After 32 Years, Kevin Bacon's Intense Action Thriller Officially Scores a New Release

From dancing into pop-culture history in Footloose to projecting pure menace in Mystic River and trading blows with mutants in X-Men: First Class, Kevin Bacon has built a legendary career on his chameleon energy. Yet among his vast filmography, there is one particular mid-90s survival film that pushed his capacity for raw intensity to the absolute limit. It was a white-knuckle ride that gripped audiences when it opened in theaters, and now, more than three decades later, this forgotten gem is finally returning to the spotlight.

Mark Wahlberg’s Newest Crime Movie Officially Debuts on Streaming After Disastrous Box Office Run

It appears that Mark Wahlberg's preoccupation with streaming originals has dented his box-office appeal. The actor's films have grossed more than $3 billion at the domestic box office, but he hasn't delivered a theatrical hit as a leading man since 2018's Instant Family, which grossed $67 million domestically. Aside from Uncharted and Transformers: The Last Knight, none of his movies has been able to top the $100 million milestone domestically since Daddy's Home 2, which was released nearly a decade ago. In this decade, Wahlberg has starred in more than half a dozen streaming tentpoles, while his theatrical movies hit a ceiling in the $20-million range. His latest theatrical release, however, fell short of even this milestone.

Matt Damon’s $970 Million Action Trilogy Is Officially Streaming in One Place

You know the name, you know what he does, and you know he doesn't need an introduction. All you need to know is that Matt Damon kicked ass, reinvented the spy thriller and was so good at it, he made James Bond think twice about how exactly he should get to work. The three movies that started it all — The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum — have officially come together on Netflix in the United States as of October 1.
