Cinema Misfits Podcast, Episode 89: A Million Ways to Die In The West, Belle, and Godzilla

6 ‘n 90! Da Man reviews six films in ninety seconds.

A Million Ways to Die in the West. Unfortunately for Seth McFarland, there are almost as many ways to die at the box office. His latest film is one of them.

Belle. In French, it means a beautiful woman. But what about the film…about a beautiful mulatto woman born into an aristocratic world that can never fully accept her? Is Belle “bon” or simply “pas si bon”?

Godzilla.  The tag line for the 1998 Godzilla was “Size matters.” Fortunately, the tag line for the latest reimagining of Godzilla could be “Talent matters.”

Cinema Misfits Podcast, Episode 86: 300: Rise of an Empire, Non-Stop, and The Grand Budapest Hotel

6 ‘n 90!  Da Man reviews six films in ninety seconds.

300: Rise of an Empire.  According to Martin Luther:  “Blood alone moves the wheels of history.”  One thing’s for sure, blood certainly moves a wheel or two in Hollywood’s latest version of Greek history.

Non-Stop.  For the Misfits, the only thing non-stop about Liam Neeson’s new film is their disagreement about what does and doesn’t work.

The Grand Budapest Hotel. If M. Gustave were to describe the appeal of Wes Anderson’s dark screwball comedy to his lobby boy, Zero, he would certainly say that it had a certain je ne sais quoi. The Misfits, however, might just say, “It’s the best film of the year,” and leave it at that.
