The Mikes are moving to Pittsburgh and becoming a couple of "waterdog" cops, laying down the law and drinking too much? Investigating a cop serial killer? Sleeping with our partners? Being investigated by them? Indicting our cousin who is also our ex-partner? Having our dad get shot by our Uncle police officer, because our ex-partner cousin cop was the serial killer, but our best friend/cousin/cop seems more like the suspect? And at the same time a major drug operation via boat is happening under our noses that we're barely going to spend more than 5 minutes on?!?!?! If you're confused then Mike Field and Mike Butler must be watching Striking Distance starring Bruce Willis, Sarah Jessica Parker, and a ton of other actors who deserved better. Listen in as the Mikes discuss how Willis contributed to the story becoming more and more ridiculous and directionless as production went on. They'll also talk about what doesn't work (almost everything) despite them remembering liking this film in the 90's. Despite all that, the film might actually have some decent bones on it.
