The last day of the month.
December is almost upon us, my friends.
November still has a cinematic part to play, though.
Let’s see how it looks on the box on Tuesday, 30 November…
The Goonies – Turner Classic Movies / TCM – 6.45pm
Beloved coming-of-age adventure featuring a young Josh Brolin.
Gifted – Film4 – 6.55pm
Chris Evans shows an even more tender side of himself than his usual Captain America heroics in this sensitive drama about a child prodigy.
American Pie: Reunion – Comedy Central – 9pm
The fourth one.
Jason Bourne – Film4 – 9pm
Technically the fifth one a.k.a. the one where Matt Damon returned to the spy franchise.
Bad Boys – Sky Showcase – 9pm
The original outing for Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s law enforcement partnership is our main pick for you tonight.
The two best friends – one super-cool (Smith), the other insecure as hell (Lawrence) – must trade identities to protect a hunted witness as a ruthless villain closes in.
Bad Boys boasts good humour, great action, a killer music score and plenty of 90s atmosphere.
Lucy – ITV4 – 10pm
Scarlett Johansson develops super-powers and battles the bad guys who betrayed her in the first place.
Criminal – Film4 – 11.25pm
Kevin Costner takes the lead as a – wait for it – criminal who has his brain implanted with the memories of a dead CIA agent.
Belly of the Beast – TCM – 11.40pm
Typical ridiculous action fare from Steven Seagal’s endless straight-t0-DVD era.
LISTEN: You Must Be Jokin’ with Aideen McQueen – Faith healers, Coolock craic and Gigging as Gaeilge
