[Double Feature] Mississippi Grind

9/30/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Before I start onto today’s post, I’m going to wander off a bit (as I typically do). Right before we move onto our special Halloween month full of horrors, we are doing a movie that has some of its own little...
Shannon: Mississippi Grind follows two guys who obviously have a gambling problem. They just keep gambling, and gambling, and gambling... it's like the never ending movie. First off, I don't ...

[Double Feature] Miss You Already

9/28/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Cancer is one of those things that is almost universal. Just about everyone has lost someone to cancer, or at the very least, had them sickened before beating it. Therefore, it’s only natural that we begin...
Shannon: This movie is so extremely sad. If you want to cry, this one is for you. It's just sad moment, after sad moment, after sad moment. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it's nice watching...

[Double Feature] Money Monster

9/26/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Not too long ago, we wrote a bit about The Big Short which focused on the housing crisis, and how the greed of Wall Street basically caused it to happen. From the trailer, I was not expecting a movie that was...
Shannon: Money Monster is about a TV star who gives advice about investments in the stock market, who is faced with a major problem while live on television... a man who is very angry...

[Double Feature] Concussion

9/23/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: I don’t think it’s any secret that movies are consistently dumbed down. I’ve stated once or twice about my despise for the fact that movies now have everything connected and spelled...
Shannon: Concussion tells us the true story of  forensic pathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu (Will Smith) who is working as a coroner in Pittsburg, PA. He has somewhat of a strange approach when...

[Double Feature] How to Be Single

9/21/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: I often start off posts discussing things that I thought a movie would be like, or discussing something personal before transitioning to the actual film. Here, I’ll do none of that. I will tell you up front...
Shannon: How to Be Single is based on the book of the same title. The movie stars Dakota Johnson and Rebel Wilson and follows the too through their newfound friendship. Dakota's character...

[Double Feature] Green Room

9/19/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: It’s a shame that we lose so many young actors. The events surrounding Yelchin’s death were rather confusing, and everyone seemed to just accept that a terrible thing had...
Shannon: I'm going to turn the tables on you here for this review of the movie Green Room. The difference from my other reviews is the fact that I loved the story itself, but everything...

[Double Feature] The Guardian

9/16/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: A tale as old as time – no not that one. It’s the tale of an older veteran of something training and passing on his love, knowledge, and respect to a younger, hot-headed, phenom...
Shannon: I am not the biggest fan of The Guardian. I wasn't the first time I watched it, and my original opinions have not changed after the second time. This movie follows young men who...

[Double Feature] How I Live Now

9/14/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: How I Live Now is a zombie movie, minus the zombies. That’s essentially what I felt when watching it. You have an apocalyptic society, where people are seeking refuge. People...
Shannon: Set in the countryside of England just outside of London an American girl, Daisy (Saoirse Ronan), is sent by her father to stay with her cousins for the summer. She’s reluctant about the trip and...

[Double Feature] Byzantium

9/12/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Byzantium is a vampire movie that is made by the director of Interview with a Vampire. Whereas that was a pretty good movie, this movie was pretty dull, despite the fact that the lead actress was pretty...
Shannon: Starring Saoirse Ronan (Eleanor) and Gemma Arterton (Clara), Byzantium​follows two vampires who are constantly on the run from the leaders of the vampires. This movie is extremely...

[Double Feature] The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2

9/9/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Full disclosure: this was the last of the Hunger Games movies, and coincidentally, it was the only one that I hadn’t seen before watching them for this series of posts. After the dull, drabfest...
Shannon: Compared to all the other movies in this saga, Mockingjay Part 2 is definitely the most dark. After almost being killed, Katniss begins her struggle with Peeta and lets her vengeful...

[Double Feature] The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1

9/8/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Ah Hollywood. You take a wonderful series like LOTR (three books, three movies) and defame its legacy by making a Hobbit series (a one book, three movies). You stretch the final Harry Potter...
Shannon: The third movie The Hunger Games series takes place in District 13 - the forgotten district that once was destroyed by the Capitol for their uprising-worthy opinions and personalities...

[Double Feature] The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

9/7/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: ​Welcome to Day Two of Hunger Games Week! I’m your host David Flickerman! HAHA. Just kidding (though I spend time in my head pretending I’m Stanley Tucci’s character)....
Shannon: Catching Fire is the second movie of The Hunger Games saga. Katniss and Peeta have returned home from their time in the games, and are not coping well. Memories turned...

[Double Feature] The Hunger Games

David: Welcome to Hunger Games week here at DoubleFeaturePreachers (and may the odds be ever in your favor). This week we are going to run a blitz of posts going through the entire...
Shannon: The Hunger Games is based on a book of the same title and stars Jennifer Lawrence. In a dystopic country, Panam, there are two teenagers chosen from each district to fight to the...

[Double Feature] Before Midnight

9/2/2016

 
by David
by Shannon
David: Real life is hard. If there’s anything you learn as you grow up, that’s one of the main things. However, we tend to gloss over this as a society. It’s like no one truly wants to talk about...
Shannon: I don't think I have another thing to say about this series... Before Midnight is nine years after the second and Jesse and Celine are in Greece with their children. Guess he missed that...
