Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 85: Triple 9

“Spoilerpiece Theatre” is a weekly movie podcast where I talk about new releases with fellow BOFCA critics Dave Riedel and Kris Jenson. We don’t give a shit about spoilers. We just want to talk about the movies.

In Episode 85 below, we review Triple 9, Gods of Egypt, and Tim Burton’s Batman. This week we give you the lowdown on our recording equipment, before Kris shares why the atrocious Gods of Egypt left him feeling rattled. Part of it has to do with its 120 minutes of confusing plot and Gerard Butler’s mysterious decision to use his Scottish accent. The whole experience left Kris too depressed to chide a fellow theatergoer for using his phone during the picture, so he decides to pass the mic. Next Dave and I review Triple 9, a movie that with lots of good killin’ and great action. Kate Winslet does a terrible Russian accent, the film is overstuffed with plot, and goes along too long, but Woody Harrelson is amazing, even if he could play his role in his sleep. Finally, we fulfill our promise from last episode of revisiting Tim Burton’s Batman. Dave and I go over the massive plot holes, continuity errors, and other various things that bother us from our most recent viewing, although we do take some time to talk about what we still love about the movie in spite of those shortcomings.
