Most Samuel L. Jackson highlight reels lean hard on “Pulp Fiction” and his other Quentin Tarantino collaborations. But Jackson may deliver the most quips-per-frame in “The Long Kiss Goodnight,” thanks in part to a Shane Black script and a stoic co-star in the form of Geena Davis. She plays a suburban mom with amnesia. Then she remembers she was a ruthless assassin. Ice, knives and a baby doll that pees itself factor into this underappreciated buddy action comedy. Plus we play the new game, “Is Cutthroat Island an actual movie?” The Old Millennials record from a special studio, thanks in part to one of our hosts losing an appendix. It’s Old Millennials Remember Movies… and surgeries!

Love this movie!!! I think it has a bigger cult following even though it didn’t do well in the theaters. Classic Sam Jackson, and this was the start of the “Amnesiac Spy Thriller”…Circa Bourne Identity, Ghost in the Shell, Winter Soldier.
Glad the appendix is out and you’re feeling better.
