  • Better than most movie shows

    These guys love all kinds of movies and are really funny and fun to listen to. Huge variety of genres covered and always appreciate their perspective. They do theme months and a TON of great extra content if you sign up for their patreon. The “vs” episodes are the best

  • excellent show

    Other film podcasts should take a lesson from these guys. no inside jokes with idiotic laughter. no silly voices. no awkward discomfort because the films were made “in a different time”. just presenting the film, the production, the good and bad points about it. these guys get it. very well done!

  • Comprehensive & enjoyable

    This is a fantastic podcast. They review movies, do plenty of research, don’t rush the conversation, cover tons of topics within the film. Most amazing is there’s been no ads that I’ve heard which is beyond refreshing.
