    EPISODE 100! Celebrate with Adam & Alfie | HOPPERS Review | Movie Quiz | Ep100

    It’s finally here! 809 days after the first epsiode and the lads have finally arrived at episode 100. One long evening recording and 2 weeks in the editing suite, the lads 100th episode is here for your viewing pleasure,so please celebrate with them. We may be an audio podcast, but it’s probably best to sit down with a cuppa (or champagne) and give this one a watch, rather than just a listen. The Movie On Up boys get sentimental and talk about the podcast origins and their friendship. It wouldn’t be Movie On Up without the reviews, so Adam breaks down Pixar’s newest flick, Hoppers. Does Pixar still have that childhood tear jerker magic or is it time for the studio to call it a day? The boys have a Movie Quiz quiz, lovingly crafted by TVs own Josh Dodd. Thank you Josh Adam’s got some birthday gifts for Alfie based on two of his favourite films... take your guesses now. Voice messages to celebrate from friend of the show Josh Brooker and film podcast kings Pulp Kitchen! *we had an absoluite nightmare trying to piece this one together - our first case of corrupt footage, a camera that cuts and stop recording, frame rate different to the audio rate. If it could go wrong... it did. How very on brand for Movie On Up. It's clear were never going to be a Christopher Nolan with our skills with a camera, maybe more of an Uwe Boll. Please bare with some of the cuts and patch work, parts of the epsiode are Frankensteined together. We just wanted to get this episode out, so please enjoy!* Please remember to share the podcast with your friends and family.

    THE MUPPET SHOW (2026) Review | WASTEMAN Review | WONDERMAN Review | Ep99

    "Video Killed the Radio Star"... I mean, judging by this attempt at visual podcasting, I don't think they've got anything to worry about. You're safe for now Greg James. This week the boys talk about Disney's newest attempt at reviving the family institution that is The Muppet Show - penned by Seth Rogan and starring the usual array of fabric reprobates, the lads discuss whether the Muppets are back on form and here to stay, or are they past their prime? Adam also reviews Disney's newest MCU show Wonderman. A surprising change of pace that I think we can agree is definitely needed. Adam also got down to his Odeon to catch an early screening of Wasteman, the directorial debut by Cal McCau. Startring Tom Blyth and rising super star and podcast favourite, David Jonsson.

    THE HOUSEMAID Review | SHELTER Review | 100 NIGHTS OF HERO, PRIMATE and SAIPAN Reviews | Ep98

    Well, if two is company, three certainly is a crowd. This week the lads were accompanied by Spark Sunderland's film aficionado and host of "Lights, Camera, Action!" Sam J. Clark. Alfie and Sam review 'The Housemaid', Sydney Sweeney's sultry thriller. Trashy? Yes. Surprisingly engaging? Yes. Hollywood Schlock? Oh, absolutely. Adam's *Keane* to talk about the footy drama starring Steve Coogan, 'Saipan'. Adam and Alfie hand the reigns over to Sam for a review of 'Primate' - "the best creature feature... ever?!" The press embargo has finally lifted for '100 Nights of Hero', so Adam gets into the complex plot and Emerald Fennel-esque cinematography. As if that wasn't enough - Sam and Adam talk about Jason Statham's (queue impression by Mr Barlow) newest film, 'Shelter'. Does it offer something new, or is it the same old reliable Statham? Give Sam a follow on Instagram @sam.j_clark and hear his other reviews on @SparkSunderland Please remember to share the podcast with your friends and family.

    28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE Spoiler Review | RENTAL FAMILY REVIEW | NO OTHER CHOICE Review | Ep96

    This week the lads discuss all the important things in 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, such as Samson's massive appendage, does the skinning scene look fake and "do you think Ralph Fiennes wore a prosthetic". They go into deep SPOILERS on this one, so if you're yet to see the film, perhaps give it a watch before listening to this episode. Adam also talks about Rental Family the slightly too sentimental new film staring Academy Award winner Brendan Fraser and the hilarious dark comedy from Park Chan-Wook, No Other Choice.
