Very good, in-depth look at war movies. Much more than a scene by scene breakdown of a film, but an objective discussion about the film, the production, the themes and objectives of each film relative to the subject matter and the environment they were made in, and made to represent.
I look forward to each episode after binging the exisiting episode library.

Ireland2 years ago - The Definitive War Movie Podcast!
If you like war movies, this is definitely the place to be! I love the dynamic backgrounds from the hosts that all come to the films from a different perspective, but they are all related to the material discussed: a film critic, a military veteran, and a theater actor and director. So, you really get a great mix of from different areas of expertise. Absolutely worth checking out!

But close, hosts are just ok.Count on them not liking much. The woman is especially out of place.But let’s face it there isn’t much available in this genre.
Worth listening to for free definitely not going to pay for premium. Call it 2 1/2 stars
