    155 - The Killer and The Marvels

    155 - The Killer and The Marvels

    Back from a long hiatus, we catch up with the much-publicized MCU flop, The Marvels, and David Fincher's Netflix thriller, The Killer. Both hosts talk about what they've been up to while away from their microphones, and for the streaming homework, we discuss the 1947 noir, Out of the Past, starring Robert Michum and Kirk Douglass. Also, the sound is a bit weird here as some locations were hastily changed. Will sound much better going forward.

A+ Movie Podcast

Both hosts offer great opinions and analysis. They cover a wide range of film genres and eras. Both exude knowledge and passion as it pertains to film.

Interesting perspective

It’s really entertaining considering how most movie critic podcasts go. I don’t always agree but i always feel like I learn something! Great listen!

Super fun!

I’m terribly biased, because the hosts are two of my favorite people on the planet, but this is one of the highlights of my week. It’s hilarious, well thought out, and in-depth.
