Finally, a movie podcast that takes place in a car! Pete and Trevor are movie fans with nothing better to do. Come along with us on our drive to and from the cinema. On the drive there, we’ll be discussing general background on the movie and talk about our expectations. On the drive back again, you will hear spoiler talk about our first impressions of the movie having just exited the theatre. Will we see a “stone-cold masterpiece”? Will we see a stinker to end all stinkers? Will we run into traffic and miss the trailers? We’ll answer all these questions and more!

The Smashing Machine / The Last Boy Scout

Pete and Trevor step into the octagon, well mostly a boxing ring, to see Benny Safdie’s The Smashing Machine, starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. The A24 produced movie focuses on the life Mark Kerr, an early MMA and UFC fighter, and marks a clear transition in Johnson’s career to more serious roles. Does the gambit pay off?

Continuing our Project Last Action Heroes, we discuss the career of Bruce Willis through the lens of Tony Scott’s The Last Boyscout.
