Tv/Movie Rewind

The Last Boy Scout (1991)


Listen Later

Today Matt & Todd discuss Tony Scott's 1991 Crime-Action-Thriller: The Last Boy Scout

Written by Shane Black

Starring: Bruce Willis, Damon Wayans, Chelsea Field, Noble Willingham and Taylor Negron.


First seen by us decades ago, this rewatch had more going for it than we remembered.

Very 90s, very macho, angsty-angry, but very funny at times; punctuated with excellent action sequences and performances, The Last Boy Scout remains popular among many genre fans, including these two.

We were expecting at most a remembrance of a pretty fun film of our teens, and we got that but saw a lot that we probably missed.


Thank you all for listening!
