After Erik came up with Gremlins 2 as his underrated pick, we decided to watch as much as director Joe Dante's filmography as possible and thought that he was underrated enough to warrant a bonus episode discussion. An integral part of the 80s Blockbuster movement along with Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Robert Zemeckis, we believe that he doesn't get as much credit as some of the other big names from the era. Therefore, we wanted to give this Looney Tunes and 50s B-movies-inspired madman ...

In this new episode of Over/Under Movies, a podcast where we review one overrated and one underrated film, Erik, Ryan, and Oktay catches sequel fever and dig into two blockbuster sequels from the very late 80s (One of them technically counts as being from the very early 90s, but whatevs). The movie picks for this episode comes courtesy of Erik. First we discuss whether or not Back to the Future Part II is a good film or even a good sequel on its own, regardless of how fun and crazy it might be. ...

For this new episode, Erik, Ryan, and Oktay head into the unforgiving American frontier as they discuss three Westerns told from a female perspective. First off, instead of one overrated pick, our critics offer two films for the price of one. They delve into both the 1969 and the 2010 versions of Charles Portis' classic Western revenge novel, True Grit. They try to answer the question, "If a remake is better than the original in every possible way, can it still be overrated?" Then, it's time for...

"The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door." - Fredrick Brown It's time for Oktay, Erik, and Ryan to wallow in their manly loneliness in a post apocalyptic hellscape as they drive around Manhattan in a corvette, hunting dear, and talking to mannequins. Then, they try their best to make sense out of a New Zealand where every other living thing disappeared without a trace. Maybe they forgot that the Return of the King premiere was taking place in Wellington at the ti...

We're changing things up a bit at Over/Under Movies this time around so instead of talking about one overrated and one underrated movie as usual, we're focusing on the early work of a lesser-known but talented director that at least one of our co-hosts thinks is underrated. That director is Ben Wheatley, who uses his low budget but impressively beautiful mumblecore-style digital cinematography skills to create equally hilarious and disturbing stories about British working class folks going off i...

"It's time to go back... To the future!"... Or, to the past, or, to randomly jump back and forth through moments in a WWII vet's life as an allegory on the absurdities of evil. In this new episode of Over/Under Movies, where we discuss one overrated and one underrated film, our panel of critics dig into two time travel flicks, both of which were picked by Oktay, with help from Ryan and Erik, who were fueled by their disdain for our underrated pick, which is...

This episode's movies were picked by our awesome co-host Ryan Oliver. First, Erik, Oktay and Ryan betray their friendship and backstab each other in order to be...

In this new episode of Over/Under Movies, where we pick apart one overrated and one underrated film, we dive into the criminal underbelly of 70s Harlem. And who better to do that than three film critics from the Pacific Northwest? First off, we talk about 1972's Across 110th Street, which grittily depicts the investigation of a robbery during a 24-hour period. Is it a simple Blaxploitation film the way its reputation suggests, or is there something deep underneath? Then, we find ourselves in an ...

It's Spielberg vs Spielberg in this episode of Over/Under Movies, as the gang dig deep into two Spielberg sci-fi efforts in hopes of finding either a tripod that can disintegrate them into dust or a robot boy who's been frozen for a couple of millennia. First, we talk about Spielberg's misguided HG Wells adaptation War of the Worlds, which was a big hit when it came out in 2005 and got forgotten down the line, perhaps for some good reasons? Are one of those reasons the fact that Tom Cruise is wo...

It gets hot and steamy in the podcast room as Erik, Ryan, and Oktay discuss two erotic thrillers from the 90s. First, we buy an icepick from K-Mart and crack into Basic Instinct, the 1992 mega hit that kickstarted the erotic thriller craze, which dominated a good chunk of that decade. Did Paul Verhoeven's tongue-in-cheek direction come close to saving Joe Eszterhas' terrible screenplay? Next, we move onto more level-headed and less juvenile territory as we dig into Crash, David Cronenberg's deft...

"Are you listening closely?" Magic is in the air in the new episode of Over/Under Movies as our critics discuss two movies that deal with magic and illusion. First off, 2009's cynical cash grab Sherlock Holmes gets a beating from the critics after becoming a huge hit with audiences for some reason and even garnering some positive reviews. Then we move onto Christopher Nolan's pre-Inception ode to the magic of filmmaking with 2006's "The Prestige" as we also talk about the unfair Nolan backlash t...

It's Bob Fosse week at Over/Under Movies as Erik, Oktay and Ryan bring their jazz hands to discuss two examples of the great choreographer and director's legendary work. We dive headfirst into Fosse's brutally honest, fearless, heartfelt and infinitely creative semi-autobiographical masterpiece All That Jazz. From there, we move on to the breezy, fun, yet admittedly overpraised big screen adaptation of Fosse's blockbuster Broadway musical Chicago. As usual, thank you for listening, please send u...

In this episode, Erik, Ryan and Oktay mock death as they tackle two comedies about the hilarious subject of cancer. First off is a pandering, cynical, shameless, manipulating, insulting cash-grab called The Fault in Our Stars, which Oktay hated so much, he reconsidered his friendship with Ryan for making him watch it. Erik, Ryan and Oktay discuss this piece of doggie doo doo as they become downright suicidal over the fact that it beat the excellent Edge of Tomorrow (Or whatever the hell it's cal...
