Episode Synopsis

HOUR 1

🎬 Faith, Fortune, and Fighting for What’s Right — Andy’s Movie Picks of the Week!

This week on Rush to Reason, Andy Pate dives into three powerful stories that span galaxies, oil fields, and war tribunals — each with its own twist of heart, humor, and hard choices.

💥 Predator: Badlands — The hunt is on in a brutal new chapter of the Predator saga. This one packs intense action, sharp effects, and a surprisingly heartfelt message about loyalty and courage. Andy gives it ⭐⭐⭐⭐ for quality, praising its pace and standout performances — especially Elle Fanning’s unexpected depth. With a balanced take on politics (⭐⭐⭐) and a neutral moral tone (⭐⭐⭐), it’s not profound, but it’s fun, fierce, and absolutely worth the watch. Review Begins at 8:22

🛢 Sarah’s Oil — Based on the true story of Sarah Rector, a young Black girl in early 1900s Oklahoma who struck oil against all odds. Andy praises its honesty, acting, and faith-driven message, calling it “a Christian film anyone can enjoy” with ⭐⭐⭐ for quality and ⭐⭐⭐⭐ for moral depth. Review Begins at 24:54

⚖️ Nuremberg — A somber look at justice after war, this historical drama asks whether doing your duty excuses doing what’s wrong. Andy gives it ⭐⭐½ for quality but says it still provokes deep thought. Review Begins at 38:57

HOUR 2

🎬 Order in the Studio! It’s Courtroom Classics on Rush to Reason! ⚖️

In this hour, Andy Pate, Tanner Cole, and Luke Cash step into the cinematic courtroom where justice meets drama — and sometimes comedy. From the thunderous “You can’t handle the truth!” of A Few Good Men to the street-smart charm of My Cousin Vinny and the pink-powered confidence of Legally Blonde, the crew revisits the movies that put truth, lies, and laughter on trial.

But who really delivers the best closing argument — Tom Cruise, Joe Pesci, or Reese Witherspoon? And what makes courtroom films so irresistible decades later? 🎥

Tune in for the verdict, the laughter, and a few surprising picks in this https://RushToReason.com movie hour that proves justice is never boring!
