On This Week’s Show: Neil has his tail between his legs because he hasn’t seen any movies this week, but he still maintains that he is awesome. Kevin enjoyed a nice dose of Zefron at the multiplex, then caught last-minute showings of State of Play and Crank: High Voltage. Guest film critic Chris Alexis from 7mpictures.com joins Kevin for a middle segment to spew out some hatred for Crank. Later in the show, Kevin sings praises for the cancellation of The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Neil gives some love to Inglorious Basterds. And everyone sighs when Zac Efron bats those baby blues.
Films Reviewed this Week: 17 Again, Crank: High Voltage and State of Play.
