Welcome to Get To The Chedda - where Malcolm Martin and I dissect the action movies that defined the 80s and 90s.. It's a time before Charlie Sheen became the highest-paid TV actor in history—before the tiger blood and the goddesses—he starred in what should've been his Top Gun moment. Instead, Navy SEALs (1990) is a masterclass in wasted potential, questionable decisions, and possibly the worst jingoistic dialogue in action movie history.Matt Bourne and Malcolm Martin deliver a scorched earth, 1-hour deep dive into why this Michael Biehn and Charlie Sheen military thriller is everything wrong with trying to cash in on Top Gun's success. From proto-tiger blood performances to "Would I Have Got The Flag If We Were Married?"—arguably the worst line in action cinema—we're tearing this overrated 90s film apart.🎬 NEXT EPISODE: COBRA - Everything an 80s action film should be. Subscribe so you don't miss it.💬 Drop a comment: Are we too harsh on Charlie and this movie? Or have you been waiting 35 years for someone to finally say Navy SEALs is overrated garbage?
