The time has come for another new episode of the Film After 11 podcast. This week, I introduce my son Joseph to the classic Bill Murray comedy Groundhog Day. The classic Bill Murray comedy Groundhog Day. Bill Murray comedy Groundhog Day. You see what I did there? Really subtle, huh? I’d make a joke about… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Groundhog Day (1993)
We’re all shook up on the Film After 11 podcast this week as we tackle director Ron Underwood’s 1990 horror comedy Tremors. The movie wasn’t much of a box office hit during its theatrical run, but quickly grew into a cult classic on home video. My son Thomas has taken an interest in horror movies… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Tremors (1990)
Vegas, baby! The Film After 11 podcast travels to the city of sin this week, in the company of George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and a whole bunch of famous friends. Yes, Film After 11 takes on Ocean’s Eleven in an 11-minute review with a 12-year-old viewer. Maybe I should have done this last year for… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Ocean’s Eleven (2001)
We’re all done with that alphabetical marathon on the Film After 11 podcast and, at the moment at least, not beholden to any specific theme. If you think of one, please let me know. In the meantime, this week’s episode is timed to correspond with the theatrical release of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. I figured… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Batman Begins (2005)
We’ve finally hit the end of our alphabetical marathon on the Film After 11 podcast. That of course brings us to the letter “Z,” for which I thought Ben Stiller’s fashion industry parody Zoolander would be a good choice. That movie’s rated PG-13, right? No, it’s rated R? Turns out, both are true. I explain… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Zoolander (2001)
As the Film After 11 podcast nears the end of its alphabetical marathon, we’re stuck with the letter “Y” and not a lot of good choices for a 12-year-old to watch. I very nearly picked the James Bond film You Only Live Twice, but had reviewed that myself just last year and wasn’t too eager… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | Young Guns (1988)
A secret government conspiracy to cover up the existence of aliens, you say? Where have I heard that one before? Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day (running in theaters as I write this) feels really late to the game on this subject, seeing that The X Files had eleven seasons of it on television, starting way back… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | The X Files: Fight the Future (1998)
I had no problem picking a “W” movie for this week’s installment of the Film After 11 alphabetical marathon. Of course, the 1991 comedy What About Bob? was an easy choice. Is it even possible for anyone to dislike this movie? I can’t imagine so. My son Joseph definitely enjoyed it. If his reaction in… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | What About Bob? (1991)
The Film After 11 podcast’s alphabetical marathon faced another dilemma when we hit the letter “V” this week. Put simply, pickings were very slim for this one. What I settled on was A View to a Kill, Roger Moore’s final outing as secret agent James Bond 007, but also my son Thomas’ first exposure to… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | A View to a Kill (1985)
What movie beginning with the letter “U” could my son and I watch for this week’s installment of the Film After 11 alphabetical marathon? Unforgiven? Good movie, but rated R. U-571? Meh. While we could talk about it being complete historical BS, it’s pretty mediocre and I’d rather watch a better submarine movie instead. The… Read More Film After 11 Podcast | UHF (1989)
