Episode 213: The Crew’s investigating a murder in the deep racist South while watching, In the Heat of the Night. This 1967 film was made during the civil rights movement and deals with racism better than lots of modern films. This is a masterpiece of a message film, wrapped in a genre story (murder mystery). The film won 5 Oscars six days after Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. The Crew discusses…

Episode 212: The Crew’s giving each other Macho High Fives while discussing Tango & Cash. Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell have great chemistry together as two LA cops framed for murder. The film was a box-office hit; which was welcomed news to Warner Bros after a troubled production. Three different directors were hired and fired, and Stallone did uncredited rewrites on set. Despite the revolving door of creative talent, the film has a constant comedic tone. The Crew discusses…

Episode 211: The Crew’s waiting by the phone for a ransom call, while watching Brett Ratner’s Rush Hour. This film was a box office hit and spawned two successful sequels. Jackie Chan already brought some of his Hong Kong martial arts films to the US theatrical market; but this was his first US financed hit. Chris Tucker became a hot talent after Rush Hour, building his audience after standout performances in Friday and The Fifth Element. Rush Hour looks great and the music stands out. The Crew discusses more…

Episode 210: The Crew’s searching for a lost Cheyenne tribe in the Oxbow, while watching Tab Murphy’s 1995 film, Last of the Dogmen. This film was a box office bomb, and has largely been forgotten. Not the film’s fault; both production companies went bankrupt within two months of the films release. This caused the theatrical release window too shorten and reduce the number of prints shipped to theaters (less than 1,000 screens in 1995). The composer, cinematographer, cast, and first-time director delivered a fun film. The Crew discusses….

Episode 209: The Crew’s falling in love with Brad Pitt’s long flowing hair in Edward Zwick’s Legends of the Fall. This film was Pitt’s first time delivering a leading man performance in a big budget studio film. And the box office dollars earned helped establish Brad Pitt as a movie star. But the supporting cast may steal the show (Hopkins, Ormond, and Quinn standout). Director, Ed Zwick continued his epic heartfelt style of storytelling after his Oscar-winning debut film, Glory. John Toll’s cinematography is breathtaking, and Oscar-winning. The Crew discusses…

Episode 208: The Crew’s running from a pair of man-eating lions while discussing Stephen Hopkins’ The Ghost and the Darkness. The film had a pair of stars (Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer), an Oscar winning screenwriter and cinematographer (William Goldman and Vilmos Zsigmond), and was based on a crazy true story. Despite all this talent, the film wasn’t a box-office hit. And the Crew has different opinions on how well the story and tone work.

Episode 207: The Crew’s running in the forest with a sexy Daniel Day-Lewis while discussing Michael Mann’s The Last of the Mohicans. This was the box-office success that took Michael Mann from TV (Miami Vice) to big budget films. Daniel Day-Lewis was fresh off his first Best Actor Oscar (he won three throughout his career). The soundtrack, cinematography, editing, and every performance are prefect. But the Crew debates whether the movie is more than a beautiful adventure film.

Episode 206: The Crew’s trying to escape the Motaba virus while watching Wolfgang Petersen’s Outbreak. The film was a box-office hit in 1995, and had a loaded cast with hot newcomers (Kevin Spacey, Patrick Dempsey, and Cuba Gooding Jr.) and veteran talent (Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo, Donald Sutherland, and Morgan Freeman). Wolfgang Petersen treats the story like a disaster film, which makes it entertaining but ultimately unrealistic. The Crew discusses…
