This week, Gavin and I are FINALLY tackling our first Bollywood picture, the 2016 action/martial arts epic- Baaghi. Starring the insanely talented Tiger Shroff, this film is an amalgamation of both Bollywood and Hong Kong cinema, giving us a modern day ‘gongfupian’ in the least expected place. Switching out Chinese martial arts with the ancient Indian fighting art of Kalaripayattu, the rest of the movie borrows many classic elements of the traditional Kung Fu flick, while simultaneously paying homage and making references to international martial arts cinema from around the world. Finding inspiration from Jackie Chan, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, and even the Karate Kid, the film manages to put its own special touch on the genre through its blending of musical sequences, romantic comedy, and hard-hitting, bone-crushing action! This is thanks mostly to the out of this world abilities of lead Tiger Shroff, whose kicks must be seen to be believed! Listen in as we dissect this over-the-top action extravaganza, share what we liked about it, and why you should give it a chance! Don’t forget to subscribe, download, and share with your friends! Thanks again for the continued support and we hope you enjoy!

Baaghi: Bollywood Cinema, Kung Fu flick, or Both?!

Those burly boys known as The Expendables are back almost a decade after their last outing in Expendables 3 (2014). We were definitely not going to cover Expend4bles, but then it scored a remarkably low 13% on Rotten Tomatoes, which made it essential viewing. The cast is getting downright geriatric, with a 77-year-old Sylvester Stallone, a 65-year-old Dolph Lundgren, and a 67-year-old Andy Garcia all trying to pull off some late-career stunts. Jason Statham does the heavy lifting in the action department, and he's lazily supported by Randy Couture, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, and Iko Uwais. This movie bombed hard for many reasons, which we will illuminate in this Hawt Take!

Directed by Scott Waugh, Expend4bles is the action/adventure film and fourth installment in The Expendables franchise, following The Expendables 3 (2014).

Luke and Jae catch up on the 2023 movie where old blood met new blood, in this action packed ensemble which includes Jason Statham, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Megan Fox, Dolph Lundgren, Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Randy Couture, Jacob Scipio, Levy Tran, Andy Garcia, and Sylvester Stallone.

Armed with every weapon they can get their hands on and the skills to use them, The Expendables are the world's last line of defense and the team that gets called when all other options are off the table. But new team members with new styles and tactics are going to give "new blood" a whole new meaning.
