We bring you Feature Reviews of “22 Jump Street,” “How to Train Your Dragon 2,” “The Fault in Our Stars” and “Maleficent.” And for this show, we actually have some pre-recorded hosting going on: Josh recorded his thoughts from Boston, so this show still features audio clips from Josh, even though he couldn’t make it live. And since it was Father’s Day when we recorded this, Andy’s daughter, Evan, gives us a couple of reviews, as well! If you dig our show, please subscribe for free in iTunes. Thanks for listening.

Oh, yeah, and we also Feature Review “The Wolf of Wall Street,” “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty,” “Saving Mr. Banks” and “Runner Runner.” All this and so much more awaits you during this 3-hour and 44-minute episode of Movie Podcast Weekly.
