For this week's main podcast review, we're reviewing a new film release for a change! Originally set to have its world premiere at this year's South By Southwest Film Festival, "The Lovebirds" finds director Michael Showalter re-teaming with his "The Big Sick" star Kumail Nanjiani and pairing him up this time with Issa Rae in this romantic-crime-comedy. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is now a Netflix film and many have had the chance to watch it at home. What did we think of it though? Tune in to hear thoughts from Dan Bayer, Daniel Howat, and myself. Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture The 2014 retrospective continues this week with one of the year's more challenging films, Paul Thomas Anderson's adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's "Inherent Vice." With an incredibly dense noir plot, lots of characters, and plenty of comedic gags, this one gave us a lot to talk about as our reactions were pretty split. We do our best to break down the film's whacky and ever-evolving story, the performances (led by Joaquin Phoenix), the technicals, and more! Joining me for this podcast review I have Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, Cody Dericks, Danilo Castro & Patreon guest Travis Clark. Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

For this week's main podcast review, we have a packed house for Academy Award Winner Bong Joon-ho's first english language film. "Snowpiercer" starring Chris Evans, Octavia Spencer, Tilda Swinton, Song Kang-jo, Jamie Bell and more! Released in 2014 to critical acclaim for its story and creative world building, it is now being adapted into a television series for TNT. Fitting into our 2014 retrospective and after Bong Joon-ho's profile raised considerably with "Parasite" we decided this was a more than appropriate film to revisit.
