This week, we revisit Jackie Chan's breakthrough hit Rumble In The Bronx. Directed by Stanley Tong, the story revolves around Ma Hon Keung, a Hong Kong police officer, who travels to New York to attend his uncle's wedding. While there, he agrees to help a young lady (Anita Mui) manage the shop his uncle has just sold to her, and in doing so, invites trouble from both a local gang and an organized crime syndicate. Facing trouble from all sides, Keung must use his incredible kung fu skills to save the shop, his new friends, and himself.

It's only been five years, but Tim Miller's live-action adaptation of Deadpool made such an impact on us that we had to take the opportunity to talk about it. Based on the popular Marvel comic by Rob Liefield and Fabian Nicieza, Deadpool centers on Wade Wilson, a freelance mercenary who unwittingly submits to a horrific experiment that unlocks his mutant X gene. The process endows him with remarkable healing abilities, but also horribly disfigures him. Assumed dead, Wade re-emerges as Deadpool. His only mission- find the man who did this to him, and get him to reverse the process...or kill him. Starring Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, TJ Miller, and Leslie Uggams, Deadpool stands out, not only as a great comic-book movie, but also as a solid action-comedy and one of the best projects to come out the Fox X-Men Universe.

In our first lookback episode of the year, we explore the genius of Jonathan Demme's masterpiece, Silence of the Lambs. Based on the 1988 novel by Thomas Harris, Silence of the Lambs follows FBI trainee Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster), as she is recruited to obtain the aid of imprisoned serial killer Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) in hopes of catching another killer who is at large. Released on February 14, 1991, the film almost immediately received widespread acclaim, winning five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director (Jonathan Demme), Best Actor (Anthony Hopkins), Best Actress (Jodie Foster), and Best Adapted Screenplay (Ted Tally). In addition, it remains in the AFI's list of 100 Greatest Films of All Time.

In our last lookback episode of 2020, we review the Coen Brothers' classic comedy-adventure O Brother, Where Art Thou. Loosely based on Homer's The Odyssey, 'O Brother' tells the story of three escaped convicts in depression-era Mississippi, who embark on a quest to find a hidden treasure. Along the way, they meet a host of interesting characters while evading the grasp of a sadistic sheriff, who is in relentless pursuit of the trio. Released in late 2000, the film would go on to earn Oscar nominations for Best Cinematography and Best Screenplay, as well as win George Clooney the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor that same year.
