Ep30 | BLINK TWICE & PULP FICTION
THE REBRAND IS HERE! Look at that new cover art *wolf whistle* "Reviews, impressions and laughs"… Well, I think we live up to that this episode. With the 30th anniversary of the legend of cinema,PULP FICTION, being back on big screens, Adam caught it for[…]
Episode 29 – ALIEN: ROMULUS
In space, no one can hear you scream. Thankfully, in Spotify, everyone can listen to Movie On Up's film chat! This week, Alfie reviews the popular Alien: Romulus while Adam watches Alien (1979) and Aliens (1986) for the first time ever. The cancellation of The[…]
Episode 28 – BORDERLANDS, TRAP & IT ENDS WITH US
Two is company, three’s a crowd… you’re telling me! Our Zoom calls bandwidth could hardly handle the three of us lads (so apologies for the glitchy mics). Nonetheless we’re here with episode 28. Friend of the show Josh Brooker has us covered with an absolutely[…]
Episode 27 – DVD Nostalgia and Adam’s Mum
In this episode, the boys review Kneecap – a Belfast-based musical biopic – and House of the Dragon Season 2. Why have so many of the recent TV series let us down though? How can streaming services overcome this rut they seem to be in?[…]
Episode 26 – DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE SPOILER REVIEW plus New MCU Plans!
The production schedule had gone out the window and Adam and Alfie were nigh on melting in the sweltering studio. However, they powered through and chatted about the new Marvel announcements from San Diego Comic-Con (RDJr is cast as who??) before delving into Deadpool &[…]
Episode 25 – TWISTERS, THE BEAR SEASON 3 and DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE
EPISODE 25 is finally here! After a week of editing mishaps, moving house, dodgy computers and a corrupted (and possibly haunted) Michael Caine audio file, episode 25 has finally arrived. Adam caught the sequel 28 years too late Twisters. Alfie stayed home and binged The[…]
BONUS – THE ACOLYTE is a MESS!
After watching the finale of The Acolyte, Adam and Alfie gathered on Wednesday morning to express their thoughts and feelings towards the most divisive Star Wars project since The Last Jedi. Although initially (and surprisingly) impressed, the pair soon unpacked the show's nuances and descended[…]
Episode 24 – LONG LEGS, DESPICABLE ME 4 and FLY ME TO THE MOON
Who has long legs? Gru. Who flew to the moon? Gru. Who stars in Despicable Me 4? Gru. It's poetic, really. This week, the Movie On Up boys have a lot to talk about including cancelled flights, Ray Romano and that glorious Gladiator II trailer![…]
Episode 23 – KINDS OF KINDNESS, A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE & THE BIKERIDERS
Just like A Quiet Place, aliens abruptly swept in and disrupted this week’s recording of Movie On Up (aka Adam’s Dad turned up and was waiting for him in the lay-by). BUT up until that point the boys were on full form in the studio.[…]
Episode 22 – Spain, Pain and THE ACOLYTE Again
With Adam sunburnt to a crisp in Spain and Alfie bedridden with a broken foot, the Movie On Up team is worse for wear. Nevertheless, undeterred from delivering top-notch film discussions, they use Zoom for this week's catch-up. Please rate the show and share it[…]
Episode 21 – INSIDE OUT 2, THE LORD OF THE RINGS and HOUSE OF THE DRAGON
You'll be sure to feel joy after listening to another episode of Movie On Up. This week, there's reviews for Inside Out 2 and the Season 2 premiere of House of the Dragon. The boys also strapped themselves in for a Lord of the Rings[…]
Episode 20 – HIT MAN, JIM HENSON IDEA MAN & LEGO PHARRELL WILLIAMS?
"Aunt Lucy's on an adventure my a**" Wild one this week… with a lack of films releasing, this week the boys talk about the new Netflix film Hit Man starring Glen Powell, the new Disney+ documentary: Jim Henson Idea Man, and Adam caught a rerelease[…]
Episode 19 – BRIAN BUTTERFIELD, THE ACOLYTE & YOUNG WOMAN AND THE SEA
After a rock 'n' roll weekend, Adam and Alfie have plenty to discuss – notably Brian Butterfield's Call of Now business seminar. Miraculously, the chairman of the board 'himself' steps in for Michael Caine this week. The Acolyte, a new Star Wars show, premiered on[…]
Episode 18 – CHALLENGERS, THE FALL GUY & KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES
If Movie On Up had a trailer it would be just like those opening shots from Challengers… sweaty, wet and sexy. Anyway, this week the boys talk one great film, one good film and one meh film, but you'll have to listen to find out[…]
BONUS – SRA Con 2024, BABY REINDEER, SPEED & DREAM SCENARIO
Adam & Alfie are busy with their dissertations and assignments so in place of a full episode, enjoy this snack-sized instalment of film discussion! Just in case you were still feeling shortchanged, here’s a Haiku from ChatGPT: ‘In the podcast booth, Quick recording, short and[…]
Episode 17 – CIVIL WAR and SCOOP
Somehow two film fanatic journalism students have produced an unplanned Journalism Special of Movie On Up. Amidst the dissertation slog, Adam Barlow watched Adam Garland's hugely mismarketed Civil War and Alfie Walker watched Netflix's dramatisation of the 2019 Prince Andrew Newsnight interview. In need of[…]
Episode 16 – KUNG FU PANDA 4, MONKEY MAN, GODZILLA X KONG, MOTHERS’ INSTINCT and SEIZE THEM!
What a month for the silver screen! With films coming out left, right and centre, the boys couldn't catch all of them. So this week on the podcast, the boys have help from avid listeners Josh and Lenny. Adam really amps up the James Acaster[…]

Episode 14 – GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE
If there's something strange in your neighbourhood, who you gonna call? Well, certainly not Adam because he's scared of ghosts. This week the boys dive into one of their favourite 80s franchises, Ghostbusters, with a rewatch of the 1984 and '89 classics, the highly praised[…]
Episode 13 – FIGHT CLUB’s 25th Anniversary and Film Blind Spots
Every film fan has a never-ending watchlist and Adam & Alfie are no exceptions, this week they talk about the biggest films that they (criminally) haven't ever seen. Fight Club turns 25 years old this year so Adam checks that one off his list. The[…]
