Customer Reviews
Low key the best movie podcast
These guys have great chemistry, and the analysis is both smart and funny
OLD
I was only introduced your show recently, and I am absolutely loving catching up with it. That said, and for the record, “MONSTER” is soo not a forgotten film. You guys make me feel so old. Aside from that, keep it going!
Loved the podcast until they got lazy:
Really enjoyed some of the episodes on 2001 and Interstellar and a few of my perennial favorites. They have a keen eye for film at times. But sometimes it seems like they can’t help themselves but backslide into the worn out, trite talking points of the cultural left. They do the frankly boring and lazy thing of making every bit of analysis of a film into political commentary (favoring the predictable side). So it’s a shame they masquerade as film critics when they really just want to dunk on people politically.
