  • Adaptation (2003), Episode 25
    Jan 6 2020

    Surely there can be nothing better than Nicolas Cage? Well how about 2 Nicolas Cages! Nicolas Cagei? We watched Adaptation and it was pretty wild.

    A bonkers but incredible performance around one of the most incredible scripts out there, this is peak Cage and the boys are here for it.

     We've made it to a new decade and the boys are feeling the run off from a tumultuous 2019 and as a result are finding it hard to put into words this incredibly complicated, multilayered and meta film. Brains are tired and only getting worse, but our boy gets us through it. Good or bad, you be the judge.
