Nobody loves a Christmas movie more than the Bad Dads. In fact we've gone Christmas crazy this week. First up for your listening pleasure we have our belated review of the Bill Murray Xmas classic, Scrooged. Roger Ebert said this was the worst film adaptation of A Christmas Carol he had ever seen. Was he off the mark with that description? You'll have to listen to us witter on to find out... We love interacting with our listeners, so please get in touch with us - @dads_film, on Facebook or vi...

As I get older I tend to re-watch movies less than I used to; perhaps it's because as I have matured I understand the art form better and have more life experience to draw on to deconstruct cinema. Or maybe it's because as I get older and the spectre of death draws ever closer I understand that I have limited time left to enjoy new experiences. And with that cheery thought in mind let us propel you towards our Top 5 movies you wish you hadn't rewatched. Maybe we didn't enjoy a second viewing bec...

Despite the near-constant stream of adaptations of books made into movies, “the book was better” seems to be a popular conclusion. But is that always the case? Some of the most successful and beloved films of all times are based on books, and there's also the Harry Potter series. This weeks episode sees the dads debating which are the best movies based on books, and amazingly some of us knuckle-dragging morons have even picked up a novel or two over the years. Dan nominated this weeks feature, ...

Grab your bunsen burner, put on your lab coat and protective goggles and get ready to experiment as we kick off the show with our Top 5 movie scientists.

This weeks movie review is the new Netflix release Enola Holmes, starring Millie Bobby Brown and Jersey's finest, Henry Cavill. It's the youngest Holmes's turn in the spotlight as she hunts for her mother who has mysteriously...

As lock-down fever catches up with us, we once again had a virtual meetup to discuss all things movies and kids TV. Top 5 topic of discussion this week was worst movie children. This one certainly had Dan stumped! The movie this week was nominated by James Ward Byrkit, director of Coherence. He very kindly nominated I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore. It's a real pain to type that title, just so you know. Also nominated by Mr JWB was our kids entertainment, Octonauts. JWB's son is a b...

We sat down one evening to discuss the 2018 masterpiece, Replicas. We followed that up with a jaw dropping dissection of Spirit, Riding Free. And, if you love lists we have one about the Austrian Oak.... Join us on our maiden podcast voyage of discovery. Bask in the joy of mobile phone interference. Revel in the delight of clunky editing. Swoon as three bearded fools flummox their way through their first podcast. **Update** If you're joining us for our first episode - THANKS! We did have som...
