This is Jay, Erin, and Richard, and we're The VCR Kids! We watch movies from our childhood and see if they still hold up. Every week we take a movie we loved (or maybe just watched) as a child and submit it for review to our adult brains. We also have special episodes on Pretentious Picks, and our Harry Potter Virgin series where we force our friend Andrew to watch all the movies. Subscribe to the show and tell your friends! Shoot us a line on social media @TheVCRKids, we'd love to hear from you!

    Lake Placid

    Lake Placid

    Did you know this movie actually has nothing to do with the actual Lake Placid? Neither did we, until we watched it. Whatever you do, please don't take the animal "facts" in this movie to heart.

    The Matrix

    The Matrix

    We’ve watched a lot of movies that have had a big impact on culture, but maybe none more than this one. With the release of the fourth Matrix movie, we all kind of wanted to revisit the original. Does this 1999 classic hold up in 2022, or is it a relic of its time? Find out what we think this week on The VCR Kids!

    Dinosaur

    Dinosaur

    Over 20 years ago, Disney tried to experiment with computer animation in a way no one had ever seen before. With a huge marketing budget, tons of dinosaur toys at McDonalds, and a ride at a Disney theme park, does Dinosaur still hold up? We watched the much-forgotten “classic” and we’ll let you know our thoughts this week on The VCR Kids.

    Dirty Work

    Dirty Work

    In memory of the late great Norm McDonald, we decided to watch a movie that made a big imprint on Richard - Dirty Work. Does this cameo-loaded, Danny-Tanner-directed 90’s cult classic hold up?

    The Rookie

    The Rookie

    It’s been a while since we’ve done a baseball movie, so here we go! Remember when Dennis Quaid (brother of Randy Quaid) played a washed up pitcher? There’s a lot to unpack in this movie, so join up on the latest episode of The VCR Kids as we watch The Rookie.

pho7obug ,

Must listen!!!

Funny, informative and engaging. Love the movie selections as well!!!

ClapperGal ,

Play at 1.25 speed

I like the movies they pick. They truly bring back prior memories. Recommend. My recommendation would be to listen at 1.25 speed. The lady drags her speech too much that picking up the play speed makes it more smooth.

samyelsubu ,

only listened to one episode

they are not very funny or energetic
