HARD BOILED

It’s DIE HARD in a hospital!This time, Phil and Liam team up to investigate HARD BOILED (1992), John Woo’s operatic action extravaganza starring legendary actors Chow Yun-fat and Tony Leung, as two very different Hong Kong cops who join forces to take down a ruthless arms dealer.It’s a film that’s often compared to DIE HARD…but does it actually surpass it? Is this actually the greatest action film of all time? The boys debate these controversial questions, while breaking down the various astonishing action sequences that Woo somehow captured in this utterly spectacular 'bullet ballet.' They also discuss the film’s many poetic flourishes, the deceptively deep thematic underpinnings, the soulful tone, the supercool style, and the fabulous supporting cast. Passions and emotions run high in this one! As always there’s the ‘ DIE HARD Oscars’ to look forward to, and an entertaining round of the ‘Double Jeopardy’ trivia quiz completes the proceedings. So make yourself a Tequila Slammer, grab your clarinet, and soak it all in!HARD BOILED TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAtxZHuJNW4DIE HARD ON A BLANK is created, written, and hosted by Philip Gawthorne.
