High Five: The Podcast is a movie podcast for people who like other stuff too. Seems pretty simple, and it is.
What are the top 5 best horror movies of all time? What about the top 5 best video game adaptations? Do you know what the top 5 movies featuring anthropomorphized animals are? You will after becoming a devoted listener to High Five: The Podcast!
So yeah, listen now and stuff…….that’s it……..go away.
Every now and then a movie that’s not a Summer blockbuster sneaks under the radar and gives us something off-center and intriguing, which seems to be the case with Dave Made a Maze. This movie looks like a weird amalgamation of Michel Gondry’s Be Kind Rewind and Mark Z. Danielewski’s novel House of Leaves, which is not a criticism in the slightest. Escapism is a popular theme in movies…
If you’ve listened to our Most Rewatchable TV Shows episode, you know that here at High Five: The Podcast, we are HUGE fans of Rick & Morty. It’s a masterclass in writing for comedy and sci-fi, and the layers of jokes in each episode is mind-boggling. It feels like we’ve been waiting for season 3 of Rick & Morty to begin for 5 years now (it’s…
My G’wahd broh, this Stronger TrialerTown looks wicked good. Get your tissues ready for this when it comes out (you may even need them for the TrailerTown), because Jake Gyllenhaal’s portrayal of a Boston Marathon bombing victim is not only going to tug at your heartstrings, it has every intention of ripping them out and then strangling you with them. From the looks of this peek, Stronger has…
Sometimes, when we sit around and wonder to ourselves about movies, a question that comes up is “Why hasn’t someone made a good horror movie using the repeating day framing device from Groundhog Day?” Well, luckily for us, the writers and director of Happy Death Day had the same question and were actually able to get off their asses and make it. We don’t know if it…
Just like we were surprised and delighted to see how much we loved Chadwick Boseman’s portrayal of T’Challa (Black Panther) in Captain American: Civil War, we were just as surprised and delighted when Marvel released the first TrailerTown for Ryan Coogler’s full Black Panther movie this week. There are laughs, there are heart-stopping action pieces, there are tears, there are restraining orders. It has it all….
Here at High Five: The Podcast, we are hit or miss on Tom Cruise, but his new film AMERICAN MADE looks to be an exciting “true story” ride. Between a coke-covered Tom Cruise riding a bicycle to his “should have taken the Cadi’s, boys” delivery, we are excited to see what Tom can pull off with his portrayal of real-life smuggler Barry Seal. Before you make any…
Pick your character and draw your cards, because the Murder on the Orient Express TrailerTown is inviting you to play Clue with them on a train. In the upcoming adaptation of the famous novel of the same name, a slew of famous people investigate a snowy murder and it’s up to Kenneth Branagh doing his best “I look like Ewan McGregor” impression to figure out Who Dun…
Fresh off his years directing for TV (the excellent The Knick and Behind the Candelabra), Steven Soderbergh is back behind the director’s chair for Logan Lucky, in what looks like a true return-to-form for a director that never really left. Soderbergh’s ability to mix action and comedy, as well as dive into social issues and layer in conversation points, has always been a welcome addition to our eyeballs,…
Netflix just keeps the good stuff coming our way (we’ve already discussed Okja), and this new TrailerTown for the Jason Bateman-helmed OZARK show looks to keep this tradition going. Sure, you could say it looks like Breaking Bad, but is that really such a bad thing? Both Jason Bateman and Laura Linney look to be bringing a lot to the table, but we’ll let you be…
Okay, we know we’ve already posted a TrailerTown review for Spider-Man: Homecoming on here, but Marvel just released a third trailer for it and it looks AMAZING. We don’t have a new Top 5 list about this, but between the additions of more plot points, Donald Glover, and a continued focus on the humor of this iconic character, we couldn’t pass up sharing the new…
