Lots of movies this week! We didn’t see Ice Age: Collision Course (sorry), but we have horror thriller Lights Out, BritCom Absolutely Fabulous, and of course Star Trek Beyond!

Bored as Hell Podcast - This week's episode

Lights Out is a cool concept but the director telegraphs every move and scare. Not good. 1/10

Absolutely Fabulous might be for fans of the series only, but it is uproariously good for those fans. Sweetie Darling. 7.5/10 and a more full review here.

Star Trek Beyond is part heady sci-fi that deconstructs the essence of the franchise, and part big dumb action movie thanks to director Justin Lin. All kinds of fans will find different things to like here.  7.5/10 and a more full review here.

54 – Finding Dory

The big movie of the week is Finding Dory, and stick around to the end for our late-breaking In Memoriam to Anton Yelchin.  Random topics in this episode: better than popcorn but not as good as caramel apple sucker, Octodad. Pixar sequels and best Pixar movies, judging on the Spider-Man scale, seeing The Shallows and Jaws on the water, and buy your tickets for The Killing Joke for July 25th.

47 – Mother’s Sing Street Green Room Day

This week we’re down a castmember (we miss you Brooke!) but Andy and Adam review the catastrophe that is Mother’s Day and the spectacular Green Room and Sing Street. Also, Keanu came out this week, but if you want to hear about that, listen to our previous episode when Andy saw it at SXSW, when he gave it a 9/10.

Mother’s Day is awful. Don’t let your mother or any other human close to it. 2/10 because the actors are all very charming and talented and deserve better material. Andy’s more full review here.

Green Room is amazing. A story of punk rockers vs. neo-nazis with murder and evil Patrick Stewart. It follows a sort of horror movie pattern, but it’s incredibly inventive and fun.  Adam is in love with this. It’s a 10/10.

Sing Street is another film by John Carney (Once, Begin Again) and if you liked those you will love this too. Set in Dublin in the 80’s its soundtrack is full of classic 80s songs. Boy meets girl, boy starts band to impress girl, relationships between friends and lovers develop. Great story, great soundtrack. Andy’s favorite song and sequence from the movie:

It has a few problems (the ending is a little off) but it’s generally great. Andy’s more full review here and he gives it a 9/10.

Who are some of our favorite movie moms? NO! WIRE! HANGERS!
