Sometimes it takes perseverance, hard work and trying again and again to achieve success. That was the case for this month’s Movie of the Month winner, Audrey, who put Sing Street forward time and again until it eventually defeated the other competitors. That’s not so much a rule for the film though, in which sometimes you can just pick up a guitar and almost immediately be a great musician. Regardless, this week’...
A new film came out in the cinema! We went to see it! And now we’re going to tell you about it, kind of, because not all of us knew exactly what the heck was going on. That’s right, it’s time for Tenet.
Jay and Richard were joined by Meg, Thomas and Tony to travel in an inverted universe with Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated and twice delayed summer blockbuster. Is it worth your time?...
Round 2 of October’s MOTM poll tournament is here! There were some tightly fought bouts in the first round, but only four films can move on, so let’s take a look at the results from round 1:
There we go, the four films moving on are Trick R Treat (2007), Mandy (2018), Candyman (1992) and Host (2020). It’s possible there’s some recency bias on display as the newest film in each match-up has proceeded onto...

Recently on the Lambcast we held a Time Travel Draft, in which Jay, Richard, Heather, Robert and Todd competed to build the best team of time travel movies, and now you get to decide who won! The poll is t the bottom of the page, but first, the teams!
Heather’s Team (Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Idiocracy, Looper, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Bill &...
It’s time to vote for October’s movie of the month! Hold up though, this month is a bit different. Not only is October’s Movie of the Month horror-themed, but it appears some ghostly gremlins have gotten into the polling plug-in, and are limiting the poll to at most three movies. This is a problem, as we’ve got ten! So for this month, and until this issue is resolved, we’ll be determining the MOTM with a...
Hey folks, remember April? Remember when everything closed and all us nonessential folk went home and realised there weren’t any new releases? We got a little glum, but thought “This’ll only be for a few weeks or so, we’ll be back in the cinemas by summer!” Ah, what sweet, naive children we were, and clearly the movie industry was just as hopeful and foolish, as April was pretty barren new-release-wise. That was...
We recorded this show in the past, you’re listening to it in the future, and it’s free, so consider this a present! It’s time to talk about time, specifically films that play with it in interesting ways by travelling back and forth through it multiple times. It’s the Time Travel Draft!
Jay and Richard were joined by Heather, Robert and Todd to search through time for the best films to traipse through the...
We’ve been waiting for a scheduled release of No Time To Die and, frankly, who knows when that will definitely be, so we’ve just gone ahead and finished our six-part James Bond Franchise Lookback regardless.
Richard and Jay were joined by DJ, Justin and newcomer Tyler to ride the rollercoaster of quality that is Daniel Craig’s Bond career, taking in some of the best films, characters and scenes, and...
Hi folks, hope everyone is keeping as well as possible in the mosquito-filled jockstrap that is 2020. As some of you may have noticed, this year’s cinema release schedule took something of a nosedive a few months ago, and the weekly Lambscores feature petered out along with it, but it’s back! And different! Kind of! For now at least! Exclamations!
Anyway, a bunch of films got released digitally during that period of the...
Netflix have another new movies out, and this one’s about superheroes! Kind of! Jamie Foxx, Dominique Fishback and Joseph Gordon-Levitt star in Project Power, which features a new drug that gives users random superpowers for just 5 minutes, and we’re here to talk about it.
Jay and Richard were joined by Getter, Patricia and Bubbawheat to dig into the effects, powers and accents on display, before the usual...
It’s time to announce the latest Movie of the Month winner! We’ve had a few films submitted repeatedly at every available opportunity for a while now, and once again this week’s result shows that persistence pays off! For September 2020 our movie of the month is… Sing Street!
Congratulations finally go to Audrey Fox of 1001 Movies and Beyond who successfully championed Sing Street to...
