Agent Recon (2024)

About this episode

The hosts review 'Agent Recon' while spiraling into absurd discussions about reality, anatomy, and survival strategies.

This week on Movie Torture, Brad, Jacob, and MTD set out to review Agent Recon… and accidentally spend most of the episode questioning reality, anatomy, and whether MTD is secretly the Matrix.

At one point, the conversation turns into a survival strategy of “just aim somewhere in the torso and hope for the best.” But the real highlight isn’t the movie—it’s the spirals. Within minutes, they’ve: Debated uploading MTD’s brain into a cyborg and whether he’d save humanity or just bring a TV remote to a gunfight Planned a full production of Monkey Cop like it’s a legitimate Hollywood contender Argued about who would survive an alien invasion (spoiler: nobody, because they’re all aiming for the wrong organs) Gone deep into Total Gym infomercials and somehow turned it into a Rocky-style training montage between two grown men in an apartment Discussed who’s dying first between Dick Van Dyke and Mel Brooks like it’s a Vegas…
