I’ve listened to this from the beginning and aside from Amy’s irritating mispronunciations, I like it. But when I take a break from it, it’s always because I’m tired of Paul’s lecturing. There are times when I get to uncomfortable listening to Paul hector Amy about his POV. I don’t always agree with Amy (though she is right about Spielberg’s War of the Worlds) but she at least listens (perhaps too much) to Paul.

I want to like this podcast so much because I love movies & I can tell Paul does too but I don’t understand how they can talk for an hour without actually saying anything interesting about the movies they cover 😂🙈

It makes me uncomfortable to hear criticism of Amy’s voice. A voice is not something that can be changed. We rarely hear complaints on male voices. That said, she can really get into the weeds with many obscure takes. It gets tedious. Love Paul. His knowledge is clear and his takes seem more balanced to me.

Started listening to this podcast because of Paul but I can’t stand Amy. Comes off incredibly pretentious. If it was just her, no one would listen to this podcast.

Paul Scheer’s ridiculous comments are beyond frustrating - all he does is argue for HIS version of films as opposed to critiquing them as they are - you’re supposed to be talking about whether a film is successful or not on its own terms - listen to the Carrie episode and you’ll see what I mean. He doesn’t seem to understand that no one cares whether he, personally, likes it or not. She’s annoying but he wrecks the show.

Man, some people miss the boat here. The beauty of this pod is that Amy, as a AAA film critic, and Paul an actor good enough to be in Veep, both bring great insights. Honest, kind and often funny. The usage of movie clips is very good. Diehard episode was great. Love Amy’s take, voice - and laugh lol Paul sounds like a solid good dude. It’s become one of my favorite pods out of many. If you want clinical tear-downs go somewhere else. Hearing Amy’s take on getting to understand David Lynch was beautiful.

Used to really enjoy and listened to for years. But recently with success comes the snarkiness and self importance, which I can no longer abide. Both Scheer and Nicholson are capable critics and talk about movies with real insight but there’s a false self regard in their own wit and talent as podcasters (mostly from Nicholson that has made it so I rarely listen anymore. This happens sometimes. I jumped off the podcast Filmspotting well before it ended for similar reasons. They suddenly proclaimed themselves too brilliant and cool for their own audience. See ya

Tried to make it through two podcasts (“Interstellar” and “Sweet Smell of Success.”). Hosts would rather talk about themselves instead of any substance regarding the film. Feel free to fast forward through the first 15 minutes, regardless of episode.

The hosts are pleasant to listen to and don’t drawl into monotone. The content is interesting with a balance of facts, background, insights, and opinions.

If you like or love movies this is a great podcast. I’m always learning something new from Amy and Paul.
