CINEMISSES!
Two buddies banter with each other while talking about some of the movies that they never got around to checking out. They'll discuss what's great, not so great or is just plain awful about these movies that one or the other of them somehow managed not to see. Anybody can make a podcast about movies they HAVE seen, this about ones we HAVEN'T seen.

In this episode, Matt and Tug dive deep into the intricacies of the film John Wick, exploring its characters, plot, and the unique approach to capturing action sequences that set it apart from typical action movies. They discuss the physical toll on Keanu Reeves during filming, touching on how – together – Matt and Tug could not perform a single one of the stunts that Keanu seems to take for granted. They discuss the significance of the characters' backstories, the welcome lack of exposition dumps, and the film's portrayal of violence as a "ballet of blood." The hosts appreciate the film's tight narrative structure and the world-building surrounding the Continental, a sanctuary for assassins, which adds depth to the storyline. All in all, unless you want to suffer the wrath of John "Baba Yaga" Wick, you need to slide across a coin and listen right away!
