    Tony and JoeyC team up to talk about Double Dragon! The video game movie from the 90s that isn't as good as Mortal Kombat, as funny as Street Fighter, or as memorable as Super Mario Bros. It is full of dumb fun though!
    In post-apocalyptic California, brothers Billy Lee (Scott Wolf) and Jimmy (Mark Decascos) are highly trained martial artists living in the ravaged city of New Angeles. The pair have been trained by Satori (Julia Nickson), who took them in after their parents died. When Satori finds herself pursued by evil overlord Koga Shuko (Robert Patrick), who's intent on possessing her mystical dragon medallion, the siblings are charged with protecting it from Shuko and his henchmen.
