Episode 193 - American Assassin

from Not a Bomb Hosted by Not A Bomb Podcast

Welcome to Not A Bomb, your favorite podcast about some of the biggest cinema bombs in movie history. On this episode, we’re thrilled to welcome Jose, host of the newly revamped Watch/Skip+ podcast. Our focus this week is 2017’s action thriller, American Assassin, or, as someone labeled the film, “baby’s first Bourne.” But hey, this episode gives us an excuse to talk about Dylan O’Brien and mention the fantastic film Love and Monsters again. American Assassin starts with one heck of a punch, but does it have what it takes to captivate today’s modern audience? How does the film stack up against powerhouse franchises like James Bond or Mission Impossible? Before we get too deep into our analysis of the film, we spend a little time exploring the essential elements that either make or break an action-packed cinematic experience. American Assassin is directed by Michael Cuesta and stars Dylan O’Brien, Michael Keeton, Sanaa Lathan, Shiva Negar, David Suchet, Navid Negahban, Scott Adkins, and Taylor Kitsch.
