O.K. Video Criminally Unknown? 4 The Last of the Finest

O.K. Video ·

2025/04/16

Ryan and Nathan are at odds on this one. Is it a delightful rage fantasy against the Reagan administration and their scapegoating of Oliver North, or is it a Thin Blue Line-championing, tone deaf celebration of hypocrites who are far too willing to turn their weapons on their fellow officers? The Last of the Finest is the name and it features Brian Dennehy, Joe Pantoliano, Jeff Fahey and Bill Paxton as an elite unit of skull busters who find themselves alone in their crusade against a corrupt

O.K. Video Criminally Unknown? 3 Homicide

Nathan is having a minor bout of mania in this episode and is pretty angry at "The Man", so this discussion about David Mamet's Homicide is a little pessimistic. It's a pretty lively discussion though, so enjoy.If you'd like to send in questions for a future show, or have something to say on behalf of Zionism, email ryan@okvideo.ca or nathan@okvideo.ca We are also on Hive and Instagram, okvideopodcast, and BlueSky, OKVideo.

O.K. Video Criminally Unknown? 2 Blown Away

O.K. Video ·

2025/04/01

Ireland. A land of tradition. And bombs. Hollywood takes a crack at exploring the Irish experience with broad stereotypes and crusty accents in Blown Away, a mad bomber movie with a shot of whiskey. Sorry, that's the type of stereotypical character trait you will find here. Also, this movie came out AFTER Speed, so it was doomed from the start.If you'd like to send us questions, we can create answers.

O.K. Video John Carpenter's Batch 4 The Thing

O.K. Video ·

2025/01/07

In the summer of 1982, there were two films from Universal Pictures featuring an alien visiting our planet. One was a cute little botanist named E.T. whose film set box office records. The other was about a very different sort of alien, one that brought out mistrust and terror in all it encountered. The Thing. That movie made...less money, but it eventually found its audience and Ryan and Nathan are two of them.If you'd like to send us questions for future shows, email ryan@okvideo.ca or
