Our Editor's Take
Mad About Movies is an excellent podcast for anyone searching for insightful film reviews. The team consists of friends Kent Garrison, Richard Bardon, and Brian Gill. Cohosts Richard and Kent created the podcast after receiving praise for the movie reviews on their radio show. They are also active on social media. Their good friend and writer Brian joins them for all the film critiques and chats. Passionate about film, they share their opinions and those from the community. It's an entertaining series dedicated to the world of cinema.
Mad About Movies started in 2013, so there's an extensive playlist for listeners to enjoy. It was only a short time before the podcast found success within the film community. One sign of this is their accreditation from trusted review source Rotten Tomatoes.
Each episode selects a movie of the week for the team to review. The team examined the film in detail when Disney released their remake of The Little Mermaid. How important is it to re-create these famous films? Are they remaking too many?
Brian shared his experience watching the film in the cinema with his wife and child. He compared the packed theater for The Little Mermaid, in contrast to watching the Fast X film. The team also rated the box office results against other live-action remakes.
Creed 3 was another film reviewed by the team. Michael B. Jordan directs and stars in the movie in this third installment. The team talks about their anticipation for the film, having enjoyed the first two. They also have lots of questions. How did Michael do as a director? Is this the last film in the series? How does it compare to the Rocky series?
The team reviews all film genres, from Barbie to John Wick to Babylon to The Flash. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and The Super Mario Bros. Movie also get discussed. The hosts even did a look back at the 20th anniversary of Gigli. They deliver separate movie news roundup episodes and personal film recommendations throughout. Mad About Movies is an entertaining podcast for weekly film news and reviews.
