Tune in as Andy (Fat Dude Digs Flicks Movie Podcasts) slides back into his guest seat for a breakdown of Virtuosity, the 1995 sci-fi action thriller that sends a prisoner with a police officer background on a mission to stop a serial killer who's managed to escape his birthplace of virtual reality and is now terrorizing the real world. The investment that director Brett Leonard puts into VR through projects like Virtuosity and The Lawnmower Man, the lovably bonkers expanse of Russell Crowe's committed performance, the cheesy and dated 90s CGI in this cyberpunk landscape, and the missed opportunity to further flesh out the commentary on topics like incarcerated slave labor and police brutality stand out as a few of the subjects that this episode covers. Directed by Brett Leonard, Virtuosity stars Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Kelly Lynch, Stephen Spinella, William Forsythe, Louise Fletcher, William Fichtner, Costas Mandylor, Kevin J. O'Connor, Kaley Cuoco, Christopher Murray, and Heidi Schanz.

Zo and Andy Heller from the Fat Dude Digs Flicks Movie Podcasts traveled back in time to post WWII Castle Rock, Oregon (not to be confused with Castle Rock, Maine), and overheard four boys who talked about going on a journey to find a dead body. Both Zo and Andy speculated that the four boys might find out more about themselves on their 20 miles trek though the wildlands of Oregon. Then they left the boys to the boys' adventure and went to the nearest malt shop to score a couple of milkshakes. It's the 1950's after all, and the milkshakes in this time period were to die for.Segment Time StampsOpening Credits: . . . . . . . 00:19:47Favorite Parts: . .  . . . . . . .00:48:05Trivia: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .01:19:49Critics Thoughts: . . . . . . .01:38:57 Andy Heller/Fat Dude Digs Flicks Links:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fatdudedigsflicks/Twitter: https://twitter.com/FatDudeFlicksLetterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/fatdudeflicks/ Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media:Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Email: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.
