  • Good but…

    That Dan guy is so annoying, his vocal fry is so stupid and he drags it out, and he sounds pretentious when he tries to say Cannes, he says it normally then says it in an accent then normally again, pick an accent!!! Please get rid of him he adds nothing to this podcast.

  • Unfortunate Vocal Fry

    Review is based on specifically the “Smashing Machine” episode. Too many cooks in the kitchen, no real insightful thoughts, and the one host with vocal fry genuinely made me pause at 38mins and stop listening altogether. Not every voice needs a podcast!

  • Great podcast for keeping with the awards races; Awful film criticism.

    Please please stop saying “unless if….” and “also too….” at the beginning of sentences.

    A major issue with the pod is the hosts’ lack of eloquence and coherence when it comes to reviewing films. Phrases like “I enjoyed myself,” “I had a good time,” or “I was intrigued” - are excessively abundant and offer little to no insight whatsoever. It plainly seems that their criticism is hampered by the fact that they just don’t want to say anything negative about a movie out of fear of losing access to ... more

  • Yes I'll listen weekly, however..

    Regardless of the fact that we’re most likely all on the same political aisle, the main host comes off as pompous and seems like no one id like to hang out with IRL. The other contributors are who I come to this very listenable podcast, (you know what I mean?) 🤢🤮

  • A great awards podcast and an awful film criticism podcast

    Please please stop saying “unless if….” at the beginning of sentences.

    A major issue with the pod is the hosts’ lack of eloquence and coherence when it comes to reviewing films. Phrases like “I enjoyed myself” “I had a good time” or “I’m intrigued” - are so overused and offer little to no insight whatsoever.

    This podcast is really insightful when it comes to keeping up with the major awards races, as the hosts do indeed follow the trends and seem to have some access to the industry insiders.
