Episodes
"Movies are too long these days." How often do you hear that sentence, and is it really true? In this bonus episode, Tom and Art take a deep dive into all the lengthy films they've loved, some of the short ones for comparison, and a few they've really hated. Plus, recent recommendations and a bit of Oscar chat. It's a looong episode (appropriately enough).
In Episode 31 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit Patriot Games, Harrison Ford's early Nineties attempt to escape the shadow of Indiana Jones and Star Wars. Does he succeed, or does he fall flat?
What happens when singers or pop stars try their hand at acting? That’s what we’re exploring in this special one-off episode, from the sublime to the totally ridiculous.
In the twenty-second bonus episode (and the final one of this series), we’re reviewing all 10 films that we’ve covered in Season 3. So which is the best and the worst? And which one surprised us the most?
In Episode 30 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit A Perfect World, Clint Eastwood’s forgotten drama from 1993. So is the second Kevin Costner movie we’ve done any better than the first?
In the twenty-first bonus episode, we explore the thrilling, innovative and sometimes fraudulent world of movie trailers. Which are the best or most memorable? And which are the most misleading?
In Episode 29 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne put on their stetsons and ride out to greet Young Guns II. But is it the fastest gun in the West or the worst film in the world?
In the twentieth bonus episode, we eagerly dive into the back catalogue of British legend Michael Caine – finding much to love and loathe in the process.
In Episode 28 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit a childhood favourite: Joel Schumacher’s Batman Forever. Does this bat soar across the sky, or is it flapping about in the dark?
In the nineteenth bonus episode, we cast a wary eye over Nicholas Cage’s movie career (more films than you would ever believe). Is is thumbs up or thumbs down for the gurning goon?
In Episode 27 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne check out Tarantino’s oft-overlooked Jackie Brown. In terms of sheer quality, is it either James Brown or Roy Chubby Brown?
Love is in the air for this eighteenth bonus episode, in which Art and Tom explore those movies that provoke the most amorous thoughts. They also flag up some recent movie recommendations.
In Episode 26 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne dissect the David Cronenberg classic The Fly. Does it take flight, or should it be swatted away?
In the seventeenth bonus episode, Art and Tom flag up those films that critics loved but audiences have (mostly) forgotten about. Plus, they dive into your Christmas feedback and recommend some recent movies.
In Episode 25 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit Ang Lee’s acclaimed ensemble drama The Ice Storm. Did it chill the blood in our veins, or did it leave us rather cold?
In the sixteenth bonus episode, Art and Tom look back at a Christmas favourite from the 1980s (unveiled on the show), while pondering your feedback and other seasonal cinematic fare.
In Episode 24 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit the Nicole Kidman back comedy To Die For. Is it a delicious, subversive treat, or rather undernourished?
In the fifteenth bonus episode, Art and Tom explore those films that scared them to death (regardless of quality). Plus, they dive into your listener feedback.
In Episode 23 of Movies in the Mirror, cousins and friends Tom and Arthur Browne revisit the Sylvester Stallone drama Cop Land. An intriguing change of direction for the Italian Stallion, or a road to nowhere?
In the fourteenth bonus episode, Art and Tom tackle the thorny subject of the remake, and select a few movies that simply didn’t require a makeover—plus a few that did.
