Two mates. Two accents. Zero filter.
You couldn’t find two more different people — from opposite sides of the world, with completely different takes on what’s entertaining, what’s serious, and what’s downright ridiculous.
Rohan (the Aussie) loves his rom-coms. Rob (the Scotsman) swears by his action flicks. Together they deep-dive into one film each week — unpacking the themes, cast, controversies, and behind-the-scenes chaos — all with plenty of laughs and the occasional argument.
Sometimes they agree. Often they don’t. But that’s half the fun.
New episodes drop every Saturday. Also on YouTube

This week we review the 2003 romantic comedy-drama film Lost in Translation written and directed by Sofia Coppola.
Bill Murray stars as Bob Harris, a fading American movie star who is having a midlife crisis when he travels to Tokyo to promote Suntory whisky.
There, he befriends another disillusioned American named Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson), a young woman and recent college graduate.
The film explores themes of alienation and disconnection against a backdrop of cultural displacement in Japan.
It defies mainstream narrative conventions and is atypical in its depiction of romance.
We reminisce about recent trips to Japan including the time the Aussie refused to get naked for the Onsen.
We absolutely loved this movie. The Scotsman rates this 5/5.
"Lost in Translation presents a mature exploration of connection and intimacy that prioritizes emotional depth over physical attraction. Rather than following conventional romantic formulas, the film builds its power through understated moments, shared silences, and the bond that develops between two people adrift in an unfamiliar culture." he says
We discuss mid-life crisis and loveless marriages. We discuss divorce and everything in between.
We reveal what Bill Murray said to Scarlett Johansen at the end of the movie in the trivia section.
