On Episode #127 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, a podcast that functions as both group therapy and cinematic exorcism, our scaly trio of hosts turned their collective, dragon-singed gaze toward Reign of Fire; the 2002 post-apocalyptic lizard-thon that imagined a world where dragons reemerged from the London Underground and decided that humanity had simply had enough time.

This month’s theme? Man Month. A celebration of films from that hallowed, oily era when masculinity was measured by shirtlessness, gravitas, and one’s ability to shout at mythical creatures while swinging an axe. Enter: Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, and Gerard Butler; three men so hyperbolically manly in this film that you could bottle their sweat and sell it as artisanal barbecue sauce.
