  • Defending Denise Richards’ performance in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH
    Nov 12 2024

    Can we be defending Denise Richards’ performance in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH?

    Denise Richard’s performance has garnered a very wide range of opinions. There are some people who loved her in the role of Dr. Christmas Jones. Others have problems with her casting and her performance.

    So, Dan and Tom decode her performance in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH and look at what worked and what didn’t.

    Some of the areas we examine include:

      • Her character’s complexity

      • Was she a believable nuclear physicist?

      • Was she the right age for the role?

      • Did the script and direction work for her role?

      • Was her character fully developed?

      • What is the correct pronunciation of “nuclear”

      • Did her previous movie and TV roles hinder the public’s acceptance of her in TWINE?

      • How did she do in her action sequences?

      • What did Denise Richards think of the role of Christmas Jones?

      • And more…

    Tell us what you think: How were we at defending Denise Richards' performance in THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH.

    So, take a listen and let us know what you think. What are your thoughts on Richards’ performance in TWINE? Do you agree with Dan and Tom?

  • CANARY BLACK Decoded!
    Nov 5 2024

    Amazon recently released the spy movie CANARY BLACK. This movie stars Kate Beckinsale, Rupert Friend, and Ray Stevenson. Is it worth a watch?

    Join Dan and Tom as they decode CANARY BLACK. It carries an “R” rating here in the U.S., and we think it is earned with the quantity of violence. Dan and Tom disagree with the impact of this violence.

    For those of you who want to find out what earlier movies may have influenced scenes in this movie, we drill into these scenes.

    As usual, there are some strong positives as well as some negatives to this movie.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • A high-level look at the plot without giving too much away
    • The violence
    • The actors and their characters
    • How earlier spy movies influenced CANARY BLACK
    • The company name of the main character’s cover company
    • The sets
    • A watch
    • A bottle of wine
    • The use of a Double Pursuit
    • And more ….

    There is a lot to decode, so take a listen to find out why this movie gets mixed reviews and what we think.

    Tell us what you think about our decoding of CANARY BLACK

    So, take a listen and let us know what you think. Have you seen CANARY BLACK? If so, what did you think of it? If not, did we give you enough information to help you decide if you want to watch it?

TND decoding

Tom, Dan, Mike, another great decoded pre title sequence.

I'd forgotten the Hong Kong angle until you guys reminded me. I'm glad they dropped that as this manipulative media mogul storyline is more timeless.

This may have been a writing nightmare with the numerous rewrites, but it is my favourite Brosnan. Possibly because of the underhand media and Jonathan Pryce's OTT delivery. Having watched it on the Big Screen earlier this year, I had a massive grin for days afterwards.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
