The latest Movie of the Month has been decided upon! And boy was it a nail-biter this time around!
It was pretty close for four of the five films for almost the entire run (sadly my own All About Eve never really got off the starting block), but in the last few hours there was a last ditch attempt for both Rosemary’s Baby and Shame, with Shame eventually taking the crown by one solitary...
Your trusted editor was busy on film festival duty last weekend, so we have two week’s worth of new releases for you. These LAMBScores run the gamut from big budget spectacles (Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Noah) to niche arthouse/international imports (The Raid 2, Under the Skin,...
We’ve been going through a faze as of late with our Movie of the Months – if you want to get picked, it seems the best thing to do is champion a time travel movie. So when the Lambcast’s first trilogy edition came around and not one but three immensely popular time travel films were submitted, it’s no surprise that they won.
Todd Liebenow was the successful victor with his choice of the Back to the...
Hellloooo. It’s Shala from Life Between Films, your handy-dandy film festival contributor. This week kicks off the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival (TFF) in New York City! The festival is gearing up again to be heavy with special events outside of the regular film screenings including filmmaker/actor/industry panels, the Tribeca Drive-in, the Tribeca Family Street Festival, the Tribeca/ESPN Sports Day, and special film...
This week’s trio of new releases couldn’t be any more different. Undoubtedly, there is little overlap between the target audiences for Nymphomaniac: Vol. I, Muppets Most Wanted and Divergent. Find out below which film appealed most to the LAMB members and don’t forget to have your say in the forums.
It’s an indie week on the LAMBScores with a trio of smaller releases taking the spotlight. This includes Roger Michell’s Le Week-End, Rob Thomas’ Veronica Mars and Jason Bateman’s Bad Words. Of course, the major studios had to get in on the action, so we also have reviews for Need for...
There’s something for everyone this week with a unique trio of new releases. First we have the latest Wes Anderson flick The Grand Budapest Hotel. Next up, we also have reviews for the animated film Mr. Peabody & Sherman. Finally, we have a big franchise sequel in the form of 300: Rise of an Empire. Find out what the...
I recently put out the call for a new kind of Movie of the Month champion – a trilogy! We had an eclectic bunch of entrants, but as always there can be only one winner…

...This week brings a trio of new releases to the LAMBScores. First up is the latest Liam Neeson action-thriller Non-Stop. Next we have Hayao Miyazaki’s swansong The Wind Rises. Finally, we also have reviews for Son of God, adapted from the popular The Bible miniseries. Check below for...
It seems strangely fitting that a film with so many famous people in it should be discussed on a Lambcast with the fewest amount of guests in over 150 episodes.
The latest all-star Wes Anderson movie was highly praised by host Jay Cluitt and all-round amazing guest Nick Rehak, who more than made up for the lack of additional guests by being the film’s number one cheerleader.
Also on tap were many rants and raves of...
