  • Episode # 353 Logan Lucky with Matt, Tim and Jack from Sequelisers
    Jul 3 2024
    The Art of the Heist: Why "Logan Lucky" is a Must-Watch Heist movies have been thrilling audiences for decades with their intricate plots, charismatic characters, and the undeniable rush from watching a well-crafted caper unfold. "Logan Lucky," directed by Steven Soderbergh, is an exceptional entry in this exciting genre. Here's why you should add it to your must-watch list. A Fresh Take on Familiar Territory At its core, "Logan Lucky" is about pulling off an impossible robbery. But rather than treading overused ground, it offers a fresh perspective by setting the action in the American South and infusing every scene with heart and humour. Channing Tatum leads as Jimmy Logan—a man determined to reverse his family's curse with one grand heist during a NASCAR race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Star-Studded Performances That Charm The film boasts both grounded and delightfully over-the-top performances—none more so than Daniel Craig's Joe Bang, an explosives expert who steals every scene he’s in. The trio makes for an unforgettable team, with Adam Driver playing Jimmy’s one-armed brother Clyde and Riley Keough as their sister Mellie. The cast also includes cameos from actors known for beloved TV shows like Parks and Recreation, which adds another layer of enjoyment for fans who spot these familiar faces. Laughs That Keep You Engaged While some may expect “Logan Lucky” to be another high-stakes drama, it surprises viewers with genuine laughs throughout its runtime. Its Southern charm doesn't come across as cartoonish. Still, it endears you further to each character’s quirks—and let's not forget those comedic moments that land perfectly thanks to impeccable timing by the ensemble cast. Rewatchability Factor Through the Roof One key aspect where “Logan Lucky” shines is rewatchability; there’s always something new to notice upon subsequent viewings. Whether it's foreshadowing you missed or a line delivery that suddenly stands out—it keeps drawing you back for more fun discoveries. Perfect For Any Screen Size In today’s streaming-dominated world, not all films transition well from big screen to small screen, but “Logan Lucky” does so seamlessly. Without relying heavily on visual effects or expansive set pieces, it maintains its charm whether viewed on your home theatre or laptop screen. Final Thoughts “Logan Lucky” checks all the boxes when it comes to what makes a great film: engaging storylines full of twists and turns, memorable characters portrayed by talented actors, rewatch value through clever details, accessibility across viewing platforms, and loads of fun! If you haven’t yet experienced this gem—or even if you have—consider planning your next movie night around “Logan Luck.” It promises entertainment galore!

  • Episode # 352 Creep with Barney Boom and Laila Khan from Sonic Boom Six
    Jun 26 2024
    Barney Boom and Laila Khan from Sonic Boom Six return to Flixwatcher to review Barney’s choice Creep. Creep (2014) is a found footage horror film directed by Patrick Brice and based on a story by Brice and Mark Duplass, who both star. Inspired by Brice’s experience on Craigslist, Brice plays Aaron, a struggling videographer who accepts a request from Josef (Duplass). The request is to join Josef in his remote cabin to film a video diary for his unborn son. Josef tells Aaron he has inoperable cancer and wants to leave a video legacy. As Josef exhibits increasingly bizarre behaviour Aaron begins to regret accepting the assignment. Creep is 77 minutes of very strange and creepy behaviour, some of the scenes are deeply disturbing but also hilarious. Recommendability scores for Creep were mixed, while Flixwatcher and guests loved it, due to it’s disturbing content it isn’t an easy one to widely recommend. A runtime of 77 minutes helped with engagement and repeat viewing scores to give an overall rating of 4.11.
