Festivus Series | THE REF

The Ref is something of a Christmas outlier; its title does not suggest a holiday-themed topic, the poster artwork fails to spread any holiday cheer, and overall it's a strange culmination of ideas. However, it was also a Martin holiday tradition,so it made sense to finally tackle this Denis Leary-starring vehicle for our final film in 2025's Festivus Series.

We're also drinking Modelo's Noche Especial lager for this festive occasion!

We hope you enjoyed our Festivus Series this year! We will be back - either for a New Year's episode if we get the chance, or else we'll be seeing you in 2026 for standard film coverage!
