The Matt and Mark Movie Show
Movie reviews, industry talk, and film discussion by two grumpy old men who should know better.
Episodes
This is one of them FREAKY TALES.
The directing team behind Captain Marvel (yep) returns from director jail with a retro anthology movie called FREAKY TALES, and since Matt is only human and likes cool poster art, he dove at the chance to review this little oddity of a movie.
What do Pedro Pascal, an axe, green lightning, Blade, and the rapper Too Short have in common? We don't know. We're not sure this movie knows either. But he...

Holy crap, how long's it been?!
The Matt and Mark Movie Show returns from a long pod break to watch Jason Statham punch, kick, and kill stuff. Yes, we're reviewing A WORKING MAN, a movie you had no idea was written by Sylvester Stallone. Believe it.
Along the way, we question some of the movie's logic, try to understand Statham's living situation, and play predictions about whether or not we actually liked this movie. Where does ...

Strap in for wild Retro Reviews of ALTERED STATES from 1980 and SURF NINJAS from 1993. We even squeeze in some MADAME WEB talk. Why? Why the hell not.

Why is the Invisible Man such a jerk in all his movies? How many techs did it take to animate Kevin Bacon's invisible dong? And what does this movie have to do with why Matt hates Olive Garden?
We discuss all of this and more in this week's HOLLOW MAN episode -- our second entry into our unofficial Invisible Man movie miniseries. You know we love Paul Verhoeven so we were stoked to review another one of his movies on the pod. We d...

It's the movie that nearly ended John Carpenter's career!
Come back with us to 1992, as we discuss Memoirs of an Invisible Man, the monster movie flop that starred one of Hollywood's most legendary jerks, Chevy Chase.

BILLY ZANE-UARY goes out with a BANG, as we review one of the few action-packed films in Billy Zane's filmography… SNIPER.

If you want to get right to the main Sniper review, scrub ahead to 13:59 … but just know, you’ll miss some important stuff ab...

"FOR THOSE WHO CAME IN LATE..."
Welcome to our first ever themed month... BILLY ZANE-UARY! A mini-series celebration of one of our best and BALDEST actors.
And to kick off this Zane-y stunt, we’re reviewing one of Billy's classic roles as the ghost who walks... AKA... THE PHANTOM. Did Black Panther borrow a ton from this movie and just not tell anyone? We think so. We also think it has some not-so-nice things to say about the Ind...

America needs to heal. So we've decided to review something that makes everyone happy... SHOWGIRLS.
Come back with us to 1995, when the director of Robocop hung up his sci-fi spurs and decided to head west for a movie loaded up with boobs instead of bullets! That's right, this week we dive into SHOWGIRLS, and debate Elizabeth Berkley's "choices," fear for Kyle MacLachlan's safety during an intense pool scene, and wonder whether or...
