For Your Reconsideration

Rob Parker, James Stuart, Simon Lewisfor-your-reconsideration.simplecast.com

Join Nic Cage and JCVD enthusiasts Rob, Simon and James as they dig into a vault of underrated movies from yesteryear to see if they are rightly shunned to the bargain buckets of Asda, or whether they do indeed deserve reconsideration.


To qualify the week's film must either be classed as Rotten on RottenTomatoes.com, or officially be a box office bomb.
