2 Guns

The Mikes are joining Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg as they fight their own departments, a cartel, the CIA, and each other in order to clear their names in the 2013 action-comedy "2 Guns".

Mike Butler and Mike Field discuss facts about the making of this film, the differences between Washington and Wahlberg's acting styles, and the ingredients needed to make a buddy cop movie work.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for the season 17 finale of Forgotten Cinema.

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
