Paddington heads home to Peru but discovers that Aunt Lucy has gone on a quest of some sort in this anticipated third instalment, releasing seven years after the beloved Paddington 2. Phoenix Buchanan is a living legend.
Prepare for Peruvian bear impressions and homemade theme tunes. A marmalade sandwich would go down nicely with this one.

This week, there's a cold chill in the air, heavy rain and suitably dark content to review. The latest MCU project, Agatha All Along has debuted its first two episodes and the MOU boys are pleasantly surprised! Adam reviews Speak No Evil and Alfie reviews the second series of Netflix's Monsters, this time looking at the story of the Menendez family.
We would also like to pay tribute to Dame Maggie Smith who passed away aged 89. She was a magnificent actress and a national treasure portraying...

Adam's got you covered with reviews this week, reviewing both The Critic (the new mystery/thriller from Ian McKellen) and Lee (the biopic about Lee Miller, famed photojournalist).
The lads also have laugh at guessing sis different quotes from films... you just know Michael is going to be in there somewhere. Speaking of Michael, he stops by to talk about his 60th birthday party.

Due to some technical difficulties, episode 31 was delayed a week - you can blame Adam's laptop for that. You may also notice that Adam's audio isn't spectacular this week, you can just blame Adam himself for that. That kid got a First in his degree if you can believe it (and he claims he didn't bribe the chancellors...)
ANYWAY, in this episode, the boys chat about the sequel to Beetlejuice which has arrived after 36 years, the second season of The Rings of Power and Netflix's new show...

This week, Alfie reviews the popular Alien: Romulus while Adam watches Alien (1979) and Aliens (1986) for the first time ever. The cancellation of The Acolyte is the top story on everyone's lips and a tricky question about musical biopics challenges the boys.

Two is company, three’s a crowd… you’re telling me! Our Zoom calls bandwidth could hardly handle the three of us lads (so apologies for the glitchy mics). Nonetheless we’re here with episode 28.
Friend of the show Josh Brooker has us covered with an absolutely scathing review of Borderlands. Adam covers the Colleen Nolan novel turn film, It Ends With Us. And this weeks guest co-host Euan Walsh reviews M. Night Shyamalan's newest twist-less feature Trap.
The lads also discuss the D23 news...

In this episode, the boys review Kneecap - a Belfast-based musical biopic - and House of the Dragon Season 2. Why have so many of the recent TV series let us down though? How can streaming services overcome this rut they seem to be in? Bring back physical media - that's what Movie On Up says!
Oh, Adam's Mum also makes an appearance!

The production schedule had gone out the window and Adam and Alfie were nigh on melting in the sweltering studio. However, they powered through and chatted about the new Marvel announcements from San Diego Comic-Con (RDJr is cast as who??) before delving into Deadpool & Wolverine's highs, lows and bits in between.
There's also a rant about Allelujah, a forgotten, baffling movie from last year... don't get us started.

After watching the finale of The Acolyte, Adam and Alfie gathered on Wednesday morning to express their thoughts and feelings towards the most divisive Star Wars project since The Last Jedi. Although initially (and surprisingly) impressed, the pair soon unpacked the show's nuances and descended into a theatrical rant.
As promised in Episode 24, here is the uncut discussion.

Just like A Quiet Place, aliens abruptly swept in and disrupted this week’s recording of Movie On Up (aka Adam’s Dad turned up and was waiting for him in the lay-by). BUT up until that point the boys were on full form in the studio.
Adam share’s his less than favourable opinion on Yorgos Lanthimos’ new film: Kinds Of Kindness. The boys also discuss A Quiet Place: Day One and The Bikeriders, and as is becoming tradition here on Movie On Up, the lads find something new in the Acolyte to hate...
