Why would anyone pay us to review a 1993 action-comedy starring an aging Sylvester Stallone and over-the-top Wesley Snipes? Because it’s incredibly easy to watch and superbly entertaining.

“Demolition Man” is a ’90s action movie with ’80s action movie in its DNA. It might even be that last true ’80s action movie, packed with one-liners and inexplicable explosions. Plus VR sex, Taco Bell, and shot after shot of Stallone slow-motion diving with guns blazing.

Things get weird this week as the original Shat The Movies trio–Roger, Dick, and Gene– dive deep into cryprison vs. regular prison, hostage raid tactics, foreplay, a world without murder, Sandra Bullock’s Sandraness, and the world’s worst movie soundtrack.
