224. The Hunter (right click OR click)

Mark and Ian talk about Steve McQueen’s final film.  He plays a bounty hunter which sounds cool.  In the end the movie is sort of a mess of comedy, action, and drama based on the life of a real bounty hunter.

216. LadyHawke (right click OR click)

Mark and Ian talk about the Donner disaster (too harsh?  probably) LadyHawke (pronounced “lady” “Hockey”).  Though the film has its problems, it does look quite good in places.  And that’s probably because they went to real places to shoot it.  Thumbs down to green screen environments.
