Summer may not officially kick off until June 21st, but don’t tell The Cine-Men that! Right about the time the calendar flips to May, movie theaters start churning out releases with big action and big stars as they kick off the summer theatrical season. For Episode 49, the two dive into their favorite summer blockbusters, exploring why these films mean as much as they do.

Cine-Men Challenges discussed in this episode include John Woo’s Hard Boiled and Timo Tjahjanto’s The Night Comes For Us.
