About the show

Join the Criticless crew on a journey of free thought as they develop a refreshing film criticism counter-culture where its okay to disagree with out-of-touch film critics.

The divide between movie critics and general audiences seems to grow more every day and its time someone put it under a microscope. Are critics too politically driven, too close to the industry, or just too disconnected to relate? Maybe it’s all of the above and then some, and they are determined to find out!

Get controversial and dissect tomato scores while uplifting our Criticless users week to week! Join your host and Criticless CEO Blaine Andrews and fellow movie lovers Matt Verlaque, Chris Cowles, and assorted miscreants as they hypocritically review the latest in film and TV while attempting to predict, discuss, & critique the overall critical response.

    Director Edgar Wright is back with his new film Last Night in Soho and he made sure to mix things up quite a bit from the films we have come to love him for the most. This thriller/ horror/drama flick is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat after Wright takes his time introducing you to his vison of London of the 60's and today. The big question here is if the critics and audiences all think this new tonal change suits Wright's style?

    It's finally time to say goodbye to Daniel Craig's James Bond, the longest running Bond in film history, and we really need to ask ourselves a few questions... like, did we really need this movie? Is this incarnation of Bond even Bond? and did this movie actually get postponed so long due to extremely controversial subject matter and obvious predictive programing? We discuss it all this week on the Aroused pod. Also, is everyone just plain wrong about this movie?

    Marvel Studios is back once again but this time we get a new future Avenger for the first time in quite a while! Even more exciting is the fact that Marvel is going with Shang-Chi a more unknow hero from their catalogue.

All jokes aside, Ryan's new film Free Guy seems to be all the buzz just like it's very relevant undertones of simulation theory and AI. Come have a chat with us this week about everything Free Guy and then some with a slew of news and new streaming shows!

    DC goes back for a second try with another Suicide Squad movie after their first attempt from 5 years ago went over like a wet fart. The questions this week are, was this franchise worth another stab at it and also did James Gunn deserve for DC to swoop in and save his career after Disney/Marvel gave him the boot?

    A24 is known for their shockingly strange movies and their new film The Green Night seems to fit into the more approachable side of their films but the question is, was marketing it to the more general audience as a medieval action adventure the smart move for them?
