AFTER 53:30 you get our WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) FULL REVIEW
You know we love our wrestling here at the BFE (well some of us...). Join Ian from Best Film Ever and Stew from The Stew World Order podcast as we break the BFE format by looking at WrestleMania 40 (Night Two). We discuss whether The Rock is helping or hurting creative? Did WWE promise something they ultimately couldn't deliver on? What exactly is a Bloodline Rules match anyways and did the end result justify the Night One Main Event? We also discuss who has the worst finisher on the WWE roster? We'll answer all these questions on WrestleMania 40 (Night Two) and then we'll compare it to WrestleManias of the past.

And whether a two-night WrestleMania card is diluting the quality off matches that qualify for the event?

AFTER 23:40 it's a full spoiler review
You know the BFE is getting up there in years when we're doing a SIOSI that's a sequel to an earlier film that we also did a SIOSI on. Join us as we look at the sequel to a legacy sequel in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. We discuss whether Paul Rudd is being over-exposed? Are there too many characters in this film? Did we need every character back from Oklahoma in New York City? Were all the actors even trying all that hard? Which returns made us cheer and which made us groan? And whether Ghostbusters is trying to pivot from an adult based audience to a pre-teen audience. We'll answer all these questions on Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.

We usually go king sized on the BFE but perhaps brevity truly is the source of wit. Welcome to Three Act Structure: the BFE review show where we have to pass judgment on films but this time, we can only use 3 words or less - wait, should that be 'or fewer?'
This month we're reviewing the global box office champion from 1977 to 2023. How will films like Star Wars, Back To The Future, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, The Avengers and Barbie do when we're limited to a trifecta of words.
What 3 words would you have used? Let us know on social media over at twitter.com/bestfilmeverpod

FIRST 32:20 are a spoiler-free review with our See It/Skip It verdict
AFTER 30:45 it's a full spoiler review
I'd argue we're likely done with the Oscar frontrunners now but we couldn't miss out on the Jeffrey Wright fronted Best Picture nominated American Fiction, and so we are giving it the See It or Skip It treatment. We discuss counter-stereotypes and anti-stereotypes and when does allyship overpower the voices that matter? Should Jeffrey Wright be discussed in the Best Actor shortlist? What is the unique angle for this film on this year? Where have we seen Monk's brother before? Now that we've seen the frontrunners, where do we sit with The Oscar categories this year? We'll answer all these questions on American Fiction and then we tell you whether you should SEE IT or SKIP IT.
