S1E52: Cats v Jojo Rabbit PLUS The Best & Worst of 2019

Me-OW! It's the end of the year and just as we were preparing our Best & Worst of 2019 list, we had a couple of late entrants into both categories.

Before we get into what elevated and sank the mood in 2019 (they're not necessarily the worst films, we're just very disappointed), Jonathan Roberts and Cheow Sue-Ann delve into some current releases – Tom Hooper's take on Cats and Taika Waititi's boy-with-Hitler-as-a-best-friend war movie, Jojo Rabbit.

Skip to theses times for the different segments.

01.00: Everything wrong with Tom Hooper's Cats – a film that has gone so wrong that it deserves to be seen. 

10.40: Taika Waititi's  Jojo Rabbit – a film so good it's effectively the best film of 2019 (according to Jonathan)

15.00: Best & Worst of 2019. Joker, Parasite, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, Aladdin, Lion King, Us, Marriage Story – listen on to find out where they rank.

Thanks for listening and here's to amazing films in 2020.
