Welcome back to Hugging the Cactus, the Mel Gibson podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into Boss Level, a criminally underrated action-packed thrill ride that deserves way more attention. From mind-blowing fight scenes and intense gun battles to sci-fi twists and comedy gold, this movie fires on all cylinders.

If you haven’t seen Boss Level, stop everything and watch it now – trust me, you won’t be bored for a second. This is Crank meets Mad Max: Fury Road in the best way possible. We explore Mel Gibson’s role as the sinister Colonel Clive Ventor, Frank Grillo’s breakout performance, and why this film bombed despite being a modern classic.

Why did Boss Level fail at the box office? What went wrong with distribution? And why does this movie deserve a second life on streaming platforms? We break it all down, highlighting the top reasons why Boss Level is a must-watch for action and sci-fi lovers.

Mel Gibson’s Mutiny on the Bounty: The Untold Story of a Hollywood Flop 36:39

36:39

Mel Gibson, Mutiny on the Bounty, and historical accuracy take center stage in this episode of Hugging the Cactus: A Mel Gibson Podcast . Join us as we dive into the 1984 film The Bounty , directed by Roger Donaldson, featuring an all-star cast including Anthony Hopkins, Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson, and Laurence Olivier. We explore the real-life mutiny that inspired this cinematic retelling, the troubled production history (including developmental hell, budget woes, and Mel Gibson’s bar fights), and how it stacks up against earlier versions like the 1935 Clark Gable classic and the 1962 Marlon Brando film. From Robert Bolt’s screenplay to Vangelis’ soundtrack and Arthur Ibbetson’s cinematography, we unpack why this historically accurate take didn’t resonate with audiences or awards, despite its stunning visuals and epic scope. Was it the lack of a sequel, bad timing, or simply an unremakeable classic? Stick around for the full story of Fletcher Christian, Lieutenant Bligh, and a ship that changed naval history forever.…
