For our final film review episode, we dig into a series that features many of the things we love – treasure hunting adventure, heists, fantastic supporting characters, and a simplicity/restraint that we rarely see in big budget movies today. Come join us for a fun discussion about a franchise that may be small, but is absolutely mighty.

We’re going back to the beginning (of the movies at least) to start off three weeks of celebrating this outstanding spy series. Tom Cruise instantly becomes the iconic IMF agent Ethan Hunt, we learn about the power of masks, get to see exploding gum, and kick-off a world in which practically everyone goes rogue at some point. This is a very 90s and very De Palma entry in the franchise, but remains one of our most favorites.

We move on to film number six in our coverage of John Grisham story adaptations this week and it’s among one of our host’s favorites. We both think Matt Damon does an excellent job of playing the typical young idealistic attorney protagonist and appreciate a straightforward story with a clear “good guy” and “bad guy”. It’s also nice to see some of a master director’s directorial touch, even if it’s pretty subtle. Enjoy the conversation.

This week we enlist the help of listener J.B. Huffman to celebrate the start of football season by discussing one of our favorite movies featuring the sport, and our first of two episodes on films that adapted Buzz Bissinger’s best-selling book “Friday Night Lights.” There’s a lot more than just teenage antics going on in this film, and much of what it calls out about Texas HS football culture was ahead of its time.
