3 Guys and a Flick - Movie Reviews

Houston, we have a podcast. This week, 3 Guys and a Flick blasts off with Michael Bay’s gloriously over-the-top 1998 disaster epic, *Armageddon*. The guys dig into the all-star cast, wild production stories, unforgettable action sequences, Aerosmith-fueled soundtrack, and enough scientific inaccuracies to make NASA break into a cold sweat.

From Bruce Willis’ heroic Harry Stamper and Ben Affleck’s questionable astronaut training to Steve Buscemi’s scene-stealing Rockhound, the crew shares favorite moments, behind-the-scenes trivia, and plenty of laughs along the way. They also reflect on the film’s surprisingly emotional finale before delivering their signature ratings and listener feedback.

So grab your space suit, fire up the drill, and don’t miss a thing, because the end of the world has never been this entertaining.

The Sun is dying, humanity is freezing, and eight astronauts are riding a massive stellar bomb toward mankind’s last chance for survival. This week, Don and Ken board the Icarus II to review Danny Boyle’s visually stunning sci-fi thriller, *Sunshine*.

We break down the crew’s dangerous decision to investigate the long-lost Icarus I, the ethical dilemmas that threaten the mission, catastrophic mistakes, onboard sabotage, and the heartbreaking sacrifices required to save the world. We also explore the film’s stacked cast, breathtaking visuals, haunting score, and controversial shift from tense character-driven science fiction into full-blown horror.

Can the crew reignite the Sun, or will humanity’s final hope burn up before reaching its destination? Grab your sunscreen and join 3 Guys and a Flick for the good, the bad, and the absurd of *Sunshine*. Spoilers ahead!

The name’s Bond… James Bond.

Join Don and Professor Ken (while Jon is mysteriously MIA) as they break down outrageous action sequences, behind-the-scenes stories, unforgettable gadgets, Michelle Yeoh’s scene-stealing performance as Wai Lin, and whether Brosnan’s second Bond outing still has a license to thrill. Is this an underrated 007 classic or just another disposable mission? Suit up, grab your martini, and join us to find out!

How far would you go to survive? This week on 3 Guys and a Flick, we’re taking on one of Stephen King’s most haunting stories as we review The Long Walk, the long-awaited film adaptation directed by Francis Lawrence.

We break down the unforgettable performances from Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, and Mark Hamill, explore the film’s grim dystopian world, and dig into the powerful themes of war, sacrifice, conformity, and the cost of entertainment. Did the movie live up to decades of anticipation? Did it capture what made King’s novel so unforgettable?

Along the way, we discuss the film’s most shocking and emotional moments, debate what the ending really means, examine the creative decisions behind the adaptation, and reveal our final ratings. Whether you’re a lifelong Stephen King fan or just experienced The Long Walk for the first time, there’s plenty to unpack.

Join us for laughs, debate, behind-the-scenes trivia, and a deep dive into one of the year’s most talked-about thrillers.

Take the walk… if you think you can keep up.

This week, 3 Guys and a Flick pulls up a chair, breaks out the duct tape, and dives into the 1997 crime thriller Suicide Kings. Four rich young guys think kidnapping a retired mob boss is the smart way to save a missing sister and collect a ransom. Unfortunately for them, Christopher Walken is not the kind of guy you tie to a chair and walk away from clean.

Don, Jon, and Ken break down this 90s cocktail of crime, bad decisions, dark comedy, and gangster cool. They talk Walken’s quiet menace, Denis Leary’s scene-stealing chaos, the movie’s slick style, its “play dumb games, win dumb prizes” energy, and an ending that may have needed a little more time in the trunk.

There’s trivia, spoilers, questionable plans, severed fingers, and plenty of debate over whether Suicide Kings is an underrated cult crime flick or a ransom note that never quite gets paid off.
