Finally, a movie podcast that takes place in a car!
Pete and Trevor are movie fans with nothing better to do. Come along with us on our drive to and from the cinema. On the drive there, we’ll be discussing general background on the movie and talk about our expectations. On the drive back again, you will hear spoiler talk about our first impressions of the movie having just exited the theatre.
Will we see a “stone-cold masterpiece”? Will we see a stinker to end all stinkers? Will we run into traffic and miss the trailers? We’ll answer all these questions and more!
Pete and Trevor looked up, up, and away for Supergirl, directed by Craig Gillespie and starring Milly Alcock, Matthias Schoenaerts, and Eve Ridley. Listen to our immediate reactions after leaving the theatre as we discuss whether the latest entry in the new DC Universe lives up to the hype.
Before the feature review, we look ahead at the movies we’re most excited to see during the second half of 2026. After the review, we stick around for some trailer talk, including our thoughts on the latest look at Digger.
What are you most looking forward to seeing for the rest of 2026? Let us know by sending us a voicemail (via audio clip) at firstlookfinalwordpod@gmail.com.

Hamnet / The Secret Agent / Train Dreams
As Oscar season is dwindling to a close, Pete and Trevor narrow their focus on three Best Picture nominees: Train Dreams (directed by Clint Bentley, starring Joel Edgerton, Felicity Jones), The Secret Agent (directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho, starring Wagner Moura), and Hamnet (directed by Chloé Zhao, starring Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal).
For our feature Hamnet, we provide our immediate reactions after watching the film. Spoiler alert: this movie is a powerhouse of sadness.
Next week we cover The Bride and finish our Oscar project with recaps of Frankenstein and Marty Supreme.
