  • CTP 143: Gladiator II
    Nov 27 2024

    24 years after Best-Picture-Winning film Gladiator hit the screens, 86-year-old Ridley Scott returns to the film that won him a gold statue. Paul Mescal steps into the lead role, and the star-studded supporting cast includes Denzel Washington and Pedro Pascal. Did the gap in time cause Scott to lose the juice between films? Come back next week as we start our 2024 picks series with Conor's pick, The Fall Guy!

  • CTP 140: Vice
    Nov 5 2024

    On the eve of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, we here are looking back on to a film that (very briefly) covers the closest in American history, Vice focusing on former VP Dick Cheney. Adam McKay's controversial film still secured eight Oscar nominations including Best Picture. Did the satirical portrayal of Cheney and the Bush Administration work for us? Come back next week for our review of Here, the new film from Forrest Gump trio Robert Zemeckis, Tom Hanks, and Robin Wright!
