and streaming, especially on character work and structure.

    336. The Dog Stars VS The Terror : Devil in Silver; Spa Weekend VS Hammer Legends :Heroes and Monsters

    This episode covers a mixed week of cinema and streaming, with the hosts weighing a post apocalyptic film, a psychological horror series, a female led comedy, and a documentary about Hammer Films. The conversation is playful, but the reviews are clear, with the strongest praise going to the streaming pick and the Hammer documentary.Key topics In this episode, Tosin hosts from Bromsgrove with Shaun Harris, Sharon Bollen, and London correspondent Holly Nessling joining in.The group opens with what they have been watching in cinemas and at home, including The Dog Stars, The Terror, Spa Weekend, and Hammer Legends, Heroes and Monsters.Sharon explains The Dog Stars as a post pandemic survival story set in the Colorado mountains, following Higg, played by Jacob Elordi, his life on an aerodrome, and encounters with isolated communities and hostile raiders.Shaun and Sharon both feel The Dog Stars is well made but familiar, leaning on post apocalyptic tropes from The Walking Dead, 28 Days Later, and similar stories.Holly’s home viewing focus is The Terror, starting with season 3, Devil in Silver, then working backward through seasons 2 and 1.Devil in Silver is described as a psychological horror story about being wrongly trapped in a psychiatric institution, with Dan Stevens praised for being compelling and convincing as an American lead.Season 2 of The Terror is set during Japanese internment in the United States in World War II, where the supernatural horror is overshadowed by the real world brutality of the camps.Shaun reviews Spa Weekend as an exactly as advertised ensemble comedy built around four women on a spa trip, with each playing a familiar archetype and the film clearly aiming at a middle aged female audience.Shaun’s streaming pick, Hammer Legends, Heroes and Monsters, is praised as a nostalgic documentary tracing Hammer Films from Quatermass through Dracula, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, and the studio’s shift through changing British cinema trends.The episode closes with a broader discussion about film distribution, sparked by a correction on Coyote vs. Acme and the role of Ketchup Entertainment in buying and releasing it.The Dog Stars - 3.25 averageThe Terror season 3, Devil in Silver - 4Spa Weekend - 3Hammer Legends, Heroes and Monsters - 4Timestamps(00:00) Opening the week and introducing the panel(01:49) Cinema round up begins with The Dog Stars(06:25) Holly’s home watch list and The Terror season 3(07:23) Shaun’s week of Hammer Legends and assorted trashy films(09:37) Sharon explains the post apocalyptic world of The Dog Stars(13:16) Why The Dog Stars feels familiar despite strong craft(17:46) Sharon’s final take on The Dog Stars(20:56) Holly breaks down The Terror season 3, Devil in Silver(25:31) Season 2 of The Terror and the horror of Japanese internment(30:09) Spa Weekend and the “female Hangover” template(35:39) Ad libbing, editing, and the film’s target audience(40:11) Hammer Legends, Heroes and Monsters and Hammer’s history(43:23) Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, and Hammer’s serious approach(47:15) Final verdict on Hammer Legends and the Hammer House of Horror reference(48:31) Which won the week, cinema or streaming?(48:37) Update on Coyote vs. Acme and its release situation(51:17) Wrap up and sign offNotable quotesCopy“It’s a film set in contemporary Britain, but a temporary America, but after a devastating global pandemic.”Copy“The stuff of nightmares anyway, that scenario without any supernatural or any sort of other elements to it.”Copy“The film is there to give them a break in the cinema where they can go away and go, Yeah, yeah, that’s my life.”VerdictsWinner of the weekStreaming wins this week, driven by the strength of The Terror season 3 and Hammer Legends, Heroes and Monsters.

    335. Coyote VS ACME vs The Last House; Mutiny VS Over Your Dead Body; One Night Only VS Alley Cats

    A banned Looney Tunes movie turns out to be the best thing in the cinema this week, a Jason Statham action machine does exactly what it says on the tin, and Ricky Gervais surprises everyone with an animated cat show that actually lands. If you want to know where your money is best spent this week, this episode makes the case fast.Shaun, Tosin, Holly Nessling, and Sharon Bollen compare the week’s cinema and streaming picks, but the real story is the range: from the long-delayed, tax-write-off-dodging delight of Coyote vs Acme to the enclosed-home paranoia of The Last House, the ridiculous-but-entertaining mayhem of Mutiny, the darkly comic relationship carnage of Over Your Dead Body, and the oddball romance premise of One Night Only.You’ll discover:why Coyote vs Acme feels like the best animation-live action hybrid since Who Framed Roger Rabbithow Mutiny doubles down on every Jason Statham trope and still workswhy The Last House turns a family home into a survival bunkerwhat makes Over Your Dead Body spiral from a killer premise into glorious chaoshow One Night Only turns a wildly absurd alternate America into a rom-com with consequenceswhy Alley Cats may be Ricky Gervais’ most watchable project yetShaun and Sharon bring the cinema perspective, Holly brings the streaming chaos and an increasingly legendary shark-movie obsession, and Tosin keeps trying to balance the whole thing while making the weekly “money well spent” verdict. Along the way there are proper laughs, a few disagreements, and at least one pitch for an entire podcast devoted to terrible shark films.This is the episode for anyone deciding what to watch next, anyone who misses big-screen fun, and anyone who enjoys a film chat that can go from serious to utterly unhinged in seconds. If you’ve got one cinema trip or one streaming slot to spend this week, start here.Timestamps00:00 - Countdown chaos and name-spelling complaints02:03 - What everyone saw in cinemas this week06:29 - Home viewing roundup and the “bag” for unfinished series08:11 - Why Coyote vs. Acme was almost hidden away12:40 - Wiley Coyote sues Acme for decades of injuries15:37 - The voice casting and Looney Tunes callbacks18:10 - The Last House: trapped indoors by the rain21:27 - Comparing The Last House to The End of Oak Street23:41 - Survival mode, family dynamics, and rating The Last House25:29 - Mutiny: Jason Statham does what Jason Statham does29:20 - Why the Statham formula still works31:38 - Over Your Dead Body begins with murder plans34:50 - The film keeps escalating into total chaos37:49 - Samara Weaving, Juliette Lewis, and the cast’s energy39:21 - One Night Only and the alternate-world sex law44:18 - What the film is really saying about dating and intimacy49:30 - Alley Cats: Ricky Gervais’s animated cat hangout show55:33 - Why Alley Cats works better than expected58:48 - Weekly scores and the tightest result of the episode60:36 - Holly explains Noah’s Shark in full glory64:31 - Listener challenge: send in worse shark movies67:28 - Plans for future spoiler rants, shark podcasts, and sign-off VerdictStreaming edges it this week, but the real money pick is Coyote vs. Acme.
