Episode 42

Wednesday, November 19, 2025 • Duration 01:40:58

We've alluded to our love of this movie for a long time... It's time to look 2 minutes ahead, and talk about the incomparable NEXT.

Nicolas Cage stars as Shy, Socially Awkward Nicolas Cage. Usually that would work, for some reason it doesn't here. Director Lee Tamahori, who has proven himself as an incredibly talented director, also seems to be having an off day. Jessica Biel and Julianne Moore are there to raise the bar, but can't save this movie from itself.

It's a real mystery why this movie doesn't work and yet is one of the most enjoyable films in history. Greg and Joe can't stop watching and talking about it.... So where is the magic that makes this amazing? They find that one of their favorite editors, Christian Wagner, brought much of the magic. Cinematographer David Tattersall does some arresting work. Production designer William Sandell brings his A-Game. Writer Gary Goldman wrestled with tough source material, and brought some contemporary ideas to the script. Great people, above and below the line, make this a sneakily great movie, one that we will rewatch forever.

We do a lot of episodes for them. This one is for us.

Episode 41

Wednesday, November 5, 2025 • Duration 01:34:51

TENET

Episode 31

Wednesday, June 18, 2025 • Duration 01:32:18

Stuffed with whatever you call the opposite of explanation, Tenet is one of the biggest and best movies of our time by one of our biggest and best filmmakers alive. Is it kind of heartless? Does Sir Michael Caine forget his usual Nolan exposition duties? Is it great and bad? Now is the time for this conversation.

Episode 30

Wednesday, June 4, 2025 • Duration 02:03:57

Greg & Joe scrap their episode plans to immediately react to the 8th Mission:Impossible movie. It's the conversation that needed to happen about a movie 1.5 weeks old... That's about 30 years newer than the typical Great Bad Movie® 😀

Mission:Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1, Pt. 2

Episode 29

Thursday, May 22, 2025 • Duration 01:05:22

The very conversation that needed a 2nd part, Greg & Joe's discussion of the 7th Mission:Impossible film might be considered treason. Nothing could be more exciting than a new Mission:Impossible movie coming out this week, so it was time to do a deep dive on the previous film, Dead Reckoning Part 1.

The Accountant

Episode 28

Wednesday, May 7, 2025 • Duration 01:35:52

What if Jason Bourne was also TurboTax? Ben Affleck is an autistic math savant who moonlights as a lethal assassin and part-time financial consultant for warlords. And you know what? One of the hosts of this show loves this movie.

Secret trailer arsenals? Check. Hidden identities? Double check. Anna Kendrick showing up to save the movie? Triple check with a spreadsheet.

This is peak Great Bad Movie material: it’s serious about being serious, but somewhere deep in its Excel-loving soul, it knows it’s kind of ridiculous.

True Lies

Episode 27

Wednesday, April 23, 2025 • Duration 01:56:20

30 years later, it hasn't aged a day! (Just kidding.)

If you can get past Janice to join us for this episode, and that’s a BIG if… Greg and Joe’s conversation will feel a lot like your missions in Cairo: A cake walk, thanks to the training. So hop on your horse, walk it into an elevator, and get on our level 😀

It’s time for you to start lying to your spouse, and then tell them the truth, so that they can join you in your secret life. In the end, and this is important, you’ll probably dress up and dance the tango together, because that’s adorable. True Lies is 30 years old, so it’s finally time for the conversation that needed to be had.

Fast Five

Episode 26

Wednesday, April 9, 2025 • Duration 02:01:58

We’re celebrating our 1st anniversary with the turbo-charged, melodrama-soaked, gravity-defying classic that redefined what a Great Bad Movie truly is. Fast Five is the Citizen Kane of car-based heist movies.

We saved this one for a special occasion, because Fast Five isn’t just any movie — it’s a beautifully chaotic mix of telenovela-level emotional showdowns, dialogue that sounds philosophical but means almost nothing, and incredible action sequences with things you've never seen before. Is it absurd? Absolutely. Is it brilliant? Unquestionably. Is it a little bad? Ummmmmm, all we can say is we love every second of it.

Come celebrate with us as we toast to one year of great cinematic achievements, and honor the film that somehow made dragging a vault through Rio with two Dodge Chargers look cooler than it has any right to.
