Brightburn

February 12, 2021
Hosts: Ocean Murff, Ray DeLancey

“After your dad and I got married, we prayed for a baby for so long. One night, someone listened.”

Ahhh ‘Brightburn’ … who would have thought that a film penned by the Gunn brothers would end up a film worthy of the Silver Linings treatment? This was supposed to be an absolute slam dunk of a super-horror-fest! Our experience with ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ set us up right proper for the initial run of this movie. Reviews were deeply mixed, but many of them said the premise was full of potential that ultimately didn’t deliver. It’s time to find some silver linings.

Have you ever liked – maybe even loved – a movie that everyone else seems to hate?

You’re not alone! Hosts Ray DeLancey and Ocean Murff look at movies that are often panned to see if their hate is warranted. Sure, we’ll talk about what might be broken, but more important: we talk about what really works in these films with the hope that we change some minds along the way… maybe even yours. So sit back, relax, and let’s take the guilt out of guilty pleasures.
