Cloak and Dagger Review

from Movie Week in Review

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note. TFG1Mike and Doug Abel revisit the 1984 spy-adventure film Cloak and Dagger, discovering it's nothing like they remembered from childhood. They discuss the film's implausible plot involving a kid and a government conspiracy, the casting of Henry Thomas fresh off E.T., and Dabney Coleman's performance as the imaginary spy Jack Flack. The hosts explore why the movie hasn't aged well, compare it unfavorably to similar films like Double-O Kid and The Last Starfighter, and share trivia about the Gamekeeper arcade location and the film's theatrical release as a double feature.
