S27E112 Matt’s & The Talented Mr Ripley
Bad Dads Film Review heads to the Italian Riviera this week for The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) — a sun-drenched, jazz-soaked psychological thriller where gorgeous people do terrible things, and the…
S23E5 Midweek Mention... Margaret
The premise (simple, but the film isn’t): A privileged but messy NYC teenager, Lisa (Anna Paquin), causes a moment of distraction that leads to a bus hitting and killing a woman (Allison Janney). In…
S27E11 Train Dreams
This week’s pick is Train Dreams: a quiet, meditative Netflix drama adapted from Denis Johnson’s novella, following the life of Robert Grainer (Joel Edgerton) — a logger and railroad worker drifting…
S23E4 Midweek Mention... Road House
This week we head into full remake territory with Doug Liman’s glossy, bone-crunching update of Road House. Jake Gyllenhaal steps into Patrick Swayze’s boots as Dalton: a drifter, ex–UFC fighter, and…
S27E10 Roofman
This week Sidey watched Roof Man on a flight—and it turned out to be a surprisingly breezy true-crime oddity: part heist caper, part rom-com, all built around one ridiculous (but real) idea.What it’s…
S23E3 Midweek Mention... The RIP
A gritty, twisty one-night siege thriller that actually looks great (yes, you can see what’s happening). The RIP throws Matt Damon and Ben Affleck into a paranoid, internal-corruption nightmare where…
S27E9 Freaky Tales
We went in expecting a messy anthology and came out with a genuinely original love letter to Oakland, 1987 — four stories that start as separate vibes and then click together in the final act like a…
S23E2 Midweek Mention... Tron Ares
This one starts the way all great cinema analysis starts: Dan’s birthday sandwich (father-in-law today, Dan tomorrow, Mrs the day after), a bit of life admin, and then straight into neon sci-fi with…
S27E8 Avatar: Fire and Ash
We start this one the only way we know how: Pete quits his job (casually), we open a bottle of potentially corked wine (possibly poisonous), and then—somehow—end up reviewing Avatar 3, despite half…
S23E1 Midweek Mention... The Island of Dr Moreau

S27E7 The Night Manager
This episode begins, as ever, in total disarray: missed jokes, football updates, wine anxiety, and the creeping realisation that the best material always happens before the mic is on. Then Dan drops…
S23E1 Midweek Mention... The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
This episode begins the only way we know how: absolute chaos. We veer from wills, tits, and Stranger Things before eventually remembering we’re meant to be talking about a film. If you’re new here,…
S27E6 Wake Up Dead Man
Benoit Blanc is back — but not in the way you might expect.In this episode, we dig into Wake Up Dead Man, the third entry in Rian Johnson’s Knives Out series, and quickly realise this isn’t just…
S22E12 Midweek Mention... Die Hard
Die Hard is the kind of “comfort violence” film that never gets old!It’s a Christmas film for structural reasons, not vibes. Christmas isn’t just background dressing. The party only happens because…
S22E11 Midweek Mention... Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence
Homoeroticism, honour codes, and the least festive “Merry Christmas” ever recorded.This week’s pick looks like a seasonal warm hug by title alone, but it’s actually a POW-camp psychodrama where…
