Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema’s most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We’re celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.

This spy thriller finds Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett putting their marriage to the test to see just how far they would go to find a traitor. A critical darling, Black Bag failed to find commercial success but has all the markings of a cult classic. Listen as Troy and Brad deep drive into this super-sexy spy thriller.
