  • Summary

  • This week, Rob Will Taylor fills in for Dick Ebert to join Gene Lyons in breaking down the 1981 sci-fi thriller Outland, starring Sean Connery.

    Often described as "High Noon in space," this overlooked gem takes us to Jupiter's moon Io, where a hard-nosed marshal uncovers corruption, drug smuggling, and explosive (sometimes literally) consequences.

    Rob shares why this film is a must-see for Connery fans and '80s sci-fi lovers, while Gene dives into its striking similarities with Alien.

    Tune in for lively debates on head explosions, corporate greed and Sean Connery's on-screen marriages—or lack thereof. Did Outland age like fine space wine or burn out faster than a rogue asteroid? Find out in this week's review!
