M. Night Shyamalan’s "doozy" of a new movie inspires Adam and Josh to share their Top 5 Bad Movie Dads, featuring a rogue’s gallery of cinema’s lousiest fathers. Plus, a Golden Brick nod for “National Anthem,” and the Sidney Lumet Marathon continues with “Long Day’s Journey into Night," and more. 

This episode is presented by Regal Unlimited, the all-you-can-watch movie subscription pass that pays for itself in just two visits.
