#168 – The Summer of Sly: Cliffhanger

Children of the Adams ·

2023/06/23

On this week's show, the Summer of Sly continues with a look at 1993's Cliffhanger starring Sylvester Stallone, Michael Rooker, and John Lithgow. For a box office blockbuster about a mid-air heist gone wrong turned cat and mouse action thriller set in the Rocky Mountains, it's quite boring at times. And outright bad at others. Plus, thoughts on Star Wars Rebels and more. If you like what you hear, please subscribe. Enjoy!

2023/06/07

On this week's show, the Summer of Sly begins with a look at 1986's Cobra starring Sylvester Stallone, Brigitte Nielsen, and Brian Thompson. This high octane and often confounding cult classic was produced by the Cannon group, and a few of their signature tropes appear in the movie: over the top action, super tough and muscly star, pretty damsel in need of rescue, and a muddled plot. Plus, the backstory of how the movie was made is almost as interesting as the movie itself, including a rather weird

#166 – Star Wars Smorgasbord

Children of the Adams ·

2023/05/17

On this week's show, it's all Star Wars. From live action to animated, we meander throughout the vast amount of interconnected tales from a galaxy far, far away. Particular highlights being the third season finale of The Mandalorian, Rebels, and Jedi: Survivor. As always, if you like what you hear, be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!

#165 – Demolition Man

Children of the Adams ·

2023/04/20

On this week's show, from the decade that arguably defined the action movie genre, we take a look at 1993's Demolition Man starring Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Sandra Bullock, and quite a few other famous faces. Boasting a very good cast, hard hitting action, and despite Rob Schneider, some genuinely funny moments, this film is easily one of Stallone's most entertaining movies. As always, if you like what you hear, be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!

#164 – Top Gun: Maverick

Children of the Adams ·

2023/04/12

On this week's show, we take a look at 2022's Top Gun: Maverick. Starring Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, and Val Kilmer, this movie is overstuffed with wildly cool high-flying action, heartfelt moments, excruciatingly slow and unnecessary plot points, a few things you've seen elsewhere, and the biggest staple of his films; Tom Cruise running at a moderately swift pace. Plus, news out of this year's Star Wars Celebration and more. Be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!

#163 – Bloodsport: A Live Review

Children of the Adams ·

2023/04/04

On this week's show, we’re trying something new. This will be a live review. “A live review? What is that?”, you ask? Well, for the first time ever, we watch a movie together, while recording the ridiculous thoughts that meander into our minds. So, this will not be a traditional review, and it will only make sense if you watch the movie right alongside us. And what movie could possibly warrant such a momentous occasion? For that, we turn to one of the Cannon Group’s biggest cult classics, and one

#162 – Action Jackson (1988)

Children of the Adams ·

2023/03/17

On this week's show, we take a look at 1988's Action Jackson. Starring Carl Weathers, Craig T. Nelson, Vanity, and Sharon Stone, this movie is a non-stop thrill ride that features plenty of over the top action sequences, classic one-liners, and a very middle-aged guy doing karate. Plus, you're likely to recognize a lot of faces from other 80s movies; including one that looks exactly like Huey Lewis (minus The News). However, it was in fact, not Huey Lewis. Be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!

#161 – Iron Eagle (1986)

Children of the Adams ·

2023/03/07

On this week's show, we take a look at 1986's first entry in the fighter pilot genre, Iron Eagle (Sorry Top Gun). Starring Louis Gossett Jr., Jason Gedrick, and David Suchet, this movie's unintentionally hilarious plot is only overshadowed by its over the top performances, but at least it moves at a swift pace. Be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!

#160 – Bearded Feet of Fury: A Chuck Norris Double...

Children of the Adams ·

2023/02/23

On this week's show, we’ve got a double shot of America’s mythical, bearded karate man from the 80s, Chuck Norris, with reviews of Code of Silence, and one of his many movies produced by the Canon Group, Missing in Action 2: The Beginning. This is technically a first-time Chuck Norris-ing for one of our hosts, and it was quite a noteworthy experience. Be sure to subscribe. Enjoy!
