Just one movie for you this week, the latest from Spielberg, Ready Player One. On a personal note, this was my most anticipated movie for 2018, and yes I’m a little disappointed not everyone enjoyed it as much as me, and in fact I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as I’d hoped to, but it was liked enough to make it onto the Lambscores Top 10, if only temporarily. I wonder how long it will stay there! Anyway,...
Anime! Frustration! Kids! Superheroes! More superheroes! All this and more on this week’s Lambcast!
Richard Kirkham takes his first turn in the hosting chair and is joined by Audrey Fox, Tony Cogan, Zoe Rose Smith and JD Duran to run through their own personal top 5 lists. Audrey goes gaga for child actors, Zoe lets out some work frustration, Tony gets animated over anime and JD and Richard almost team up for a superhero...
Two films for you this week: the big-budget popcorn sequel to Pacific Rim and the no-budget shot-entirely-on-an-iPhone Unsane from Steven Soderbergh. I don’t know about you, but I for one would like to see an experiment where the production processes of these two movies was switched. What would Soderbergh do with a big pile of money when it came to shooting a very small film? And think of the ingenuity required to...
It’s been a long time since we recorded a Whatcha Been Watchin’ Lately show and, given how much fun this week’s episode was, clearly we shouldn’t let such a long gap happen again.
Jay was joined by Nick, David and Kami to chat about some movies they’ve seen recently, ranging from a near-silent horror, a crime-thriller, a weather-based disaster flick and whatever the heck Super Inframan is....
Welcome Back Students!

Like The Director’s Chair series being run by Tony, I think that this reignited series is a great way to get a look at what the members of the Lamb community think about the work of some of the most prolific actors/actresses who have been entertaining us all for so many years.
I plan to try and focus on an actor or actress every month who has a birthday in that given...
This month’s Acting School 101 teacher was Michelle Pfeiffer.
We received a total of 113 reviews for 36 films that Michelle Pfeiffer had parts in.
That’s quite an impressive amount.

Our Spielberg coverage concludes this week with a very well-timed movie of the month win for the Indiana Jones franchise, a collection of four films varying from some of the greatest ever made to at least one we’d have preferred not to discuss, but dammit we did anyway.
Jay was joined by the franchise’s champion, Jeanette Ward, along with Todd Liebenow, Richard Kirkham and Getter Trumsi to dig into and...
It’s time to vote for May’s Movie of the Month! The poll is at the bottom of the page, but first, the contenders!
The Producers (1967) [Howard Casner, Rantings and Ravings]
The Man Who Would Be King (1975) [Richard Kirkham, Kirkham A Movie A Day]
Midnight Run (1988) [Todd Liebenow, Forgotten Films]
The week we’re looking at today heralded quite a few releases, but evidently not many of you actually saw Gringo, The Leisure Seeker, Strangers: Prey at Night or The Hurricane Heist, as only a handful of reviews were submitted for them all in total. Fear not though, as also released that week was a much bigger movie, albeit one that didn’t exactly set our critical world aflame with heralds of...
Are you sick of the state of the world today? Want to escape to a place where everything is wonderful and exciting? A place of diverse opinions but mutual respect and appreciation for movies and life in general? Then why not listen to the latest Lambcast episode, dedicated to Spielberg’s latest blockbuster, Ready Player One.
Jay was joined by Audrey, Cameron, Matt and newcomer Getter to delve into the Oasis and...
As you should already know by now, Michelle Pfeiffer is our actress of the month in the newly-revived Acting School 101 feature, being hosted by me, MovieRob. Alongside the monthly blogathon held here on the LAMB site, I will also be hosting a monthly podcast episode devoted to the actor and their roles, and wouldn’t you know it but that’s this very show here!
I was joined by Damien Riley from Riley On Film to...
