Run The Julias

"Just in time" for Disclosure Day, TV's Kevin & Jessi Kat go "Spielberg Mode" by talking about 1991's Peter Pan legasequel, Hook! For some of you, a landmark film from a master filmmaker. For others, you didn't watch it when you were a kid and think it sucks. What is the truth??? Only special guest Suze Webb can help us answer this question!

There is a movie. It came out in 2001. It stars Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, J.K. Simmons, David Krumholtz, Bob Balaban, and James Gandolfini as a gay hitman. For some reason, it is called The Mexican. And because of the burden we've given ourselves, we talked about it.
