Popcorn Podcast

Popcorn Podcast activates beast mode to review Idris Elba's new movie, Beast. The man vs animal action follows a father and his two teenage daughters who find themselves being hunted by a massive rogue lion hell-bent on proving the Savannah has but one apex predator. Dr Nate Samuels (Elba) must protect his own pride from the jaws of nature or die trying.

Plus, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling re-team for a 1960s heist; the Ferris Bueller's Day Off spin-off in the works; Disney+ Day promises big releases; and more DCEU delays surface. We hope you enjoy this jam-packed episode of Popcorn Podcast with Leigh and Tim.

BEAST MOVIE REVIEW

Tim: This film is very violent. It's very gory and at times quite confronting, so if you are—

Leigh: Except the climax wasn't bloody or gory.

Tim: Oh, no, I thought that was incredibly gory and bloody.

Leigh: Okay...

Tim: Did we watch the same climax? I found that rough! I found that within the same cinema echo chamber of uncomfortable viewing as The Revenant and The Passion of the Christ.

Leigh: Wow!

Tim: It was f*cking full on!

Leigh: Yeah, it didn't land with me like that.

Tim: You're a hard-arse! I'm impressed. I had to look away at times, to be perfectly honest.

Leigh: Oh, really? No.

Tim: But I'm a sensitive soul.
