Action Movie Hall of Fame

Matt and Dereck hit the theatre, then immediately hit the parking lot for instant-reaction to the new Robert Eggers movie, The Northman. 

Last week Matt and Dereck reviewed 1997's Con Air. This week, they're staying in the air AND staying in 1997 with a look at Air Force One. Does this Harrison Ford 90s action thriller have what it takes to land safely in the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or will it find itself barreling towards a watery grave?

What do you get when you fill a plane of America's most violent convicts? A fairly entertaining action movie. But can Nick Cage and his trusty side kick, his Southern accent, take this hummingbird to new heights, and place 1997's Con Air in the Action Movie Hall of Fame?

30 years ago, Roland Emmerich deployed Jean-Claude Van Damme in Universal Soldier. One year after the release of Terminator 2, Emmerich tried to make an approximation of the James Cameron classic. Does this sci-fi action movie have the life to make it into the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or is there not enough ice in the world to reanimate this corpse?

On this week's AMHOF, Matt and Dereck loop back to 2012 to revisit Looper. Will this movie get a golden ticket to the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or will it end up in a cornfield with a bag over it's head?

Matt and Dereck have reviewed a Robert Pattinson Batman movie (The Batman 2022), a Christian Bale Batman Movie (The Dark Knight Rises 2012) and now a Michael Keaton Batman movie. The guys will rank each Batman, Bruce Wayne, Catwoman, and Batman Jawline. They'll also decide if Batman Returns belongs in the Action Movie Hall of Fame, or if it will end up like the penguin: in the bottom of a sewer, never to be heard from again.

In 2012, Christopher Nolan wrapped up his 3-part Batman Trilogy with The Dark Knight Rises. Does this movie has what it takes to make the leap into the Action Movie Hall of Fame? Or will it be crippled by fear, and stuck in a pit for the rest of its life?

This week on the Action Movie Hall of Fame, Matt and Dereck go to the theatre to see The Batman, starring Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, and many more. They'll compare this Bat to the other Bat-men. Where does this movie rank among the best Bat movies? Where does Pattinson rank as Batman? And most importantly, where does Pattinson's jawline rank? 

In 2012, an under-appreciated action movie came out. It also lost a bunch of money at the box office.  Do Karl Urban and his chin have what it takes to make it to the top of action movie success and make it into the hall of fame, or will they find themselves landing face first in the attrium?

20 years ago, we got Spider-Man, 10 years ago, we got The Amazing Spider-Man, and 5 years ago, we got Spider-Man: Homecoming. This week Matt and Dereck wrap up the tangled web of reviews with Homecoming. How does it compare to the other Spider-Man movies? Where does it rank? Who was the best Spidey? And will Tom Holland and crew be nimble enough to climb into the Action Movie Hall of Fame?
