In the latest episode of 15 | A Film Review Podcast, Luke and Dan continue to watch some of the most acclaimed films of 2023. The pair of films they review in full this week are BlackBerry and Anatomy of a Fall.

Matt Johnson's BlackBerry is a fictional account of the creation of the BlackBerry line of mobile phones by co-founders Douglas Fregin and Mike Lazaridis, and investor Jim Balsillie, played by Johnson, Jay Baruchel and Glenn Howerton respectively.

The Oscar-nominated Anatomy of a Fall is a French legal drama, directed by Justine Triet, that stars Sandra Hüller as a writer trying to prove her innocence in her husband's death. At the 76th Cannes Film Festival, it won the Palme d'Or and has also gained significant international success, winning two Golden Globes, and being nominated for seven BAFTAs and five Oscars.

Luke and Dan review: with this retina-burning, high-octane, all-out action "drama", it's comforting to see the Russo brothers targeting subtly following the Avengers; a poorly-titled film with a distinct lack of flammable sommeliers; and yet another Danish animated documentary surrounding an Afghan homosexual absconding to Scandinavia.

Luke and Dan review: the trollop Poseidon brings home from a night out; an audacious attempt by the 60 Minute Makeover crew to renovate Prince Andrew's Royal Lodge; and how Javier Bardem daringly leaps out of his Spanish comfort zone to play a Cuban.

Luke and Dan review: a tone-shifting sequel to E.T.; a partisan chant appealing against Mr Fawkes' incarceration; and a quasi-live action film that features more 2D than a swinging party.

Luke and Dan review: Tom Hardy's attempt to show his range by playing a pair of twins; Laura Thyme packing in sleuthing to pursue turnips full-time; and a prime example of how hyperinflation has ravaged the honest work of the black market infant-selling industry.

Luke and Dan review: Katherine Ryan performing stand-up on an African river; something so forgettable I can't be bothered sweating over an alternative title; and a film which is to face-transplants, what Jojo Rabbit is to Nazis.
