The Directors Cut Vs. The Grey and Albert Nobbs

admin — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:00:53 +0000

I WILL EAT YOUR FACE LIAM!

This week Kristin and Dan review "The Grey" and "Albert Nobbs" while Russell was forced to see (or "seen" if you're from Arkansas) One for the Money. He also gives us a quick update on "Man on a Ledge". We also speak with Sean Gandert about a fantastic survival documentary. In the studio we have special guest Tom Szymanski, as part of our "How to Make a Movie" series, about the writing process. Plus, we play the game "Coming Up or Made it Up" for the chance to win Blu-rays. Our top ten list this week is Top Ten Gender Bender Movies, I also think we did this already.

"The Grey" is a survival drama starring Liam Neeson. As roughnecks are on their way home after an extended work shift their airplane loses control and crashes. Surviving the crash was only half the problem as giant grey wolves want to have them for lunch. Do the remaining survivors make it back home? Or is this highly predictable plot and over use of pretentious imagery force us to no-longer care? Well find out on this episode of "The Directors Cut!"

The Directors Cut Vs. Underworld Awakening and Red Tails

admin — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:00:30 +0000

This week on The Directors Cut Radio Show we broadcast LIVE from KIVA 1550 AM studios for the very first time. But since it's our first week on KIVA 1550 AM we have decided to bring back some old games. We also review Underworld: Awakening and Red Tails. Our top ten list this week is top ten feuds. Plus we play Coming Up or Made it Up.
In Underworld: Awakening, when the human race has gotten wise about the existence of Vampires and Lycans they have decided to eradicate the non humans. Since this is part 4 of the Underworld series, fans know what to expect. Kate Beckinsale in very tight clothing. Which is a total score!

The Directors Cut vs. Young Adult and New Years Eve

admin — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 03:47:19 +0000

This week The Directors Cut reviews Young Adult, and count down the Top Ten Movies about Babysitters. Young Adult is the new movie written by Diablo Cody, an attempt to win another Academy Award since her debut with Juno. Young Adult stars Charlize Theron who plays a writer for young adult novels, and shortly after her divorce she finds out her high school boyfriend just had a baby. This jealousy of her new ex-boyfriends new baby, motivates her to go back to her high school town in hopes to win him back. Fortunately for Diablo Cody she had either the worst high school experience, or the best, since she understands the high school dynamic better than anyone else. Also, she really needs to get over her past, if it was as bad as I guess it was. Our top ten list was inspired by the new Jonah Hill movie called "The Sitter." And no, he's no Elizabeth Shue.

The Directors Cut Vs. Shame!

admin — Sat, 03 Dec 2011 19:47:49 +0000

So the Academy Awards are approaching near and so are the Critics Choice Awards. As some of you know, I (Dan) actually vote for the Critics Choice Awards, and that means studios are begging for my attention. This is the time of year I get inundated with screeners. This week we take a peek at "Shame" the story of Michael Fassbender with a sexual addiction. Carey Mulligan also is in this film as his twisted sister looking for a place to stay, and has nobody to turn to, except for her brother. There is a ton of full frontal nudity in this film, including Carey Mulligan! But, this movie has a ton of slow moments trying to show character, but it has no real entertainment value. I know I really don't like to give my reviews away here in the blog, but if you want to see a ton of nude people, having sex, dealing with some underlying depression or sexual addiction. JUST WATCH PORN, at least those people look like they're having a good time, and they're not moping around and having some internal anguish on screen. But this show has some fantastic moments, so please check it out and download it below!

TDCRS vs The Muppets, Coriolanus, and Midnight in Paris

admin — Sun, 27 Nov 2011 01:25:12 +0000

Happy Thanksgiving weekend to everyone! This week we review "The Muppets," "Coriolanus," "Midnight in Paris," and much more! Also we talk about the struggles of watching a movie when projector bulb dies... repeatedly. The Muppets is a pretty basic story line, they need to do another show to save their studios. First task is to bring everyone back together. Is this movie as good as any of the previous Muppet movies? We'll let you know right here on The Directors Cut!

TDCRS vs The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1

admin — Sun, 20 Nov 2011 01:01:00 +0000

This week we check out one of the most popular movies of 2011 The Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part 1. If you haven't seen any of the previous Twilight movies, we'll get you up to speed, they're extremely stupid. Before we subject ourselves to another crappy movie, we're gonna let you in on a little secret. You do get to see Bella's nipple. Yes, you actually see Kristin Stewart's nipple in this movie. But, check out the show, we'll let you know whether you should see Breaking Dawn 1 or not.

Immortals and The Directors Cut

admin — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 00:59:09 +0000

This week The Directors Cut takes on the Immortals. We learned that the Immortals is not a sequel to 300. So please, do not attempt to believe the advertising. It takes place when King Herod is trying to destroy all of humanity by releasing the Immortals from their godforsaken cell and it's up to Theseus to save the day. That's pretty much the story line. There's a couple of battles here and there and Frito Pinto get's mostly naked and claims to be a virgin. Check out the show, to see if you should go!

A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas vs. The Directors Cut

admin — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 00:05:19 +0000

This week on The Directors Cut Radio program we check out the latest installment of the Harold & Kumar saga. In this edition, Harold has to keep his father-in-law happy and decorate the family Christmas tree by 2am. Unfortunately Kumar has a hand at lighting it on fire. Together they must join forces and find a new tree and decorate it before Danny Trejo kicks his ass.

TDCRS vs In Time and Puss in Boots

admin — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 00:30:54 +0000

This week on The Directors Cut we review the movie "In Time" a new action thriller starring Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried. Also, we send our very own small town Arkansasian Russell Pinkston to review "Puss in Boots."

"In Time" takes place in a futuristic world where people stop aging at the year 25 and their time clocks that are embedded in their arm start to count down for only another year left to live. This is where we see issues when the rich have more time than the poor and there is a potential "Occupation Time Share." Amanda Seyfried is one of the sexiest actresses in Hollywood but unfortunately, the bad makeup job of this movie makes her skin horrible and her face difficult to look at. Also we uncover this movie has the worlds deadliest drinking game! Listen to whether you should see "In Time" in theaters, wait til DVD or just completely forget about it.

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME OR IT MAY RESULT IN PHYSICAL INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.

The "In Time Drinking Game" has only one rule: Drink every time somebody says the word "Time."

Also on the show, we count down the top ten movies about "writers" and find ourselves getting slightly annoyed by Brian Gutierrez (the news guy).

DCRS vs The Three Musketeers and Paranormal Activity 3

admin — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 20:11:12 +0000

This week we review The Three Musketeers and Paranormal Activity 3. Plus we have the clever idea of counting down our top 10 movies with the number 3 in the title. The Three Musketeers is the classic story with one catch, it seems like we're focusing a little too much on the pretty boy D'Artagnan character. "Where are The Musketeers?" Was a question I kept asking myself. I really wanted to see much more from the musketeers they seemed so badass. But got me thinking, since I didn't get to see much of The Musketeers they provided I made my own. I would absolutely want to see a really bad Disney version of the same movie staring former Mouseketeers made up of Justin, Britney and Christina with Ryan Gosling as D'Artagnan. Wouldn't that be awesome?! I know you'd go see that? Hell we can throw in Bieber as King Louis and Selena Gomez as Queen Anne! I bet this movie would be one of the greatest movies of all time! This would make "The Room" look like a cheap piece of crap! I digress. This week we also have Russell Pinkston of Harrison, Arkansas review Paranormal Activity 3 for us. We were quite surprised about what he said. Find out all of our reviews and much more right here on The Directors Cut, The Guys' Show About Movies!
