There’s no big new releases this week (only Just Getting Started, which frankly didn’t get started) so we’re using this opportunity to cover some of the smaller films that took a little longer to acquire more than 5 reviews, and that’s a good thing too, because two of this week’s movies have made their way onto the Top 10 list:
Call Me By Your Name

Happy New Year everybody! Welcome to 2018, and what better way could there be to ring in the new year than by celebrating the best movies from the last one?
Jay was joined by Howard, Kristen, Rebecca and Nick to rank their top movies of 2017. Thanks also to Richard, Rob, DJ, Tony and Vern for submitting voicemail messages stating their personal favourites too, and apologies to Cameron and Justin for losing the first recording...
A few weeks ago on the Lambcast we held a musical draft, since then you’ve been voting on the teams, and now it’s time to reveal the results!
Victory goes to Jay – wait, that’s me! – whose team of Mary Poppins, The Blues Brothers, Moulin Rouge!, Chicago and Sing Street featured enough crowd-pleasers to garner the most votes, regardless of the fact that he doesn’t even like...
We’ve had a few weeks of so-called “lesser” movies, but this week we’ve got something special – not just one but two new movies that have both made their way onto the Top 10 Films of the Year! Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about The Shape of Water and The Disaster Artist:
The Shape of Water

The year is almost over, so it’s time to take a look back at the past twelve months and determine exactly what we enjoyed and despised. We have to do this, it is decreed by the powers that be, there’s no way around it, but we’re sticking it to the man this week by not doing movies – NO! – we’re talking TV.
Jay was joined by Robert, Nikhat, Tony and Lackey to rank their top TV of 2017. Thanks...
The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon!
There have been a few exceptions, but traditionally – an unintentionally – the Movie Of The Month for January is often a film not widely regarded as being critically, um, good. Whether that is the case for January 2018 is yet to be determined, but for now let’s say that if the film turns out to be terrible, I for one won’t be all that surprised....
Apologies for being a couple of days late this week, as with a lot of people this time of year, it gets pretty busy. Anyway, here’s what the LAMB Community had to say about Coco and Darkest Hour:

Yep, just like all the other shows out there, we’re talking about The Last Jedi, but wait, come back, this is not going to go the way you think!
Jay was joined by Star Wars super-fans Heather Baxendale, Jeanette Ward, Matthew Stewart and MovieRob, as well as a brief appearance from Kristen Lopez, to porg-out on The Last Jedi. There’s spoiler-free thoughts and a giant spoiler-filled section...
This week, let’s see what the LAMB community has to say about Wonder, Justice League and Roman J. Israel, Esq.:

The Last Jedi is out today, and whilst that’s the topic of next week’s show, this week we’re gearing up to it by looking at its director, Rian Johnson, and his previous three films.
Jay Cluitt was joined by Richard Kirkham, Chris Staron and Daniel Lackey to discuss Brick, The Brothers Bloom and Looper, as well as predict what Johnson will possibly do with a Star Wars...
This week was almost a write-off. Last week, I announced that the next Lambscores would look at Murder on the Orient Express, Daddy’s Home 2 and A Bad Mom’s Christmas, the latter of which I’d missed covering a couple of weeks earlier. I compiled the scores and links, but it was a thoroughly underwhelming and unimpressive list of movies. Then, however, I checked to see what next week’s films...
