We Love It Really is the movie roast podcast from two hopeless film nerds who rewatch the films they genuinely love — then proceed to interrogate every plot hole, dodgy line, questionable decision, gloriously shit effect and tiny ridiculous detail nobody asked us to notice.
Horror. Musicals. Action. Family classics. Cult favourites. Oscar winners. Absolute cinematic bollocks. Nothing is safe.
This isn’t a bad-movie podcast. We’re not here to tell you your favourite film is shit. We’re here to ask the important questions, overanalyse things to a frankly unnecessary degree, go wildly off topic, swear quite a lot — and somehow love the film even more by the end.
We roast because we love. Really.
🎬 Two nerds. One movie. Far too many notes.
🔥 New roast, same unhealthy level of detail.

]]>This week, We Love It Really heads back to Neverland for a loving roast of one of the biggest fantasy films of the 1990s — complete with pirates, food fights, questionable parenting, wildly impractical child supervision and Dustin Hoffman having the absolute time of his life under an extraordinary amount of prosthetic nose.
We get into Robin Williams as the world’s most stressed-out Peter Pan, Dustin Hoffman’s gloriously theatrical Captain Hook, Julia Roberts as Tinker Bell, Bob Hoskins as Smee, Rufio, the Lost Boys, the imaginary feast, the crocodile clock, the baseball, the mermaids, the pirate ship and the frankly astonishing amount of trauma everyone appears to accept as a perfectly normal family holiday.
There’s Steven Spielberg magic everywhere, John Williams doing emotional damage with the score, peak 1991 nostalgia and enough Neverland logic to keep two overthinking film fans occupied for far longer than is medically advisable.
If you love 90s movies, Robin Williams films, Steven Spielberg, Peter Pan, fantasy adventure movies, nostalgic cinema, comedy film reviews, movie podcasts, film podcasts or simply listening to two people lovingly dismantle a film they genuinely adore, you’ve come to the right place.
FAIR WARNING: This is an adults-only movie roast. Expect strong language, sexual chat, inappropriate observations, spoilers and the occasional conversational detour that absolutely would not survive a Disney HR meeting.
We love these films. Really. That’s why nothing is safe.
Our roast this week is… HOOK (1991).

]]>This week, Alice and Neil are heading back to the glorious world of 1990s sci-fi comedy: a time when Will Smith could save the planet before lunch, Tommy Lee Jones could communicate an entire emotional range by moving one eyebrow, and an intergalactic immigration crisis could apparently be solved with sunglasses, paperwork and a suspiciously shiny pen.
We genuinely love this film. Really. Which is precisely why we have questions.
Questions like: who approved this recruitment process? Why is nobody remotely concerned about workplace health and safety? How many innocent civilians have had their memories wiped because somebody couldn't be bothered explaining themselves? And at what point does dealing with giant extraterrestrial insects stop being a government job and start requiring considerably better overtime?
Expect aliens, conspiracy theories, questionable employment practices, enormous cockroaches, tiny guns, exploding heads, 90s nostalgia and two people applying a completely unreasonable amount of adult logic to a film that absolutely did not ask for it.
If you love funny movie podcasts, film reviews, movie roasts, retro movies, 90s movies, sci-fi comedy, cult classics, nostalgic cinema, Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones or simply listening to two friends lovingly dismantle films they adore, welcome in.
We love it. Really. That's why we're roasting it.
CONTENT WARNING: Strong language, spoilers and a frankly unnecessary amount of sexual conversation. This is very much an adults-only trip to the cinema. Please do not listen with your nan unless your nan is considerably more broad-minded than ours.
OUR ROAST THIS WEEK IS: MEN IN BLACK (1997)
Starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. A 1990s sci-fi comedy classic involving aliens, secret agents, the neuralyzer and one extremely angry bug.

Quite a lot, as it turns out.
This week Alice and Neil are heading deep into the glorious, sweaty, testosterone-soaked world of 1980s action cinema — where shirts are optional, biceps are apparently a form of military equipment and absolutely nobody thinks that firing several thousand rounds of ammunition blindly into a forest might be considered excessive.
At the centre of it all is Arnold Schwarzenegger, surrounded by one of the most magnificently macho ensembles ever assembled: Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura, Bill Duke, Sonny Landham, Richard Chaves and Shane Black. They're highly trained, heavily armed and extremely confident.
Unfortunately, something in the trees has other ideas.
We genuinely love this film. But once you start applying adult logic to it, the questions arrive alarmingly quickly.
How much ammunition did these men actually carry?
Is arm wrestling an acceptable form of greeting?
Why does everyone appear to have been recruited according to upper-arm circumference?
At what point during a covert military operation does somebody say, “You know what this situation needs? A minigun”?
And perhaps most importantly: if you're being hunted through a jungle by an invisible extraterrestrial with thermal vision and advanced alien weaponry, is covering yourself in mud genuinely the best plan humanity can come up with?
Expect enormous muscles, bigger guns, questionable military tactics, spectacular one-liners, alien technology, camouflage, explosions, 1980s machismo and Alice and Neil spending an unreasonable amount of time discussing things John McTiernan almost certainly never intended anyone to examine this closely.
If you love funny movie podcasts, film reviews, movie roasts, Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, 80s action movies, classic sci-fi, sci-fi horror, alien movies, action films, cult classics, retro cinema, movie nostalgia or simply listening to two friends lovingly tear apart films they genuinely adore — you've found your people.
Because this isn't about finding bad films.
We love it. Really. That's why we're roasting it.
CONTENT WARNING: Strong language, spoilers, violence and a frankly impressive amount of sexual conversation. This podcast is for adults. If you're listening with your nan, that's between you, your nan and whatever conversations you're prepared to have afterwards.
OUR ROAST THIS WEEK IS: PREDATOR (1987)
Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura and Kevin Peter Hall, and directed by John McTiernan. The action/sci-fi/horror classic that took an elite commando unit, dropped them into the jungle and introduced them to something considerably better at hunting than they were.
