This is Bags of Action. The podcast devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them are awesome! In this episode Steve is away on holiday so Pete and special guest Gavin Jones talk about Rapid Fire from 1992. This is a special episode and next month we'll return to part 2 of our Cusack trilogy. The film stars Brandon Lee, son of Bruce Lee, in an action movie two years before his final role in The Crow. This film is one of Pete's special weapons, a film he has been angling to get on the show for a while, but will it deliver for Gav? Next month we're back on with our Cusack attack, but you, faithful listener, can decide on what the 3rd part will be.

GSN PODCAST: Bags of Action - Episode 33

This is Bags of Action. The podcast is devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them awesome! In this episode Steve and Pete talk about Homefront from 2013 starring Jason Statham. This is the third in our Statham trilogy and so far this trilogy has been pretty disappointing. Both hosts had low expectations going in, so did it live up to them? This film has a well known cast with some big names including James Franco, Wynona Rider, Frank Grillo, Clancy Brown and Kate Bosworth. For the next three months we are going to be doing a trilogy devoted to what is probably an unlikely action hero, John Cusack. We've decided on what the first two films are going to be for June and July, but you, the listener, get to vote and decide on what we will be watching in August. So, watch the trailers for these films and then cast your vote on here, or on the Facebook group. - The Bag Man - Cusack and Robert De Niro - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJzey2Q1bAQ - The Numbers Station - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bigClSQWNs - Drive Hard - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5knw74WsGpI - Dragon Blade - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPm3FOT0-xk The Prince - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uI21mDC5TXk If you would like to get in touch you can join in the discussion of all things related to action movies on the Facebook Group or you can follow Bags of Action on Twitter @BagsofAction.
