A good friend of mine, Becky (aka Prairie Girl), recommended this one to me, and I’m so glad she did. I think this is one of the most underrated shows of 2024 that should’ve gotten more attention.

Welcome to another edition of FlixChatter Double Reviews. I thought I’d review these two action movies that dropped on the same day, July 2nd, on Amazon Prime and Netflix, respectively.
