Action moves are a good-ass time. They truly are. Explosions? Improbably stunts? Mysteriously stretchy leather clothing? GIVE IT TO US. Our taste in action movies is very specific. When we like something, we LOVE it. And when we don't like something, we feel frustrated by it. Mission Impossible: Fallout? LOVE it. Charlies Angels: Full Throttle? ...not so much. (Except Ronnie, who inexplicably DOES like Charlie's Angel's. but she's not here writing this, so TOO BAD) What makes an action movie compelling? Can we reconcile our feminist politics with the hyper-masculine genre? Have you seen that scene in Fallout where Tom Cruise breaks his ankle? Join us as we dig deep into the intricacies of car chases, mysterious encoded messages, rooftop karate, and moments where someone pulls a knife our of their boot and throws it across a room and it stops exactly in front of someone else's face and then there's a weird knowing look like "oh yeah i just did that i'm a knife maestro".... Do you have thoughts on action movies? WE WANT EM: instagram.com/citizenjanepod twitter.com/citizenjanepod citizenjanepodcast@gmail.com rate us on itunes, we think? honestly not totally sure what that's meant to do, but all the other pods ask it so. why not. give us a star or two.
