The Countdown

Episode 129: Top 10 Acting Debuts / American Assassin


Listen Later

After the horrors and resultant bad dreams of the last Ep, the guys this week went for something much nicer as they targeted the very best film acting debuts. Could this be the Countdown where Paul and Wayne agree on just about everything? Will they have the same Number Ones? Or do they turn on each other right when you thought this was going to be the nicest Ep of the show ever?
Well, no. Mainly because one of them disliked American Assassin, this week's feature review, while the other inexplicably liked it. (See if you can guess who is who ...) But that's all part of the fun, right?
