Episode 130 - The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent
Welcome back to another exciting episode of Not A Bomb podcast, the show that tackles some of the biggest bombs in cinema history. December is all about looking back on some of the biggest bombs of 2022. Kicking off the month is Troy’s pick, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. This meta-action-comedy, starring the one and only Nic Cage, couldn’t make money in the pre-summer season but managed to get a little love from most of the major critics.
