Hypolite Petovan on Nostr: I recently found out that I’m a sucker for the “super spy fights petty crime” ...

I recently found out that I’m a sucker for the “super spy fights petty crime” genre. First for me there was the Burn Notice TV show (2007-2013), then The Equalizer movies (2014, 2018, 2023) and then The Beekeeper (2024).

I believed it was a recent trend that highlighted a disillusionment for regular spy movies with higher stakes, but during my cursory research for this post I learned The Equalizer started out as a TV show in 1985?

Definitely an older trope than I thought.
