Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb. This is the podcast where we go back and reexamine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. On this week’s episode, the guys are joined by Sammy from the GGTMC and Jose from Watch/Skip+ to discuss 1991’s action comedy - Hudson Hawk. Starring the legendary Bruce Willis as our titular character, Hudson Hawk leans heavy into the comedy and the works of Leonardo da Vinci. Yeah, this film is pretty bonkers. Audiences and critics didn’t “catch the Hawk” on its initial release but the film has become a cult hit. Did our podcast crew enjoy Bruno’s vanity project and laugh at all of the silly quips? Or did somebody side with the general audience and find this movie to be a chore to sit through? Download and find out!
