🎬🎙️ Welcome back to another episode of Moviewallas – your favorite weekly podcast for film lovers who can’t get enough of theater releases, streaming gems, and all things cinema! 🎬🎙️

In this episode, our trio — Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi — dive into two BIG releases and share their picks for what to watch from home!

🎥 MAIN REVIEWS:

🔥 F1: The Movie — Buckle up as we review one of the most expensive sports films ever made. Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) and starring Brad Pitt, Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, and Javier Bardem, F1 brings the high-octane thrill of Formula One racing to the big screen. But is it just a giant ad for the sport or a new summer blockbuster classic? Does it work for die-hard F1 fans and newcomers alike?

🧟‍♀️ 28 Years Later — The long-awaited third installment in the “28 Days/Weeks Later” trilogy reunites director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland. With a cast starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes, can this horror sequel capture the emotional resonance and genre-defining terror of its predecessors? Or does it stall at the start line?

🍿 WHAT TO STREAM THIS WEEK:
🎩 The Gilded Age – Season 3 is now streaming on Max.
💀 Companion – A mind-bending, genre-flipping thriller available on Hulu & Max.
🌳 The Tree of Life – Revisit Terrence Malick’s ethereal 2011 classic, starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain, also streaming on Max.

💬 PLUS: The team talks streaming service struggles, viewer tips (like JustWatch!), and why Brad Pitt might just be too cool to dislike.

🎬 Welcome to the Moviewallas Podcast!

This week, your hosts Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi are back with fresh takes on a live-action reboot, an indie rom-com with bite, and all the usual film banter you’ve come to expect. 🍿🎧

In this episode, we’re diving into two wildly different films — one a high-flying fantasy remake, the other a sharply observed modern romance:

🐉 HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON (2025)

The beloved DreamWorks animated hit gets the live-action treatment. Does it soar or stumble? The team weighs in on the casting, the creature design, and whether Toothless loses a bit of his charm in the translation. With big boots to fill, this adaptation sparked a spirited conversation about nostalgia, fidelity to source material, and how remakes can (or can’t) recapture magic.

💎 MATERIALISTS

The latest from Past Lives director Celine Song, this sharp, stylish romantic dramedy explores love, ambition, and the emotional calculus of modern relationships. Set in New York and steeped in wit and yearning, Materialists prompted a lively debate from the hosts — with Yazdi applauding its depth, Rashmi appreciating its elegance, and Joe raising questions about its emotional accessibility.

📺 STREAMING PICKS

The team also shares a few things to watch from home:

• The Seed of the Sacred Fig — streaming on Hulu

• Dabba Cartel — a gritty Hindi-language crime series on Netflix

• Long Way Round — Ewan McGregor’s global motorcycle journey on Apple TV+

🎬 Welcome to the Moviewallas Podcast! This week, your hosts Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi return with all the movie magic, streaming picks, banter, and film festival chatter your cinephile heart desires. 🍿🎧

In this episode, we’re diving into two incredibly different but equally intriguing films:

💀 BRING HER BACK
The team reviews this chilling new horror from the creators of “Talk to Me,” exploring themes of grief, dread, and sinister rituals. Joe and Rashmi found it cleverly crafted and terrifyingly effective, while Yazdi offers a cautionary word about its shock value and disturbing elements. The film certainly left an impression and sparked a passionate debate!

📚 JANE AUSTEN WRECKED MY LIFE
On the completely opposite end of the spectrum, we dive into this whimsical and romantic French-British indie about a bookseller navigating fantasy, love, and literary illusions. Oozing charm and wrapped in Austen-esque wit, this delightful rom-com was a crowd-pleaser, earning glowing reactions (and high scores!) from all three hosts. If you loved “Midnight in Paris” or “Notting Hill,” you’ll adore this hidden gem.

🎥 STREAMING PICKS
Not sure what to watch tonight? We’ve got you covered with three solid streaming picks:
– Rashmi recommends the beautiful and heartfelt drama PAST LIVES, now on Netflix.
– Yazdi offers the wonderfully written ENOUGH SAID starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus & James Gandolfini on Hulu.
– Joe picks the stylized and addictive WHITE LOTUS Season 3 (HBO/Max), complete with vacation vibes and dark secrets.

🍫 Plus, we taste-test viral Dubai pistachio chocolate slabs (some of us are still picking bits from our teeth) and discuss the struggle of endless streaming queues (you know you’ve been there).

🎟️ We also tease our upcoming coverage from the Tribeca Film Festival in New York — stay tuned as we bring you film highlights straight from the heart of the action!
