The Martian (2015) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Martian (2015) review lands on Born to Watch this week as Whitey, Gow and Will blast off to Mars for Ridley Scott's hugely entertaining tale of survival, science, potatoes and one very unlucky astronaut. The Movie Review Podcast, where we do not take the movies or ourselves too seriously, is tackling one of the most rewatchable science-fiction films of the last decade, starring Matt Damon as Mark Watney, a man forced to do what none of us could possibly manage: stay alive on Mars using his b
This is Spinal Tap (1984) (opens the original)

This Is Spinal Tap Review takes Born to Watch somewhere few podcasts dare to go: backstage with Britain's loudest band, where amplifiers go to eleven, drummers have an alarming mortality rate, Stonehenge has serious measurement issues, and a beautiful piano composition can somehow be called “Lick My Love Pump”. Whitey, Damo and Dan are back to revisit Rob Reiner's 1984 mockumentary masterpiece, This Is Spinal Tap , a movie that barely made a ripple when it first arrived but went on to become one

This week on Born to Watch, we head into Prohibition-era Chicago for The Untouchables 1987 Review , revisiting Brian De Palma's stylish gangster classic starring Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Robert De Niro and Andy Garcia.

More importantly, this special episode is dedicated to our great mate Chupperz, who requested the film. Chupperz, this one is for yo
Fright Night (1985) (opens the original)

This week on Born to Watch, we sink our teeth into a Fright Night 1985 Review , revisiting one of the most recognisable vampire movies of the VHS era. For Whitey, this one comes loaded with childhood nostalgia, a movie discovered through an unforgettable video shop cover and watched countless times growing up. For Gow and Damo, however, this is essentially fresh blood. So, after more than 40 years, does Fright Night still deliver the perfect combination of horror, comedy and '80s vampire cool, o
Rambo III (1988) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If a movie was ever made for the Born to Watch treatment, this is it. In our Rambo III 1988 Review , Whitey is joined by two certified ’80s action tragics, Bones and DJ Glazby, to revisit Sylvester Stallone at his biggest, most shredded and possibly most ridiculous. The Russians are back, Colonel Trautman needs rescuing, Afghanistan is the battlefield, and John J. Rambo is about to discover that retirement is apparently not an option. For Whitey, Rambo isn’t simply another action franchise. John
