    Lambscores: Going in Style

    Not much to report this week, with only one release receiving enough review for a Lambscores, and even then only just. Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about Going in Style:

    LAMBCAST #372 GET TO KNOW YOUR LAMBCASTERS

    I know you all listen to the Lamncast every week without fail, intently tuning in to hear our opinions on movies and the world of film, but do you ever want to know more about us, the people behind the podcast? Well worry no more!

    It’s been a little while since our last Get To Know Your Lambcasters, and in that time the show has gained a flock of new regular guests, so on this show we’re going to find out a little...

    LAMBCAST Extra Portion: Acting School 101 – Bill Paxton

    As you should know by now, Bill Paxton (RIP) is our actor of the month in the newly-revived Acting School 101 feature, being hosted by MovieRob. Alongside the monthly blogathon held here on the LAMB site, Rob 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!

    Rob was joined by Heather Baxendale from the MILFcast to discuss all...

    Lambscores: Baby in the Shell

    A human mind in a robot body or an adult mind in a baby’s body, which is better? You decide! I haven’t seen either of these films and, judging by the general feedback I probably never will (unless either wins a future Movie of the Month poll), so apologies if those over-simplified descriptions aren’t terribly accurate. You know who has seen these films and can tell you more about them? The LAMB members who wrote the...

    LAMBCAST #371 FAST & FURIOUS FRANCHISE

    Sixteen years ago, if you’d told me that there’d go on to be at least seven sequels to The Fast and The Furious, I’d have shaken my head in disbelief and questioned the sanity of the world we lived in and whether it’d really be worth carrying on if that was the future that awaited me. Actually, I’d probably have asked “What’s this fast and furious thing you’re talking about?”...

    Lambscores: The Life of a Power Ranger

    Where the heck did Life come from? I swear there are movies that just kind of creep up on you, until the day they get released and suddenly they’re on every bus-side and billboard, and for me that was Life, and apparently it’s actually pretty good. On the other hand, Saban’s Power Rangers was over-marketed to the point of parody, and looked awful, but some people seemed to like it. Here’s what the...

    LAMBCAST #370 DIRTY HARRY FRANCHISE MOTM

    The latest Movie of the Month franchise special – which joins the ranks with the Back to the Future trilogy, the Godfather trilogy and the Airport franchise – is the Dirty Harry series, five movies following the busiest and seemingly most chaos-attracting detective in San Francisco.

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Todd Liebenow, Jacob Lusk, Howard Casner and Dirty Harry superfan...

    Lambscores: Beauty and the Begbie

    More remakes and sequels this week, as we take a look at a long-anticipated and warmly-received sequel, and in my opinion a less-anticipated, highly unnecessary and frankly lacklustre big budget remake. Here’s what the LAMB community has to say about T2: Trainspotting and Beauty and the Beast:

    Lambcast #369 Danny Boyle Director Retrospective

    Since his debut with 1994’s Shallow Grave, Danny Boyle has been one of the most interesting and varied British film-makers, trying his hand at practically every genre and combining stunning visuals, powerful performances and awesome soundtracks, so with the long-anticipated released of the Trainspotting sequel, it’s about time we devoted a whole show to him.

    Lambscores: Kong: Skull Island

    The blockbusters are going to start coming thick and fast as the summer approach begins! This week’s sees the largest Kong yet, taking on an Apocalypse, Now-style army platoon out for his blood, but is it any good? I liked it a great deal, but who cares about what I think, when there’s a whole community of LAMBs to be consulted instead:

    Lambcast #368 Bring A Discussion Topic

    It’s time for another edition of Bring A Discussion Topic!

    Jay Cluitt was joined by Heather Baxendale, Zoe Rose Smith, Howard Casner and newcomer Simon Appleton, all of whom brought along a different topic of conversation that they wanted to chat about. We covered trailers, horror music, movie news, directors vs writers and actors, but took a few tangents along the way too, as usual.

    Also on tap: Rants and Raves of...

    LAMB TRACKS #3 JURASSIC PARK 3 COMMENTARY

    Part three of our Jurassic Park movie commentary series is here!

    Elwood Jones was joined once again by Jay Cluitt as well as Justin Gott, parasailing back onto the Lambcast after far too long of a break. The trio chatted over the movie and it’s many, many flaws, but did their best to at least try and find some positives along the way.

    We’ll continue the franchise coverage next month, but if there are...
