I've been a fan of the Lazic twins since their appearances on Blank Check years ago, and I'm so glad they finally have a show to discuss films on a regular basis. Their insight, passion, and honesty has held them up as two of our finest film critics, and listening to their Sinners episode immediately highlights all their best qualities.
