Episode 159 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Movies of any genre, any year and any quality, discussed by Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell. You folks know the drill.
After the previous episode's 80s Arnie action, it's time to come right up to date with the Prime streaming offering YOU'RE CORDIALLY INVITED, starring Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell as two people who book the same venue for the wedding weekends of her sister and his daughter respectively and, as is the case in this type of thing, shenanigans ensue.
Your hosts get to grips with a film that doesn't seem entirely sure of what it wants to be and makes some questionable decisions in the name of adding a little edginess. In terms of music, Darren is keen to get involved in a karaoke duet with Reese but has thoughts about the film's score. Meanwhile, Hayley muses about the mean-spiritedness of various set pieces, including a bizarre interlude involving an alligator. Is it another romcom destined to get a thumbs down from HDMP HQ?
Someone who will always be cordially invited to our HD shindigs is Mitch Bain, who is the creative force responsible for writing and performing the music you hear on the podcast. He's on Instagram if you look for "evertheoptimitch".
