Episode 232 - The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
The fires of history still burn bright, and the lads of Not A Bomb are here to stoke them with tales of valor and defiance. This week, the spotlight falls on the dashing duo of Mr. Boxer-Dropper himself, Henry Cavill, and his stalwart ally Alan Ritchson, as they bring to life The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare!
Directed by the ever-reliable Guy Ritchie, this cinematic triumph thrusts us into the daring exploits of Operation Postmaster—a secret mission that turned the tide against tyranny on the Spanish island of Fernando Po during the Second World War. With action and intrigue dripping from every frame, this film rekindles the spirit of resistance that defined the Greatest Generation.
Though the box office may not yet reflect its worth, the critical battle has been won, with audiences and critics alike singing its praises. Is this just another pretender in the crowded field of WWII adventures, or does it cement its place as a true monument to courage and cunning?
Join the ranks, watch the film, and decide for yourself—because history isn't just remembered, it's relived!
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is directed by Guy Ritchie and stars Henry Cavill, Eiza Gonzalez, Alan Ritchson, Alex Pettyfer, Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Babs Olusanmokun, Henrique Zaga, Til Schweiger, Henry Golding, and Cary Elwes.

Episode 231 - Borderlands
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Look out, Vault Hunters, ‘cause the “Bombs of 2024” have “clapped” their way over to Pandora for the hot mess express that is... Borderlands! Based on the billion-dollar game series we all know and love (or, like, kinda tolerate), this movie decides to take everything that makes Borderlands epic—yes, I'm talkin' guns, humor, awesome visuals—and toss it all in a dumpster fire! Hope you came for laughs? NOPE! Hoping for gun-toting, loot-lovin' action? AS IF! How about jaw-dropping visuals? PSYCH!
But don’t worry! Not a Bomb is here to help you trudge through this nightmare. We’ve got the awesome Mike McGranaghan from “The Aisle Seat” joining in on the chaos. Can this movie offer anything to the fans? Or is it just another facepalm on Pandora? You’ll have to tune in to find out!
Borderlands is directed by Eli Roth and stars Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, Edgar Ramirez, Ariana Greenblatt, Florian Munteanu, Gina Gershon, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
