Now Showing - Back in Action

The Mikes are going on a mission with Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz in her first role in over a decade as they navigate the perils of being fugitive spies and even worse...parents to two teenagers!

Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss the new Netflix film, "Back in Action" directed by Seth Gordon. Listen in as they talk about the chemistry of the leads in the film, the tropes they avoid and the ones they lean too hard into, and whether Foxx and Diaz are able to elevate this film above normal Netflix original standards.

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