This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris pay homage to the late Gene Hackman by discussing his co-starring role with Will Smith in the 1998 Tony Scott thriller, Enemy of the State. Smith plays Robert Clayton Dean, a labor lawyer in Washington D.C. who inadvertently comes into possession of evidence of the NSA Assistant Director Thomas Reynold (Jon Voight) overseeing the murder of a congressman. When the NSA believes Dean is hiding the tape from them, they put him under surveillance and destroy his life, forcing him on the run. He eventually finds help in Brill (Hackman), an investigator Dean previously contracted, a former NSA agent now living off the grid. Zach and Chris discuss Jon Voight's star-studded team of goons, including Jack Black and Seth Green; the pivotal importance of an NEC TurboExpress console; sci-fi video manipulation software; how the movie could be a pseudo-sequel to The Conversation; and more. You can buy or rent Enemy of the State on platforms like AppleTV, Prime Video , and Fandango at Home. Next week, we're heading underground with Stallone in Daylight, as the disaster movie is getting a 4K release. We want to hear your comments and feedback.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris are on the case to discuss the first adaptation of Lee Child's Jack Reacher series, the 2012 Tom Cruise movie, as season 3 of the Amazon series just kicked off. Based on the Jack Reacher novel One Shot, a troubled Army sniper, James Barr (Joseph Sikora), is arrested for killing five people in Pittsburgh.

Instead, he uncovers a larger plot involving a shady construction company run by a sinister man known as "The Zek" (Werner Herzog). Zach and Chris discuss Cruise's Reacher compared to Alan Ritchson's, Herzog's fantastic villain performance, overly complicated criminal plots, intense speeches about freedom, and more.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris celebrate Valentine's Day with the 1981 slasher classic My Bloody Valentine . Filmed in Canada, My Bloody Valentine came out as the 80s slasher boom kicked off, following the success of movies like Halloween and Friday the 13th. In the town of Valentine Bluffs, a tragedy at the local mine during a Valentine's Day dance results in miner Harry Warden becoming a cannibalistic psychopath. He kills the mine's supervisors and threatens the town that if they ever have a Valentine's Day dance again, he will go on another killing spree. The town tempts fate 20 years later and plans a new dance, and, as predicted, people start getting brutally killed by a killer in a miner's uniform. Zach and Chris try to figure out how old everyone is supposed to be, if the Valentine's Day dance offers any financial benefits to the town, Moosehead Lager, the censorship that took out much of the gory kills, how it compares to the 2009 remake, and more. You can watch My Bloody Valentine on Shudder, PlutoTV, and AMC+. Next week, we're watching the 1988 horror movie Monkey Shines to get into the mindset of The Monkey, which hits theaters next weekend.

For the final Everything Actioncast of 2024, Zach and Chris are getting locked up with Tango & Cash, which celebrated its 35th anniversary earlier this week. Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell co-star as Ray Tango and Gabriel Cash, two cops from opposite sides of Los Angeles with drastically different styles but an equal amount of massive drug busts. Unknown to both cops, crime kingpin Yves Perret (Jack Palance) oversees all the criminal enterprises they are disrupting, and he plots first to destroy their reputations with a false murder charge and then send them to be killed in prison. The duo has to reluctantly team up first to escape prison and clear their names. Zach and Chris discuss how much of a disaster this movie was to make behind the scenes, how Jack Palance's main weakness is an obsession with theatricality, try to figure out what the theme of the club is that Teri Hatcher's Kiki Tango works at, the insane James Bondesque super RV in the climax and more.

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris return to Pandora to discuss 2009's Avatar, which is celebrating its 15th anniversary. Directed by James Cameron, Sam Worthington is Jake Sully, a paraplegic Marine who heads to the planet Pandora to pilot the "Avatar" of his murdered scientist brother. The Avatars are genetically grown bodies that are human and Na'vi hybrids, the Na'vi being the indigenous species on Pandora, and that person's mind can be transferred between bodies. Jake joins a science team led by Dr. Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) and eventually stumbles into learning the ways of the Na'vi from the daughter of a tribal leader, Neytiri (Zoe Saldana). Learning to love the nature of Pandora and the ways of the Na'vi (and Neytiri), Jake is pulled between the human and Na'vi worlds as a battle between the two species becomes imminent. Zach and Chris talk about what Unobtainium is used for, how Jake stupidly blunders his way upward, the badass villainy of Stephen Lang, the bizarre lore of Disney's World of Pandora, and more.
