Customer Reviews
Fun and informative, one of my regular weekly podcasts
I always make sure I listen to this podcast, the way Jason interviews his guests is always great he has the gift of asking the questions you would like to ask, a great place to be informed on films to watch out for.
My go to film critic now with his own podcast 💯
Jason delivers with great insight, humility. Will make this a regular listen
Seen any good films lately
Jason is one of the best film critics out there. What makes him standout is the fact that he still likes films and has not become cynical of modern films. He still appreciates films for what they are, great entertainment. He understands that whilst some do make social commentary and have something to say, they can still be about nothing of any great significance but be entertaining. A great film critic, presenter and he knows how to pick a good tune too.
Highly recommended. 👏🏾.
