"I beat you to the buyers, and now I've beat you to the mark. I'm sorry, but I think I picked the wrong guy to be my hero." - Miguel Bain (Antonio Banderas)
On this week's episode Craig and Scott tackle possibly the most frustrating film of the season "Assassins." A film that gets off to a splendid start only to get progressively worse throughout its running time (seriously the third act is soul sapping).
Over the course of episode you will hear us talk about how the Wachowski's disowned this film, how 1995 seemed to be the year of the hacker and just inept Stallone is at playing brooding and mysterious. Plus, we talk about how the film wastes Julianne Moore, how Antonio Banderas is by far the best thing in the movie and why we think his character may be Wolverine in disguise.
Elsewhere in the episode we talk about the films cool but random soundtrack (This is not the type of film you would expect to hear Portishead), perform our now routine recasting of the film and try to work out how the Official Assassins Global Ranking system works.
"All '90s Action, All The Time" is produced by Scott Murphy, Kyle Hintz and Craig Draheim. Music by Elyssa Vulpes. Editing by Scott Murphy.
