Featuring roughly 1/3rd of the brat pack, as well as a very young, saxophone toting Rob Lowe, the film is one of those rare, special films that fits snugly into the category of "fascinatingly bad."
In spite of it's flaws, St. Elmo's Fire is a cozy watch, and one that both Kyle and Trevor find immensely rewatchable in the "so bad...

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 71 - Flight (2012)For this week's episode in Catching Up On Cinema's "Guilty Pleasures" event month, Trevor has Kyle check out Robert Zemeckis' heavy handed drama, Flight (2012)!
Starring Denzel Washington as an alcoholic pilot that performs a miraculous act of heroism while drunk on the job, is a clunky and somewhat tame character study that nevertheless earned it's star a Best Actor nomination.
While Trevor concedes that the film is fairly plain and not the best work of anyone involved, for whatever reason, he finds it very watchable, and thus, considers it a personal Guilty Pleasure film in...

Catching Up On CinemaThe Alien Masterclass - Part 2: Aliens (1986)In part 2 of our Alien Masterclass series, we review James Cameron's action/sci-fi game changer, Aliens (1986)!
Trevor's personal favorite in the franchise, the film is regarded as a classic among classics in it's genre, holding the reputation as being one of the rare sequels that manages to equal or surpass the original.
Starring a who's who of James Cameron regulars, and some of Stan Winston and James Horner's finest work, the movie is a masterpiece of cinema that deserves every minute of the 2 and a half hours that Kyle and Trevor dedicate to discussing it.

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 49 - Perfect Blue (1997)In the final episode of "Anime August," Trevor reviews the critically acclaimed psychological thriller, Perfect Blue (1997)!
The directorial debut of famed animator Satoshi Kon, the film is notable for it's elaborate editing and rich thematic content.
Please note, the original recording of this episode, featuring both Trevor and Kyle in the standard conversational format, was unfortunately lost due to a hard drive error.
As a result, Trevor was forced to re-record the episode without Kyle, making this the first (and hopefully last) instance of a "solo" episode in the show's history.

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 45 - The Shark is Still Working (2012)In this final installment of Catching Up On Cinema's "Movies About Making Movies" month, Kyle and Trevor take a look at The Shark is Still Working (2012), Erik Hollander's heartfelt documentary about the making and legacy of Steven Spielberg's legendary blockbuster film, Jaws (1975).
While the documentary is a little fluffy, and perhaps more of a tribute to rather than a true documentary of the making of Jaws, Kyle and Trevor manage to get a good conversation out of it, often going on random tangents and sharing anecdotes that are largely unrelated to the film.
Happy Shark...

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 43 - Kung Fu Elliot (2014)In this installment of our "Catching Up On Movies About Making Movies" month, Trevor introduces Kyle to the delightfully shocking Canadian documentary, Kung Fu Elliot (2014)!
Following the exploits of one Elliot "White Lightning" Scott and his attempts to make no budget action films and become "Canada's first action star", the documentary begins as a story about a wide-eyed dreamer, only to become something much darker and more compelling than most would expect.
Directed by Matthew Bauckman and Jaret Belliveau, Kung Fu Elliot is one of Trevor's favorite documentaries, and one we here at Catching Up...

In this special Theatrical Edition of Catching Up On Cinema, Kyle and Trevor head out to the theater to check out the 3rd entry in Legendary's "Monsterverse" franchise, Michael Dougherty's Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)!
Featuring the heaviest of heavy hitters in the long lived Godzilla franchise, the movie is an unapologetic love letter to the older generation Godzilla films.
While the human aspect of the story and plot is both problematic and unintentionally silly, the monster action is solid, and as Trevor...

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 39 - Spectre (2015)In the 2nd installment in Catching Up On Cinema's "Franchise Month," Trevor forces Kyle to subject himself to Sam Mendes' 2nd go 'round at the James Bond franchise: Spectre (2015)!
Boasting a strong cast and truly magnificent cinematography, the film is dragged down by a clumsy, lackluster script, and is regarded by many as one of the lesser Bond films of the modern era.
It needs to be said upfront, Trevor is an avid Bond fan, while Kyle is a casual viewer at best.

In this first episode of "Catching Up On Keanu" month, Trevor selects the grotesque lovechild of Ren, Stimpy, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Freaked (1993)!
Cheating the system a bit, Keanu actually only appears in the film in an uncredited capacity, while his longtime friend Alex Winters stars...

In this special Theatrical Edition of the podcast, Kyle and Trevor sit down to talk about the cinematic event of the decade, Avengers: Endgame (2019)!
The culmination of 22 movies worth of storyline, the film a relentlessly entertaining 3 hour plus spectacle of fanservice and comic book absurdity.
In more ways than one, it is the Back to the Future 2 of superhero movies.
That being said, is the movie any good?

Catching Up On CinemaEpisode 29 - The Killer (1989)In this episode, Trevor introduces Kyle to the Hong Kong filmography of John Woo by having him watch the Chow Yun Fat bullet ballet classic, The Killer (1989)!
With a bodycount in the triple digits, and squibs and stunts galore, the film is a melodramatic spectacle for the ages that ranks among Trevor's favorite films of his youth.

Starring most of the same folks from the first film, the film is largely devoid of redeeming value, and often feels painfully immature and dated.
Troy Duffy has seen The Godfather Part II and it's VERY IMPORTANT to him that you know that.

Directed by Wilson Yip, and starring the inimitable Donnie Yen (with fight choreography by the legendary Sammo Hung) the film is a personal favorite of Trevor's.
Full disclosure, this episode is less comedic than most, with Trevor mostly using it as an excuse to talk about his love for martial arts films in general.
