From the stunningly detailed rendering of Avatar's Pandora through to the digital erasure of Arnie Hammer's testicles in Call Me By Your Name, the special and visual effects people have been bringing movie magic into the film making process for almost as long as the medium itself has existed. You probably won't find anything as magnificent as these examples in this weeks Top 5 Worst Special Effects.

This weeks main feature is a darkly comic study of grief, loss and anger in writer/producer/director Martin McDonagh's 2017 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. With award winning performances from Francis McDormand and Sam Rockwell, a strong supporting cast including Woody Harrelson, Peter Dinklage and Lucas Hedges and a BAFTA and Golden Globe Award winning screenplay which never goes precisely where you think it will, this was of course a big hit with the Bad Dads. Spoiler Alert.

We round out the show with a review of Netflix's pre-teen superhero movie We Can Be Heroes in which a multifaceted cast participate in a story set within Robert Rodriguez's sleazy and violent Machete universe. The Mandalorian's Pedro Pascal sleep walks his way through this convoluted and inept garbage that you would have to be genuinely moronic to enjoy, which no doubt proves why all of our children loved it.

Whilst our new dystopian society now forbids physical contact of any kind, we are allowed to engage with you digitally and we'd very much like to do so. So come find us on Twitter, Facebook or via email at baddadsjsy@gmail.com - especially if you're from Spotify and you want to sign us to a Joe Rogan style exclusivity deal which results in us all becoming multi-millionaires. Thanks.

Until next time, we remain...
