The Generations Movie Review
Visit our website: https://generationsmoviereview.com
We love movies! As a family, we would go to the movies or rent one every weekend. Afterwards, we would talk about the movie and compare them to other movies. We would discuss what we liked and disliked about each movie. Sometimes these reviews would turn into lengthy discussions about the motifs and themes that transcended the movies themselves. This podcast serves as a formal, genuine attempt to capture those conversations.
Do you love movies? Have you watched a movie over and over again? What makes a movie timeless? Movies (like music) seen in our youths, or in times past, had strong impressions on us at the time. But how do those movies hold up? Movies play differently and mean different things depending on what phase of life you are in and what’s going on in the culture.
On the GMR you’ll be introduced (or re-introduced) to movies from two generational perspectives. In each podcast, we review two related movies with a similar theme, or same director, or same actor or remakes and sequels, etc. James provides perspective from the Gen X viewpoint and Kyle gives his Millennial angle.
Join us for thoughtful and sometimes humorous discussions of a wide range of beloved films.
We hope that our conversations inspire you to watch these movies for the first time. Or maybe we’ll rekindle your interest to watch them again! More importantly, we want to know your thoughts on the topics discussed!
Thank you for spending time with us here at The GMR!

The Generations Movie Review
Superman (1978) and Man Of Steel (2013)
Superhero movies have been the dominant force in Hollywood for 2 decades now! It’s hard to believe. If you’re in your 20’s you’ve probably never known cinema without a superhero movie. But that wasn’t always the case.
Everything has to start somewhere. A movie being the first of it’s kind sets the standards by which all other movies follow. That’s never been more true here. The bones of what any superhero movie is begins with Superman. Today, superhero movies and remakes of originals, offer enhanced special effects, a faster pace, and make the overall subject matter more visually agreeable and relatable to a whole different generation. Perhaps that’s what keep these movies alive!
Join Jim and Kyle as they discuss the classic groundbreaking movie Superman from 1978 and Man of Steel, the remake/reimagining from 2013. Both movies generally telling the same story for different generations.
Happy Listening!
