Cinematic Leap

This week we discuss Unstoppable , the 2010 film starring Denzel Washington. Unstoppable was the last film directed by Tony Scott, and also the last of three films chosen by our Scott for his leap of three. Unstoppable opens up many possible leap directions for Glenn to chose from but which way will he go...? We arrived at Unstoppable through composer Harry Gregson-Williams.

This episode we discuss 2010 crime thriller The Town . Not the best bank robbery movie out there, but not the worst either. We leapt to The Town through actor Ben Affleck even though he's done plenty of better films. This is far from his worst though...

This week Scott actually chooses a good movie again and we leap to Gone Girl - the David Fincher thriller starring Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike and based on the book by Gillian Flynn. We leapt here from Starship Troopers through actor Neil Patrick Harris.

This episode we leap to something much more frightening than bad ghost effects - space bugs - with the leaper Jake Busey to the classic sci-fi film Starship Troopers . 

This episode we leap with Michael J. Fox to The Frighteners - Peter Jackson's comedy horror film from 1986. Why didn't we just go straight to Back To The Future 2 ? No idea!

We couldn't resist leaping to the 80's time travel classic Back To The Future . As soon as Glenn noticed the composer for The A-Team the leaper was chosen. What more can be said about this film that hasn't been said before? Probably nothing, but that didn't stop us taking this on anyway.

This episode we discuss the 2010 action thriller The A-Team based on the 80s TV show. We arrived at this film from The Ice Storm through actor Henry Czerny. The A-Team stars Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Jessica Biel and is not as bad as you would expect. 

This episode we discuss Glenn's favourite film - Ang Lee's The Ice Storm . We arrived here by leaping with Sigourney Weaver. The film also stars Kevin Kline, Joan Allen, Tobey Maguire and Christina Ricci. 

With the very random choice of Reginald VelJohnson we leap from Die Hard 2 to Ghostbusters . Could this be our new number one film after we all give our rating? Surely it will be! Listen to find out!

Who doesn't love the Bruce Willis Christmas classic Die Hard ? Nobody! But we couldn't quite get there so this episode we discuss the other Bruce Willis Christmas classic - Die Hard 2 ! We arrived at this film by leaping with Step Brothers cinematographer Oliver Wood.

This week we discuss the 2008 film Step Brothers . We arrived at this film leaping with actress Kathryn Hahn. Hopefully this episode is enjoyed more than we enjoyed this film... 

This episode we discuss the hilarious 2013 crime comedy film We're The Millers . This film stars Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Emma Roberts and Will Poulter. We leapt to this film through actor Nick Offerman. 

This episode we find ourselves staring at Men Who Stare At Goats for some reason. This 2009 film stars Ewan McGregor, George Clooney and Jeff Bridges. We leapt here through actor Robert Patrick. Where will this film take us...?

This week we discuss the 2006 film We Are Marshall. This sports movie is based on a true story and stars Matthew McConaughey and has a much more uplifting ending than last weeks film. We arrived at this film through leaping with actor Anthony Mackie. 

This week we leap to the 2004 sports drama Million Dollar Baby through Morgan Freeman. Clint Eastwood directed, while also starring. Hilary Swank won an academy award for her performance, as did Morgan Freeman. This film won 4 Oscars in total from 7 nominations, but more importantly - what did we think?

This week we discuss the 1995 crime thriller Se7en, starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman as police detectives hunting a psychotic serial killer. We leaped (leapt?) to this film through actor Brad Pitt.  

This week we discuss the 2007 film The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford starring Brad Pitt and Casey Affleck. We arrived at this film by leaping from actor Sam Rockwell. 

This week we discuss the 2003 Nicholas Cage film, Matchstick Men which we arrived at through leaping with director Ridley Scott. 

This week we follow Matt Damon across from The Bourne Identity to the 2015 sci-fi film The Martian, directed by Ridley Scott and based on the Andy Weir book. 

Our second episode, in which we discuss the 2002 film The Bourne Identity starring Matt Damon and Franka Potente. We arrived at this film from last weeks Adaptation through actor Brian Cox.

Our first episode in which we discuss the 2002 film Adaptation starring Nicolas Cage, Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper and Nicholas Cage...
