Spoilerpiece Theatre Episode 189: Game Night

“Spoilerpiece Theatre” is a weekly movie podcast where I talk about new releases with fellow BOFCA critics Dave Riedel and Kris Jenson. We don’t give a shit about spoilers. We just want to talk about the movies.

In Episode 189 below, we review Game Night, The Leisure Seeker, The Boss Baby, Loving Vincent, and Pacific Heights. Hello there! On this week’s episode, Dave and I run through quintessential early ’90s psycho stalker flick Pacific Heights (5:04) that lets Keaton be Keaton. Next up, Dave unleashes his disdain for the pointless and needlessly infuriating The Leisure Seeker (17:19), which thankfully no one is going to see anyway. Then it’s on to Kris, who watched two films nominated for Best Animated Feature, The Boss Baby (24:41) and Loving Vincent (30:48). He hated one and tolerated the other. Guess which is which — then flip that guess, and that’s the correct answer. Last up is the main event, Game Night (33:55), which has massively undersold just how funny and exciting it is through awful, horrendous trailers. It’s the rarest of all movies: an action-thriller-comedy where all three components work!
