This week, the latest fit of the Deep Hurting Project ends with Pressure Point, a film that manages to make James Bond-style espionage look boring as fuck.
- Huh. This Chilean diplomat likes Wisconsin supper clubs. Why not?
- Frankly, if this guy's supposed to be Chilean, then I'm Gustavo Fring.
- Dude is a Chilean diplomat and he can't even pronounce his own country's name?
- Frankly, I have to admit: putting a bomb in a birthday cake sounds like a bit of an inefficient way of assassinating a public figure. You want a better way to kill a diplomat with a cake? Just watch Gloomy Sunday. It's also on Tubi, and even if it is about both Nazism in Hungary AND a song that's basically the Anti-Life Equation, it's probably going to still be more fun than this movie.
- They made a snowmobile work instantly after it had been buried in snow for fuck knows how long?
- So, why not just pardon the guy if you need him so fucking bad?
- Why is this prison break so underwhelming? Just cut some wires, tap one guard on the head, and he's out, and lying in a garbage truck.
- Hey, do you mind turning it down, man? Wallace Shawn and a bunch of other actors are making Vanya on 42nd Street on the other side of this theater!
- Vermont rednecks? And they're dumb enough to not notice when he went behind a door?
- Why is this explosives guy a cross between Jerry Lewis and a taller version of Billy Barty?
- And they didn't even follow through on the diplomatic handwave that makes people not care about Della being missing?
- We're almost two-thirds of the way into this film and we're only just now being let in on the whole "right-wing cabal" thing?
- These right-wingers actually care about things like an antiquated education system, decaying infrastructure, violence, and wealth inequality? Well, someone clearly picked the wrong horse.
- Okay, here's a better 1990s action movie about a man trying to stop a right-wing militia group: Arlington Road. It's not streaming at the moment, but you should be able to find it on DVD.
- So, they're going to blow up the Congressional Office Building? Which one? Because there's six of them.
- And the boss betrayed him? They bailed him out just to make him another patsy in a case, even though he's already been in a supposedly maximum-security prison?
- Fucking Hell, he just had to remove the cluster of wires from the bomb?
