It is a joy to hear a group having so much fun and offering a unique opening into the final scene of films. I appreciate that they don’t want to always to agree with the mass and popular reviews as they take the time to share their... more

  • Kinda Frustrating

    The personalities of Sophie, Ben, and Simon are often times fun. Their chemistry as friends can be felt, and that’s half the battle. But the discussions, dissections, and analysis here is wanting.

  • Eh

    The Scorsese episode made me lose a little respect for everyone on this podcast. Honestly wasn’t too impressed before that episode. When I saw they were doing an episode on Scorsese and The Departed I was excited. Then was let down pretty quick.
