Bayhem 14 – 6 Underground

Talk Film Society — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 02:06:00 +0000

IT’S HERE!

Is this the “most” Michael Bay movie since Bad Boys II? What about the fact that it’s on Netflix and only a very small number of the population will ever get to experience this on the big screen? What about the moral questions that come up with the number of bodies that pile up over the course of two hours? All this and so much more is discussed, along with the Bayhem trio’s personal rankings of Michael Bay’s filmography. Thanks for listening.
