In a jam-packed penultimate episode, the gang grades all films from the fourth quarter of 2023 and reviews three brand new ones:

• THE BOYS IN THE BOAT [00:10:51] - George Clooney strikes again with a rather detail-oriented period piece that somehow makes one nostalgic for a time they (nor the director) ever lived. Hear why it worked.

• THE COLOR PURPLE [00:22:03] - okay, so to try to get it straight, it's a reboot (kinda) based on the Broadway musical that was based on the book that the original movie based itself on. Maybe. Either way, it's a wieldy task for a multitude of reasons. Find out if it was successful in its attempt.

• FERRARI [00:40:05] - Kylo Ren put on a fake neck and a fake accent to try to tell the story of... well, the gang tries to parse that out while discussing the latest offering from Michael Mann.

• 2023 Q4 FILMS TIER LIST [01:05:22] - for the fourth time this year, the gang sits down with all theatrical releases from the previous three months and assigns individual grades. Find out if your favorites comport with the Movie Masters.

Five new movies covered this week:

• POOR THINGS [00:04:24] - Emma Stone and Willem Dafoe feature in what is truly one of the most remarkable feats on screen all year. Hear why the gang loved this one so much.

• AQUAMAN AND THE LOST KINGDOM [00:34:13] - Jason Mamoa and Amber Heard return. Surely the parking lots of movie theaters were packed for this one over the holidays, right? Right?

• ANYONE BUT YOU [01:02:43] - ...wherein some exec really thought it was a smart idea to try to have Sydney Sweeney lead a feature film. Was this the worst movie of the entire year or simply remarkably awful?

• IRON CLAW [01:20:01] - A24 tries to put their touch on territory wrestling lore and the "curse" of the von Erichs. Hear why many non-wrestling fans love it so much and why many wrestling fans maybe aren't as warm to it.

• MIGRATION [01:39:03] - an animation solo mission for one Movie Master! Find out if this one is worth seeking out.
