Awards season is in full force on the latest episode of The Other Guys film podcast.

Patrick Wilson and Tom Beasley start by discussing the announcement of the 2015 Oscars nominations including the big surprises and the films that unjustly missed out.

Then, there are reviews of Liam Neeson action sequel Taken 3, Oscar-baiting true crime drama Foxcatcher, triumph over adversity war movie Unbroken and Michael Keaton-starring offbeat dramedy Birdman.

There’s also a look ahead to this week’s film releases (podcast was recorded on Thursday), including drummer drama Whiplash, wartime romance Testament of Youth, gritty Oscar-grabbing action movie American Sniper and Reese Witherspoon’s awards-nommed Wild.

We will be back next week on The Other Guys film podcast with reviews of the week’s films and a look at the biggest news breaking in the film industry.

Our royalty-free music on this episode of The Other Guys film podcast is ‘Life of Riley’ by Kevin MacLeod.
