Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! For our second seasonal episode of 2023, we're covering not one, but TWO favourites of the festive season that I'm sure you all love as much as we do - 1990's Home Alone and the 1992 follow-up, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. As we go through comparing both these movies in our typical loose fashion, we also talk about where else the noir movie within the movie crops up, encountering an unintentional jump scare, and ultimately getting down to what makes the sequel stand out as Paul's preference... ------------------------------------------------------- Don't forget to follow us on social media in the links below, and let us know your thoughts and recommendations for the future! instagram.com/sp_filmviewers twitter.com/SP_Filmviewers letterboxd.com/SP_Filmviewers Rating and reviewing the show is a great help too!

Love Hard Movie Review

Let the festivities begin! For the first Christmas themed review of 2023, we're both taking a look at something new(ish) and hip (maybe?) with a Netflix original movie named Love Hard (combo of Love Actually and Die Hard) starring Nina Dobrev. Does this film deliver something different from the regular holiday season flicks, or fall into the same trappings as you'd expect?? As part of the discussion, we also go over our own experiences with online dating, the impact of celebrity deaths, and try to pinpoint what constitutes as a Christmas movie based off previous episodes... ------------------------------------------------------- Don't forget to follow us on social media in the links below, and let us know your thoughts and recommendations for the future! instagram.com/sp_filmviewers twitter.com/SP_Filmviewers letterboxd.com/SP_Filmviewers Rating and reviewing the show is a great help too!

The Bishop’s Wife Movie Review

Listeners rejoice! Thanks to the Patreons, our third festive episode of 2023 comes in the form of a black and white 40's flick called The Bishop's Wife, starring Cary Grant as a guardian angel helping out a troubled soul around Christmas time. Does this sound familiar? As we give you our short but sweet review of the movie to find out if it is to be deemed a classic, we discuss whether the effects looked magical or miserable, what life lessons we could all take from this story - and how many times can we say; 'It's a Wonderful Life'??? N.B. - you could make a drinking game out of it, and you'd wish you didn't have a refilling wine glass... ------------------------------------------------------- Don't forget to follow us on social media in the links below, and let us know your thoughts and recommendations for the future! instagram.com/sp_filmviewers twitter.com/SP_Filmviewers letterboxd.com/SP_Filmviewers Rating and reviewing the show is a great help too!
