Argylle (The One Where Bryce Dallas Howard Has a Cat Backpack)

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron wrap up their “Modern Messes” series with one of the twistiest, most overcooked spy films in recent memory: Argylle (2024). Bryce Dallas Howard stars as a cat-loving novelist, Sam Rockwell shows up as a scruffy maybe-spy, and Henry Cavill rocks a questionable hairstyle. With a cast this stacked and a budget that ballooned into the hundreds of millions, you’d think it would be a sleek spy thriller—instead, it’s a chaotic mess of twists on twists on twists.From brainwashing music boxes to oil-tanker ice-skating fights, the guys try to unravel a story that somehow manages to out-parody itself without ever admitting it’s a parody.So grab your velvet blazer, pour yourself a glass of Samuel L. Jackson’s finest Pinot, and join the guys as they laugh their way through one of the most ambitious, baffling, and bizarre spy flops of all time.Watch the official Argylle trailerSend us Fan Mail
