John Wick (2014) / Heaven's Door Revival Tennessee Bourbon
In this high-octane season finale, Bob and Brad return to 2014’s John Wick, a film that redefined modern action movies and catapulted Keanu Reeves back into superstardom. They break down Chad Stahelski's slick, violent, and surprisingly economical revenge thriller and ask the question: does John Wick deserve to be considered a modern classic, or is it all style and no substance?Alongside the mayhem, Bob and Brad sip on Heaven's Door Revival Tennessee bourbon, an expression from Bob Dylan's award-winning whiskey label.
