Episode 133: We'll Be There For You #2 - Commandments

The HD Movie Podcast

Episode 133 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell take yet another look at movies of any year, any genre and any quality.

Once again, we'll be there for you as it's the second episode of our Friends-related miniseries! Last week, your hosts kicked things off with Jennifer Aniston in The Object Of My Affection, now it's the turn of Courteney Cox. Lots of us know her as neat freak Monica Geller (later Geller-Bing) but in 1997 she also starred in the romantic comedy COMMANDMENTS, which features Aidan Quinn as a bloke who's had enough of his misfortune and decides to go up against God by breaking all ten of the...well, the title gives a fairly big hint.

It's a first watch for both Hayley and Darren and it's safe to say that the film was not entirely what they were expecting. They investigate the curious case of the narration in this tale, in addition to discussing some heavyweight production talent, a number of loose plot threads, a few passing nods to Biblical happenings and the big, overriding question of who this film could actually be aimed at. Plus their assessment of Courteney's performance, of course.

You know what would be a sin? Ignoring the music of Mitch Bain, that's what! Mitch writes and performs HDMP's various tunes and you can find him on social media: @whoelsebutmitch on Twitter, evertheoptimitch on Instagram.
