Bullock goes bionic! Join us as we review the 1989 film with the longest title ever, Bionic Showdown: The Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman. This is Sandra Bullock's second movie, and we have to say there's a clear step up from her first movie which we reviewed last episode. This film features some lovable 80's music, dialogue, and costumes that elevates this otherwise confusing movie and subpar plot to quite the enjoyable watch! And do we see a hint of Sandra Bullock's iconic physica...

What do a Barnes & Noble Cashier, a Matisse painting, a fish factory, and a cement truck have in common? Check out Two if by Sea to find out! This 1996 "romantic comedy" features Sandra Bullock and Denis Leary as their characters grapple with moral obligation, slight identity crises, and a blossoming love of art (and each other?). While there were things we liked about this movie, it tries to do a LOT in 90 minutes and we definitely have thoughts on what would've made it better (plus an alternat...

The time has come to review what’s widely regarded as Sandra Bullock’s breakout film, Speed! Starring Keanu Reeves alongside Sandra, this action-thriller has everything you could want…amazing chemistry between the leads, a tension-filled plot, people coming together in the face of disaster, and a bus jumping 50 feet of unfinished highway. Tune into hear how this film ranks against every other Sandra Bullock film, our thoughts on why this movie is such a classic, and reminiscing on Keanu in his ...

Last episode we reviewed the iconic 1994 film, Speed. Now it's time to review the letdown of a sequel, Speed 2: Cruise Control. Speed 2 loses Keanu Reeves and picks up the slowest motorized vehicle possible...both equally devastating changes. The chemistry between Bullock and co-star Jason Patric leaves much to be desired. Willem Dafoe plays the villain, and while very creepy, the story just wasn't built out to create the tension of the original. Speed 2 is not even a slow burn. It's just dead i...

Join us as we review the 1989 comedy starring Sandra Bullock alongside Jonathan Penner. While the plot moves along slowly & could have been fleshed out more, we have to admit that this movie portrays a parodical view on religion that rings all too true in 2021. Tune in to hear how this early movie stacks up in the ranking vs all other Sandra Bullock movies!

The Vanishing is a 1993 mystery thriller starring Jeff Bridges, Kiefer Sutherland, and our girl Sandra Bullock. While Sandra herself is not in the majority of this movie, her character looms larger than life throughout. This movie might not be an absolute must-watch but the creepy and twisting plot keeps you on your toes and can make you jump and squirm! Join us this week as we talk about survival techniques, what our significant others would do if we disappeared (😅), and this overlooked Sandra...

Join us as we review Infamous, aa 2006 drama based on George Plimpton's 1997 book Truman Capote: In Which Various Friends, Enemies, Acquaintances, and Detractors Recall His Turbulent Career . The film covers Capote's journey to writing his book In Cold Blood which is based off of a small-town murder. Toby Jones plays Capote alongside Daniel Craig as Perry and Sandra Bullock as Nelle Harper Lee (who you know as the author of To Kill A Mockingbird). The film boasts a large, well-known cast, but w...

Is there anything more relatable than being in love with a stranger from afar, saving his life, and subsequently being mistaken for his fiancee as he lays in a coma? Okay maybe, but we've all dreamt about it, right? That's what you get in the 1995 movie While You Were Sleeping starring Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman. In this episode, we dive into why this unrealistic rom-com feels so relatable and nostalgic! Check out the full episode to find out how we rated this film in each of our 5 categor...

Join us as we review the 2000 drama 28 Days starring Sandra Bullock alongside Viggo Mortensen. In this movie Gwen first appears as fun-loving, but we quickly realize she’s out of control and in denial of her addiction. We follow her to court-ordered rehab which she struggles to take seriously. After she gets to know her fellow residents, she opens up to the possibility of a different life. Though criticized by some for the way it portrays addiction, we found this film to be touching and engagin...

Did you know Liam Neeson and Sandra Bullock were in a movie together? Because before this podcast, we did not! Join us as review the 2000 movie Gun Shy. The mob and the cartel come together in this movie in what ends up being quite a confusing plot. Liam Neeson’s stomach issues and a couple slapstick action scenes sprinkle some humor in to the film…but not quite enough to boost this movie in the rankings. Tune in to hear how we rate this movie on all 5 categories! More about Girl Crush: Websi...

Did you know Sandra Bullock has bee in TWO movies set in Bolivia? In today's episode, we'll be reviewing both! Fire on the Amazon, released in 1993, finds Sandra Bullock alongside Craig Sheffer investigating a murder with a rainforest preservation group. This movie has an intriguing description, but the execution fell way flat. Our Brand is Crisis is a 2015 film based on the true story of a seasoned campaign strategist who's lured out of retirement to work for an unlikable senator running for ...

The time has come to review one of our personal favorites in Sandra Bullock's filmography! We are digging into the iconic '09 rom-com The Proposal. A star-studded cast including Ryan Reynolds, Betty White, Mary Steenburgen, Craig Nelson, and Oscar Nunez deliver one of (dare we say it?) the greatest rom-coms of all time. They just don't make them like this anymore! Join us as we dissect Sandra Bullock's ponytail, swoon over Ryan Reynolds, hail Betty White, and giggle incessantly in this episode....

When we say we watch EVERY movie in one actress's filmography...we mean it. And we're proving that here with our reviews of two mockumentaries that Sandra Bullock made tiny (like... teeny tiny) appearances in. Join us as we take you through the 2000 film "Lisa Picard is Famous" and the 1998 film "Welcome to Hollywood." We've deduced a few things from reviewing these films, but our largest takeaway is we hate mockumentaries. Tune in to hear our thoughts and how we consider these in the context o...

Today's episode brings us to a film that's sweet and heartwarming, albeit slightly melancholy - Wrestling Ernest Hemingway. In this movie, two older gentlemen (played by Robert Duvall and Richard Harris) become the most unlikely of friends. Sandra Bullock plays a sweet diner waitress with a soft spot for her regulars. Listen along as we giggle, "aw," and tear up during our review and reveal where this movie falls in the ranking of every Sandra Bullock movie! More about Girl Crush: Website: www...

Spooky season is HERE and so is our much anticipated review of Practical Magic, starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman! This movie quickly became a staple in our Halloween movie line up.

Join us for our review of the 1996 film A Time To Kill starring Sandra Bullock alongside Matthew McConaughey and Samuel L. Jackson. Trigger warning, this movie contains themes of sexual assault, racial tensions, and violence. Though tough to watch, this film is a thought-provoking and emotional one!

A blonde Sandra Bullock with southern twang and a homeless teenager come together to bring us a story of resilience, inspiration, and football. Tune in as we review the Academy Award winning film The Blind Side and its humor, heartwarming moments, and lessons on prejudice. Featuring performances by Quinton Aaron, Tim McGraw, Lily Collins, Jae Head, and Kathy Bates, this film (loosely based on the true story of Michael Oher) is one for the books. In this episode, we also reveal the name of our S...

The time has come to review our last movie of the season to round out our ranking of EVERY Sandra Bullock movie! In this episode, we review the 2013 film Gravity, starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in a blood-pumping space survival movie. This movie received 7 Academy Awards amongst a host of other accolades! Listen to hear all of our thoughts on the cinematography, sound effects, and acting that makes this film so stunning. Also hear our thoughts on space vs. the ocean and how we could...

Join us as we review Sandra Bullock's NEW movie The Unforgivable! This intense drama had a limited theater release in November 2021 and then launched on Netflix December 10, 2021. Even though this movie came out after we finished Season 2 (reviewing every Sandra Bullock film), we still reviewed it and scored it on our 5 categories: Plot, Character, Acting, Would You Watch Again, and Boss Babe. But instead of discussing beforehand as usual, we determine our scores live on the pod! Tune in for a ...

Join us as we review Sandra Bullock's NEW movie The Lost City! In addition to our girl Sandy B, this film also stars Channing Tatum, Daniel Radcliffe, and Brad Pitt! We got to see this comedy together in theaters, and it's now available to stream on Paramount+. Tune in to hear our thoughts on the chemistry between the stars, jungle water, and Channing Tatum's bare butt (omg). Even though this movie came out after we finished Season 2 where we reviewed and ranked EVERY Sandra Bullock movie, we s...
