Who are you? Why, I am Number Four -- or at least that's what the title tells me. But I am not a number; I am a free man! No, wait -- that's The Prisoner. This week's topic of conversation on the newly re-christened Cinefantastique Spotlight Review Podcast is I am Number Four, the new teen-oriented science-fiction action flick from producer Michael Bay, distributed by DreamWorks. Why "Number Four," you ask? Well, the film itself won't tell you, so if you want to find out, you should listen in as guest commentator Andrea Lipinski (of the Chronic Rift) reveals all the details from the source novel that the screenplay not-so-cleverly left out. Also chiming in our CFQ podcast regulars Dan Persons (who remarks on the film's debt to Smallville and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, by way of screenwriters Alfred Gough & Miles Millar and Marti Noxon) and Steve Biodrowski (who reveals that even the most disappointing films can be redeemed by cute animals such as lizards and dogs).
