Another eclectic mix of movies for you this week, and this time the highest voted film, and one that jumps straight to the number 1 spot on the LAMBScores table for the year, is one that I’ve barely even heard of!

Captain...
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice may not have been as well received as many would have liked, but everything looked promising for DC and Warner Brothers with Suicide Squad, the much-anticipated blockbuster starring the likes of Will Smith, Margot Robbie and, um, Jai Courtney as some of Batman’s most notorious villains, banded together to take on threats only the expendable could face. Popular critical...
Time to look at one of 2016’s most divisive films this week, Paul Feig’s reboot of the 1984 classic, Ghostbusters. Whether you went in with an open mind or were a dyed-in-the-wool “Ghost-Bro”, or came out raving or grumbling, everyone seemed to have a different opinion, but what did the LAMB community have to say? Check out our reviews below, along with some thoughts on the latest Bryan Cranston vehicle,...

This was supposed to be another edition of LambyWeds, with LAMB podcasting couples competing to see how well they know each other, but alas due to numerous scheduling and technical errors various couples could not make it, so instead here’s a show where we talk about movies! Y’know, like every week!
Jay Cluitt was joined by David Brook, Darren Lucas, Heather Baxendale, DJ Valentine and newcomer Damien Riley to discuss...
Changes to the leader board again this week, with the “Farting Corpse Movie” proving far better than that high concept would have you believe. In fact, this week proves that a giant budget and flood of marketing doesn’t guarantee a great movie, as you could practically plot on a graph this week that the bigger the film, the worse the reviews. Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about the recent major...
