The Mikes are driving recklessly up a snowy mountain with Danny Glover and Jared Leto on this episode of Forgotten Cinema as they discuss the 1997 film Switchback; also starring Dennis Quaid as the FBI Agent out to stop one of them...but it\'s so obviously Danny Glover that it\'s silly.

That\'s right! Mike Butler and Mike Field have thoughts! While they both enjoy this film, it is absolutely riddled with plot holes, story elements that shouldn\'t be there, or choices that make zero sense. The story in and of itself is good and the acting, especially the acting and chemistry with Glover and Leto, is great. Field and Butler just can\'t get over the inconsistencies and the way things could have been done better. The Mikes aren\'t surprised this is a box office flop or that it is a forgotten film, but it\'s a decent 90\'s thriller that might just scratch an itch.

So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema
