BMFcast 589 – Evolver – Chekov’s Kaleidoscope
Evolver (1995) is a classic tale of boy plays VR game, boy meets girl who hates him, boy cheats to win VR tournament, boy wins robot, robot tries to kill boy, his mom, his kid sister, and the girl. It’s fun for the whole family, but is it Jox for the whole family?

BMFcast 583 – Spiders – Gen-X-Files
Spiders (2000) has Lana Parrilla as a conspiracy theory obsessed reporter who investigates a space shuttle crash that may contain government-mutated spiders. Spoiler: it does! Of course, low-budget hijinks ensue. Sure, it feels like a Sci Fi Channel X-Files knockoff, but can a third act that goes PLACES push this into the upper tier of Jox-worthy movies?

BMFcast 582 – Land of the Free – Jeff Sneakman
Land of the Free (1998) welcomes William Shatner to the BMFcast, along with decorated alumni Jeff Speakman. Speaks is the campaign manager(!) for The Shat, an politician with a militia and a secret network at his disposal. However, it’s another PM Entertainment joint, with the appropriate number of launched cars and painfully dispatched stuntmen. Is this all-too-relevant tale of political corruption Jox-worthy?

BMFcast Extra 215 – Zack Snyder’s Justice League
Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021) is finally a thing. Congrats internet, you did it I guess. And while we have wildly different opinions about this new cut of the 2017 film, we can both agree that we would prefer a smooth Superman.

BMFcast Extra 214 – Kickboxer 2
Kickboxer 2 (1991) might be director Albert Pyun’s most competent movie, and it still doesn’t make a lick of sense. A third Sloan brother appears and Thailand thinks that the way to regain their honor is to trick this kid into a fight.

BMFcast Extra 213 – Mercenary
Mercenary (1997) stars action superstar Olivier Gruner and John Ritter (!) in a bizarre revenge tale cobbled together from other, better action films. But if you’re a fan of dudes getting launched into the air after an explosion, or pointless subplots about shoes… this might be the movie for you!
