Welcome to America's least necessary film criticism podcast. Each week, a guest will join hosts Noah Frank and Will Vitka to discuss a film that is at least 10 years old, that at least one of us hasn't seen in that period of time, and that, hopefully, at least one of us hasn't seen at all. No classics, no bombs. This is about revisiting regular movies that we think we liked when we first saw them, to see how both we and the culture around the film have changed in the intervening years. In contrast to the constant, life-or-death anxiety of the last few years, to the unyielding firehose of news, this podcast aims only to answer a single question with the lowest stakes imaginable: Do you still like this movie?

Sit down and buckle up as we pierce the bubble of the Nicolas Cage Cinematic Universe with “Gone in 60 Seconds,” brought to us by this week’s guest, Justin Klugh.
It’s a classic slice of early-aughts that, despite being a car-centric film, does not appear to have been made by “car porn enthusiasts.”
We manage to get references to everyone from Conan O’Brien to Bryce Harper squeezed into this bad boy, which may help explain its longest-episode-yet run time.
Apologies to “Galaxy Quest,” which I misnamed late in the pod, while everyone owes an apology to Frances Fisher for her lack of screen time. Enjoy!
