Oh Brother

I’m giving this show five stars because it helped me appreciate a film I had completely written off. The first time I watched the animated film Flow, I actually fell asleep. It felt slow, and I just didn’t connect with it. But after listening to the episode, the way the hosts broke down the themes like survival, isolation, and trust, and talked about how the film was made, I gave it another try. I had no idea it was created using a free animation program, or that the whole thing was done in one continuous shot. I wouldn’t have noticed how detailed the water animation was or how intentional the pacing felt without their insight. Watching it again, it all started to come together, and I saw how much thought and care went into every part of it. That’s what I love about this podcast. It doesn’t just review movies, it gives you a better way to see them. The hosts add so much context and always come prepared with extra research and background that makes the experience feel fuller. They pay close attention to the details and give real respect to the work filmmakers put in, whether the film is big, small, weird, or silent. Even when it’s something I wouldn’t normally be drawn to, I end up appreciating it more because of what they bring to the table. Subscribed!

Really dig this podcast. The hosts are (obviously) brothers, so the dynamic is already built in. Found myself laughing several times. Started with the episode on Finch and quickly hit subscribe.

Two idiots who know nothing about film. 🤪

I like that the podcast was not how I imagined it would go. You guys really gave some interesting points not only about the movies but about the casts and any back stories about the film. The most recent one I listened to was the Raya review which I gotta say I agree that the length was to long, but overall a good movie. You guys are honest which makes it interesting to hear it said out loud. Definitely subscribed! Keep up the great reviews!
