The Cinema Psychos Show
When you think of gross out/sex comedies of the 2000's-2010's; What films come to mind? Do you automatically go to such classics like "Road Trip". Or perhaps you are a bit more sophisticated and prefer to sing "Scotty Doesn't Know!" as you binge watch Euro Trip for the 50th time. Or maybe there is a deep dark crevace in your DVD rack that holds one of the most unfunny and purely vile films to grace the silver screen.....No its not 500 Days of Sodom. Its 2013's "MOVIE 43." A movie that some might view as a practical joke played on both the actors in the film...

After a bit of a break, we are back with a brand new episode. And after our foray into high cinema with last episode's extensive review of "The Batman". We figured we had to follow up such a high mark in cinema with a complete turd of a movie. Kinda like having your delicious taco bell then suffering for it about an hour or so later. And boy of boy do we have a stinker this week. What happens when you combine a bunch of c list actors with Kelsey Grammer, The Laurence Brothers, and Edge fro WWE? You get 2020's hot mess, "Money Plane". A movie that begs...

This week, Brian and John don't just emerge from the shadows, they are the shadows.....well not quite. More like they emerged from the shadows of a movie theater with smilex gas grins across their faces after seeing Matt Reeves' "The Batman". Fair warning, this review does contain some spoilers. So if you have yet to see the film, please check it out first. But with this being the 3rd batman to be introduced in less than 20 years, does this version of the caped crusader hold up against the down to earth version of Bale's Batman or the roided up part time leader of the...

This week, we are back with a long long long overdue breakdown of the year that was 2021. Yes it's March and yea this is usually the time of the year when we pull a bad Leprechaun movie to review...but 2021 was full of so much insanity, how could we not spend some time talking about it. How much insanity do you ask? Well we've got everything from the tragedy and revolt of film workers to those we lost....and those we cancelled. As well as the highest grossing and lowest grossing films of the year. So put away the spring cleaning for just a minute, as we take a...

This time we are jacking in to the entire storied trilogy with a specific question driving us,"How can a franchise go from being a perfect summation of late 90's cyber punk culture to laughable meme?"

This week, we are jacking in "hehe" back into the world of kung fu and bullet-time with a long awaited review of The Matrix Resurrections. A movie that no one really asked for that arrived 20 years too late in the middle of a pandemic and oh yea....as part of the rooster of HBO Max movies that has had it's theatrical revenue undercut by streaming. But aside from all those things in "the real world" going against it, what about the movie itself? Does The Matrix Resurrections live up to the original techno philosophy of the 1999 classic or like the sequels from 2003 fall face...

This week, we are back from the multiverse of franchise madness and boy oh boy do we have a doozey of an episode to you with our review of Spiderman: No Way Home. A movie that has proved to be one of the biggest films since Avengers: Endgame and one of the most buzz worthy films in recent years. Literally all of 2021 was a combination of news on the pandemic and rumors and leaks about just how many spidermen would be in Spiderman: No Way Home. But does a movie with that much buzz actually deliver? We've seen so many times that when fans get whipped up into a frenzy that...

info_outlineThis week, Brian, John, and Elaine are traveling to the singular bright spot in the eternally dismal and brown filtered ridiculousness that is the DC Extended Universe of films. We are of course talking about the warrior princess herself, Wonder Woman! We try to answer some of the burning questions of the film such as will Dr. Maru start a youtube makeup vlog and how many times can you fit a slow mo fight scene in a minute? In all seriousness, we are looking at the nitty gritty elements of this surprisingly refreshing film in a genre that is overpacked and at times can be stale.
