Action U.S.A. (1989)
A classic, no-budget Lethal Weapon rip-off. Things explode. Breasts are bared. People are shot. More things explode.

Hidden Strike (2023)
They said it couldn't be done. Well Jackie Chan and John Cena proved them wrong. They pair two comedy action stars to make the most forgettable movie of the year. Bravo.

The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart (2023)
Good Lord; this episode is more meandering than The Venture Bros. TV show for which this very special movie is a definitive conclusion. Special guest Scott Mountain taps in for Ryan.

Escape (2012)
The slugs watch a fun chase movie set in medieval Norway with preposterous setup. Are you really expecting us to believe that a massive pandemic could fray social norms, set people against each other, and the ensuing chaos would have deadly con...

Extraction II (2023)
Tyler Rake is back for more action, and so are the slugs. It's a must-watch love fest and maybe the best UncleFight ever put on film.

Extraction (2020)
The slugs take in a white savior movie with an insane body count. Shakespeare, this is not. But Shakespeare also never had a guy blowing dudes away with a handgun a range of less than three feet. Unless you count the Duke of Exeter from Hen...

The Thieves (2012)
Ryan loves the third act; Brant hated the third act. One thing they both agree on; they would gladly let Jun Ji-Hyun rob them blind if it involved pretending they were engaged to her.

Contract Killer / aka Hitman (1998)
The Slugs are joined by returning guest Will Winn, a man who knows about being serious. Is Jet Li a noble hitman, or just a grossly incompetent one? Listen and learn, children.

The Gray Man (2023)
It's Ryan Gosling vs. Chris Evans and Ana de Armas in a no-holds-barred fight to see who can be the sexiest. Ryan and Brant come to terms with seeing Steve Rogers in a sex-offender mustache.

The Wrath of Becky (2023)
Ryan and Brant return to the world of Becky. I hope you brought a smock and wetmop, because it's going to get... bloody.

Becky (2020)
Did you ever think that what Kevin McCallister did in Home Alone was borderline criminal. Well, prepare to jump completely over that line.

The VelociPastor (2017)
Ryan and Brant discuss the merits of a monster movie made for the cost of a (very) nice meal out on the town.

China Salesman (2018)
Who knew that a movie where Mike Tyson kicks Steven Seagal's ass would be such a boring lecture on China's attitudes towards free, secure internet policy and the ins-and-outs of bidding for telecommunication service provider contracts.

Absolution (2015)
Verdict: Straight Watchable. With one movie left in the Seagalathon miniseries, Ryan and Brant can see the light at the end of the Seagal tunnel. And by tunnel, we mean sewage outflow pipe. This movie does have one of the best explosions...

Gutshot Straight (2014)
It's Seagal's best performance. It's unwatchable! Which is it? It's BOTH. Ryan and Brant nearly come to blows (or snarky rejoinders) over this divisive, bargain basement film noir. Let it be known, regardless of his other opinions, that Ryan is...

Force of Execution (2013)
Apparently, if you really want to make Steven Seagal happy, just call him the N word to his face. Fortunately, neither of the slugs has any interest in using that kind of language, or making Steven Seagal happy. Case in point: this Seagalathon....

Steven Seagal and Stone Cold Steve Austin team up to shut down a very shabby prison. Hilarity ensues.

A Dangerous Man (2009)
The slugs are trying to understand how parole is enforced (for a friend), and the movie is not clearing anything up.

Submerged (2005)
This Steven Seagal movie is pretending to be on a sub the entire time, because it wants to remind people of Under Siege. It has maaaaaybe about 15 minutes of sub scenes. That's okay, Under Siege was set on a battleship, not a sub. It's that lac...

Ticker (2001)
The Slugs review a movie about terrorists blowing up densely populated urban areas that was released two months after 9/11. Even more upsetting? Steven Seagal almost comes across as charismatic in this hatewatch gem.

Furies (2023)
It's the Netflix exclusive sequel to the formerly Netflix exclusive Furie, which is no longer on Netflix. If you think that's confusing, you should stick around for the plot for Furies. Awesome motorcycle chases and go-go dancing make up for an...

Imagine that somewhere, deep within the multiverse, there is an alternate reality where Josh Charles is a really cool dude, and Rutger Hauer is still a grumpy old crank.
