  • For Your Eyes Only

    For Your Eyes Only
    Jan 8 2025

    After the excesses of Moonraker, James Bond was in need of a course correction. For Your Eyes Only proved that the series could come back to earth and still be successful. Some fans will tell you that this is Roger Moore's finest entry. Guest Tom Paradiso returns to the podcast to weigh in.

  • Entrapment

    Entrapment
    Dec 31 2024

    It dips beneath the lasers. Entrapment was the last hit of Sean Connery's long career, in which he was paired up with the lovely Catherine Zeta-Jones. This caper did well with audiences but not critics. Underrated? We'll try to figure it out with first time guest Ivan Calixto.
