MAN ON FILM: SAVAGE FILM REVIEW

MAN ON FILM: READY OR NOT 2

Welcome, welcome, WELCOME to the best show in the world — where it’s always raining men — this is MAN ON FILM with your host Mr. Excellence… and this week?

Oh yeah…

READY OR NOT 2 is back — and baby… we got THOUGHTS.

Let’s start here:

This is a solid 70%… maybe 75% if you feeling generous.

Now don’t get it twisted — we were entertained
…but did it go HARDER than the first one?

…we gotta talk about it.

We’re diving into:

• A sequel that should’ve gone bigger… but kinda stayed in the same house
• Samara Weaving still fighting for her LIFE (and making choices we side-eye HEAVY )
• Sarah Michelle Gellar pulling up like she about to activate Buffy mode… and then NOT doing it
• And Elijah Wood sliding in with that “evil lawyer / devil energy” like… sir… how did YOU even get here??

And listen…

We gotta address the REAL issues:

Why is nobody double-tapping ANYBODY??
Why are we making survival decisions like we WANT to die??
And WHY… after everything… are we STILL wearing the same bloody dress???

I’m talking:

This movie had moments where we were like:

“OH THIS ABOUT TO GO CRAZY—”

…and then…

“…wait… that’s it?”

BUT — we’ll give credit where it’s due:

And yes… there’s just enough chaos to keep you watching

Final verdict:

when you say “Part 2”…

IS IT WHAT WE WERE EXPECTING:
Bigger?
Wilder?
MORE unhinged energy?!

WE BREAK IT ALL DOWN:

• What worked (and what absolutely did NOT)
• The plot holes you can drive a truck through
• The characters we loved… and the ones we were ready to eliminate ourselves
• And the moment that had us like:
“WHO EVEN ARE YOU??”

Bottom line:

If you liked the first one?
You’ll rock with it.

If you wanted something bigger and crazier?

…DID PART2 DELIVER?!?

MAN ON FILM: PROJECT HAIL MARY

Welcome, welcome, WELCOME to the best show in the world — where it’s always raining MEN — This is MAN ON FILM with your host, Mr. Xcellence, & special guest host Mr. Caravaggio bringing you laughs, hot takes, and elite-level movie talk you didn’t know you needed.

This week? We’re blasting off into PROJECT HAIL MARY — starring the one and only Ryan Gosling, aka Ken, aka Notebook King, aka “carry-the-whole-movie-on-my-back” himself.

Let me say this CLEARLY:
This is a 90% GO SEE IT NOW type of film.

We’re talking:

Big sci-fi ideas
Unexpected heart
Alien friendships that hit harder than your last relationship
And yes… a rock that might steal the entire damn movie

This isn’t your typical “turn-your-brain-off” space flick. Nah — this one’s got:
Humor
Emotion
Just enough “wait… what??” moments to keep you arguing with your friends after

And of course… we break it ALL down:

Is Ryan Gosling officially in his decade of dominance?
Is Rocky (yeah… THAT Rocky ) the next Grogu-level icon?
And why are we lowkey questioning some of the science while still loving every second of it?

We laugh. We debate. We nitpick. We give you the REAL.

Because that’s what we do.

Bottom line:
If you like smart movies, fun movies, emotional movies — or just want something that doesn’t feel recycled — this is your ticket.

And if you don’t go see it?

…we got questions

NEW EPISODE – MAN ON FILM
UNDERTONE vs MAN ON FILM

What happens when a horror movie about a podcast… forgets how podcasts work and what makes a movie interesting?

Yeah.....That’s Undertone. #MinimalistHorror

This week Andre Xcellence! steps into the booth ready for a creepy audio-horror experience… and instead walks out wondering if the movie owes him time, money, and emotional damages.

Directed and written by Ian Tuason, Undertone tries to build tension through mysterious audio recordings, creepy nursery rhymes, and a supernatural entity haunting a podcast investigation.

Unfortunately… it mostly feels like sitting through a bad podcast episode for 90 minutes.

And if you know Man on Film, you know we love horror — but when a movie markets itself like the next great audio nightmare and delivers three actors, two rooms, and a bunch of sound effects, we’re going to talk about it.

Highlights from the episode ....#ZERO

A horror movie about podcasts that somehow doesn’t understand podcasts

Creepy children’s songs played backwards… because apparently that’s still a thing

The film feeling like 90% listening to a podcast and 10% actual movie

Marketing that was scarier than the movie itself

Andre reading the IMDB reviews and realizing everyone else is just as mad

Directed & Written by:
Ian Tuason

Starring:
Anisha Krishnan
Adam DeMarco
Michelle Krusiec

MAN ON FILM Score:
1 out of 5 stars

Final Verdict:
The marketing was spooky.
The movie… not so much.

If you’re a hardcore horror completionist, maybe give it a look someday on streaming.

Otherwise?

You might have more fun just listening to our review.

NEW EPISODE DROP – MAN ON FILM

SLANTED vs MAN ON FILM

What happens when a girl decides the fastest way to fit in… is to become blonde, white, and “socially acceptable”?
Yeah. Slanted goes all the way there.

This week, Andre Xcellence! & Mr. Caravaggio break down one of the boldest, funniest, messiest, most conversation-starting movies of the year — a sharp satire about race, beauty, assimilation, high school politics, and just how far people will go to be crowned acceptable.

An Asian teen, tired of feeling invisible, signs up for an experimental procedure that literally transforms her into a blonde white girl — and from there the movie goes full chaos: prom queen ambition, identity crisis, racial satire, social climbing, creepy “ethnic enhancement” science, and one of the wildest fake commercials we’ve seen in a minute.

This movie is funny, uncomfortable, smart, savage, and absolutely not subtle.
And honestly? That’s what makes it hit.

Highlights from the episode

Olivia giving full Regina George energy and running the school like a tiny dictator

The “become white in 2 hours” science pitch being insane from jump

That disturbingly catchy “it’s good to be white” song living rent-free in the theater

A brutal satire on filters, beauty standards, race performance, and self-hate

One of the most thought-provoking endings we’ve had to argue about in a while

Starring:
Shirley Chen
McKenna Grace
Vivian Wu
Amelie Zilber
R. Sarathkumar

Written & Directed by Amy Wang

MAN ON FILM Score: 85%

Final Verdict:
Bold. Funny. Uncomfortable. Smart.
A conversation-starter with teeth.
Not for the overly fragile… but absolutely worth seeing.

If Mean Girls, The Substance, and identity politics had a weird, vicious little cinematic baby —
Slanted would be it.

NEW EPISODE DROP – MAN ON FILM

HOPPERS vs MAN ON FILM

Disney’s “Hoppers” hops into theaters with robot animals, insect politics, and a teenager trying to save the environment one beaver kingdom at a time.

This week on Man on Film, we jumped into Disney’s newest animated experiment — a movie where humans can “hop” into robotic animal bodies to communicate with wildlife. Naturally this leads to insect councils, ecosystem debates, and a surprising number of woodland creatures being very chill about the whole “someone might get eaten today” situation.

The story follows Mabel, a rebellious teen who uses experimental tech to connect with the animal world in order to stop developers from bulldozing the nature preserve her grandmother loved. Along the way we get beaver royalty, caterpillar villains, and a lot of Disney-style life lessons about nature, trust, and the circle of life.

But the big question remains…

Is Hoppers the next Toy Story or Lion King?
Or is it just a cute Disney movie you put on so the kids stay quiet while you take an important phone call?

Let’s just say… the Man on Film jury had opinions.

Voice cast includes:
Jon Hamm
Bobby Moynihan
Kathy Najimy
Dave Franco
Sam Richardson
Piper Curda

Highlights from the episode

A caterpillar villain that feels like the Disney version of Joffrey

Environmental messaging that hits you like a Pixar hammer

Talking animals calmly accepting the food chain like it’s a business meeting

Disney once again trying to sneak life lessons into a cartoon

A surprisingly stacked Hollywood voice cast

MAN ON FILM Score: 70%

Final Verdict:
Good animated movie for kids.
Cute, weird, and occasionally funny.

But if someone puts Hoppers on for date night…
you might want to reconsider the relationship.
