2nd Chance Cinema Club

Steff and Hutch

Giving forgotten and terrible films another roll of the dice. We plumb the depths of all the streaming services and uncover any rough diamonds deserving of another chance. Each week, Steff and Hutch pick a film to dissect and decide whether time has been kind.

2025/07/25

Send us a text We are bursting at the seams with news this week, with plenty going on to sink our teeth into. We do pause and mark the passing of the Prince of Darkness, however. The movie under review for this episode is 2011's Paul, starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. But not, as Steff makes very clear, directed by Edgar Wright. Can he make peace with Greg Mottola at the helm, long enough to give an unbiased opinion? Certainly not! It's another mixed bag for Last Chance Cinema this week, as...

2025/07/18

Send us a text Star Wars updates abound this week as we cover the news that Papa George is attending his first ever Comic Con, and you too can own a slice of prop history (for the right coin). There’s also news on the latest instalments in the Mortal Kombat and Tron franchises. Then it’s onto our main event, a review of Keanu resurrection vehicle John Wick. Plenty of bang for your buck guaranteed, but is it a case of style over substance? It’s time for Last Chance Cinema Club after that, with...

Send us a text Another sad passing to mark this week, as we salute the Admiral Piett actor for the final time. We then roundup all the TV we have and have not been watching lately. Plus there's a couple of stories about water, for... reasons. Following that is our main event, and this week we are reviewing 1999's End of Days. Schwarzenegger vs The Devil! What's not to love? Well, a few things apparently. The episode concludes with our Last Chance Cinema Club section, before Steff picks next w...

Send us a text The boys are back from holiday and can now regale us of their Croatian odyssey. In short, Hutch was mainly sat by the pool, but at least Steff took some culture in. It’s also a bumper news week, as we discuss a couple of remakes of “beloved” movies and a new entry in a classic franchise. We also mark the sad passing of actor Michael Madsen. It’s 2021’s Swan Song being reviewed this week, and after Steff figured out the right movie to watch, discussion can begin. Is it light on ...

2025/06/27

Send us a text Spielberg's shark based magnum opus is the subject of some therapy for our intrepid duo this week, as we cover the news that Jaws turns 50 years old. This week's movie is 2012's DREDD. Certainly not to be confused with 1995's JUDGE DREDD, which we will barely be mentioning... There's also a sophisticated chat around the latest movies to leave Prime this week; in our Last Chance Cinema section, before Steff selects one of Hutch's submissions for next week's review. You can conta...

Send us a text The boys have gone all trendy and modern this week, reviewing a cartoon movie that came out five minutes ago. It’s opened Hutch up to a whole new world, but Steff’s gammy eyes are stopping him from truly enjoying it. But before that, there’s a bumper news section to get through, with plenty to talk about. Highlights are a rough version of Star Wars; heavy metal gigs; video games, and the big one- it’s the sequel we thought we’d never see… Rounding things off, there’s our ...

2025/06/13

Send us a text From R rated content last time, to (sort of) X rated this week- Steff tells us all about his "entirely-for-research" visit to the burlesque Star Wars parody show currently touring the country. To come down off all that excitement, we review 2009's Terminator Salvation. The franchise comprises of some excellent films (the first and second ones) and some real robo turds (everything else). But where abouts does this one sit in the oeuvre? Elsewhere, there's some scratching around ...

I’m Backwards: Star Wars News, Tenet Movie Review

2nd Chance Cinema Club ·

2025/06/06

Send us a text It’s Christopher Nolan’s palindromic reverse-athon “Tenet” under the review microscope this week. Perversely, the boys may not actually know what they are talking about for once. But before we get into that, there’s some Star Wars news to be had, which gives Hutch another excuse to talk about Andor, and more R rated content. Steff takes us through a frankly spartan Last Chance Cinema Club section, before giving Hutch his customary two choices for next week’s episode. You can co...

Send us a text Just when you thought it was over, the boys produce another fine helping of scintillating Andor conversation. This time covering the series as a whole and answering the big question- was it as good as the first one? There's also some other Star Wars news, as we kick around ideas for an 18 certificate Star Wars movie. Then it’s finally time to return to the actual topic of the podcast- reviewing overlooked/underappreciated/incomprehensible movies. This week the spotlight f...

2025/05/23

Send us a text All too soon, we have reached the end of the latest Star Wars series. This week we deep dive into the final three episodes of Andor season 2. It's been a grand showing so far- but does it finish strong, or does it drop the ball? Steff manages to tear Hutch away from talking about it for five minutes, to do some Last Chance Cinema Club goodness. Next week we will review the series as a whole and discuss it in the wider galactic context. We also return to our show's actual topic,...

2025/05/09

Send us a text We are rapidly racing towards the business end of the latest Star Wars series, and things are getting very real, very quickly! Betrayal seems to be a common theme amongst the various factions, and we are starting to see pieces of a Rogue One shaped puzzle falling into place. Also, some cat person talks about sad soup, or something. See what the guys think of the story till now and hear their speculations on the final three episodes to come, by tuning in immediately. There are a...

Send us a text It’s another film-less review week on the show, but with good reason, as we continue our in depth look at the latest three episodes of Andor to drop onto Disney+. The slow burn theme seems to be continuing, but can the series pick up the pace as we hurtle towards the halfway mark? In a bid to actually discuss some films on our movie based podcast, we talk about the latest batch of titles to be expunged from Prime, in our Last Chance Cinema Club section. You can contact us at:...

Send us a text It’s finally here! Andor Season 2 has dropped at last, so this week we dedicate a big chunk of time to discussing the first three episodes in detail. Will it live up to Hutch’s insanely high expectations? Or is it mere Bantha fodder? Tune in to find out. But that’s not all. In a week chokka with Star Wars goodness, we also cover the main announcements and learnings from Star Wars Celebration 2025 in Tokyo. It's almost forgotten in all the excitement, but Steff rounds us off wit...

Send us a text One week to go until Andor season 2 hits our screens! But until then, there's business to attend to. In news this week, there's excitement for a double helping of Star Wars back on the silver screen, Hutch tells us all about a new Sheffield based revenge thriller, and we pay brief tribute to the sad passing of actor Val Kilmer. In Second Chance Cinema Club, we review 1995's dystopic time travel "romp", Terry Gilliam's 12 Monkeys. There are literally no jokes to be made here. St...

Send us a text After a week off, we catch up with what the lad's have been up to. Hutch has been on a holiday, which if we were to sum up alliteratively would be: Belgian boats and brilliant books. Meanwhile, Steff has been enjoying some new, closer to home gangster content. Our 2nd Chance Cinema Club review this week is M. Night Shyamalan's 2008 magnum opus- The Happening. We spend the movie trying to guess the customary big twist. How do you think that panned out? Tune in and see... You can...

Send us a text Holidays and men crying over Disney's casting choices are on our minds this week. Plus, could Steff and Hutch go undercover in the Mafia? There's some Alone in the South Passage type news to discuss, as we catch up on the latest with Andor, and talk about a new album drop from John Williams. Our movie review this week is 2018's anti hero parasite fest, Venom. It's a bit of a gear change from last time's fare, so let it never be said that we are not versatile! We are having a we...

Send us a text A slightly different discourse this week, as we talk about 2004’s movie Primer. The shoestring budget, short running time, and DIY approach to exposition make for a tougher review, but never ones to shy away from a challenge, we roll up our sleeves and… kill time by talking about women’s rugby and celebrity poker games. Elsewhere, we start getting excited about the new season of Andor and get the latest roundup on films leaving Amazon Prime. You can contact us at: podcast@2ndch...

So this calls for a glitzy awards ceremony in this week's episode, as we nominate our pick of the best and worst films that we have critiqued in the past year. But before that, there's music to be discussed, as Steff takes us through his nostalgic Tuesday evening in Guildford. It's then time for our Second Chance movie of the week, 2011's t...

We pay a brief tribute to the veteran actor and mention our favourite movies from his impressive body of work. We also touch upon The 97th Academy Awards and discuss which Oscar winners caught our attention this year. It's then down to business, as we review James Caan future sports opus- Rollerball. We can't agree on what year it came out, but are we aligned on whether it's any good? You can co...

Meanwhile Hutch has been to Hogwarts and talked his daughter out of spending half her pocket money on a Butterbeer.
