15 | A Film Review Podcast
Comedy charlatans Luke Oddie and Dan Wade try to convince you that their film reviews, formed after watching just the first 15 minutes, are as nuanced and perceptive as any less lazy critic's.
Episodes
Although we're a little late, it's that time of the year again. Here come our favourite films of the year!
In this special episode of 15 | A Film Review Podcast, Luke and Dan each give a rundown of their Top 10 movies from 2023.
The duo are picking from the likes of Oppenheimer, Barbie, Poor Things, Past Lives, Saltburn, The Holdovers and Wonka (Dan has better not put that abomination in his Top 10).
In the latest episode of 15 | A Film Review Podcast, Luke and Dan continue to watch some of the most acclaimed films of 2023. The pair of films they review in full this week are BlackBerry and Anatomy of a Fall.
Matt Johnson's BlackBerry is a fictional account of the creation of the BlackBerry line of mobile phones by co-founders Douglas Fregin and Mike Lazaridis, and investor Jim Balsillie, played by Johnson, Jay Ba...
This time on 15, Luke and Dan rattle off their reviews for three recent films that they should have got round to critiquing sooner.
Firstly, Luke gets frustrated by Wonka, the musical fantasy film directed by Paul King, who co-wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby. The picture tells the origins of Willy Wonka, featuring his early days as a chocolatier. Starring Timothée Chalamet as the title character, and with an ense...
In this episode of 15 | A Film Review Podcast, in preparation for the Oscars, Luke Oddie and Dan Wade review two of the biggest contenders.
To begin with, the duo review Alexander Payne's The Holdovers. The comedy-drama is set in the winter of 1970–71 and stars Paul Giamatti as a strict classics teacher who is forced to chaperone a handful of students with nowhere to go over Christmas break. Co-stars Da'Vine Joy ...
That's right, it's time for the Oscars (well, not technically, they aren't until March)
Listen as Luke and Dan react live to hearing the 2024 Oscar nominations.
The big questions get answered...
- Will Oppenheimer sweep the nominations?
- Will Barbie get snubbed?
- And how in the world did America Ferrera get nominated?
Good luck to all the nominees, especially Past Live...
In this episode of 15 | A Film Review Podcast, Luke Oddie and Dan Wade review two of the most eagerly anticipated films of 2023.
To start, the pair get stuck into Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon. Set in 1920s Oklahoma, it focuses on a series of murders of Osage members after oil was discovered on tribal land. The epic Western starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro and Lily Gladstone has received rav...

"Is anyone still there?"
Well, if you are, here's a new episode of the award-winning (technically, we haven't won any awards... yet) 15.
True to their grasp of timing, Luke Oddie and Dan Wade are finally reviewing the biggest two films of the summer!
They kick it off with Luke's front runner for the 'Film of the Year', Oppenheimer...
Well, they finally got around to it. Ever since starting the podcast, Luke and Dan have promised to do a Pixar episode... hopefully this doesn't disappoint.
Join Luke and Dan as they debate the merits of original Pixar films (so no sequels allowed, I'm afraid), from Toy Story to Ratatouille. Hear their thoughts on the cinematography of Coco, the perfect double act in Monsters Inc., Up's opening montage, Ins...
It's that time of year again... time to be let down by the Academy Awards!
Dan (shambolically) reads out this year's nominees and the pair react live to all the surprises and snubs.

Luke and Dan review: with this retina-burning, high-octane, all-out action "drama", it's comforting to see the Russo brothers targeting subtly following the Avengers; a poorly-titled film with a distinct lack of flammable sommeliers; and yet another Danish animated documentary surrounding an Afghan homosexual absconding to Scandinavia.

Luke and Dan review: the trollop Poseidon brings home from a night out; an audacious attempt by the 60 Minute Makeover crew to renovate Prince Andrew's Royal Lodge; and how Javier Bardem daringly leaps out of his Spanish comfort zone to play a Cuban.

Luke and Dan review: a tone-shifting sequel to E.T.; a partisan chant appealing against Mr Fawkes' incarceration; and a quasi-live action film that features more 2D than a swinging party.

Luke and Dan review: Tom Hardy's attempt to show his range by playing a pair of twins; Laura Thyme packing in sleuthing to pursue turnips full-time; and a prime example of how hyperinflation has ravaged the honest work of the black market infant-selling industry.

Luke and Dan review: Katherine Ryan performing stand-up on an African river; something so forgettable I can't be bothered sweating over an alternative title; and a film which is to face-transplants, what Jojo Rabbit is to Nazis.

Luke and Dan review: the colourisation of Luke's face when he hears Americans attempt to pronounce niche; a spin-off the world needed, in which an addiction-driven Cookie Monster roams the dingy underbelly of Sesame Street for a starter-bag of Marylands; and the reason why, at the age of 59, Ralph Fiennes inexplicably has a six-pack.
