WOW, 31 episodes and we are still going? Why? This week Mike and Matt discuss another bad movie you should not go see, Skyscraper staring The Rock “Dwayne” Johnson. The boys talk about their love of Die Hard and why it is a Christmas movie no matter what Bruce Willis says! They also discuss how Skyscraper blatantly ripped it off without question. Was Mike able to keep his Marvel Cinematic Universe streak alive, of course! There is also even more talk about the unlimited movie services such as MoviePass, AMC A-List, and Cinemark Movie Club. There is no rant on this one just a regular review of a bad movie.
Matt and Mike both found this movie to be nothing special. It was boring, a giant copy of great movies, a bad story, (seeing a pattern here?) just to name a few of its issues. Mike gives Skyscraper a 2 out of 5 Reels. Matt rated it a little bit higher (purely based on seeing hottie Neve Campbell on the big screen again) with a 2.5 out of 5 Reels.
