An over-the-hill hitman faces off against a younger clone of himself.

This Ang Lee directed action flick is better than the critics reviews when it first came out. We had fun with this movie. We hope you do too.

1995's The American President

A widowed U.S. President running for reelection and an environmental lobbyist fall in love. It's all above-board, but "politics is perception," and sparks fly anyway.

We're joined by new friend of the show Melissa Apple. We tried, and failed, not to compare this to the West Wing.

2020's The Midnight Sky

This post-apocalyptic tale follows Augustine, a lonely scientist in the Arctic, as he races to stop Sully and her fellow astronauts from returning home to a mysterious global catastrophe.

2019's Noelle

Santa's daughter must take over the family business when her father retires and her brother, who is supposed to inherit the Santa role, gets cold feet.

A cute Christmas story, that doesn't quite live up to the comparison to Elf.

2020's Christmas Chronicles 2

Kate Pierce, now a cynical teen, is unexpectedly reunited with Santa Claus when a mysterious troublemaker threatens to cancel Christmas - forever.

This Christmas movie, not as good as the first, has some fun moments and some heart.

2020's Enola Holmes

When Enola Holmes-Sherlock's teen sister-discovers her mother missing, she sets off to find her, becoming a super-sleuth in her own right as she outwits her famous brother and unravels a dangerous conspiracy around a mysterious young Lord.

This Netflix original that kind of messes up Sherlock Holmes, but Enola is really good.
