Ep. 81 - Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Movie Review

Hollister & O’Toole, or, in keeping with the title’s NATO Phonetic Alphabet, Hotel & Oscar debate the merits of Tina Fey’s latest offering: Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Directed by Glenn Ficarra & John Requa (Crazy, Stupid, Love). Cinematography by Xavier Grobet. Screenplay by Robert Carlock; based on a fictionalized account of Kim Barker’s book "The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan”*. Produced by Tina Fey and Lorne Michaels. Also starring Margot Robbie, Martin Freeman, Alfred Molina, Christopher Abbott, and Billy Bob Thornton. Cameos by Josh Charles (Will lives!) and Cherry Jones. *Though the film is based on Kim Barker’s book, Tina Fey’s character is Kim Baker (without the first “r”). O’Toole swears that at one point in the movie someone addresses Tina Fey as “Tina”. Is O’Toole crazy? (Wait, don’t answer that.)
