Reviews
- Amateur
The guy who goes by “Dr. Z” really doesn’t have a clue. He makes Game of Thrones references when discussing great works of cinema, it’s so cringe. Please, you are not smart enough to be doing this, that’s not your fault but someone needs to tell you that!

Listened to the episode on Personal Shopper looking for some perspective and found nothing resembling analysis or thoughtful critique.
Apple Podcasts1jmsalvatoreUnited States2 years ago - Good podcast
This is definitely a great podcast. The hosts are knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to. A large number of the films covered are less well known which is pretty unique.
Apple Podcasts5SnarkystagUnited States6 years ago - Love this podcast!
If you like movies, you should listen to these guys. They normally review from the criterion collection but they also take some nice detours (like their Sandlot podcast, wich I loved). You'll have something cool to listen each thursday, so sobscribe.

Mexico7 years ago - Great commentary, great entertainment
The thing I like the most is their banter. It makes movies that I grew up watching take on a whole new life. Really refreshing!
Apple Podcasts5spyrofirestormUnited States7 years ago - Always an adventure!
I happen to know the guys from this show but even if I didn't this would still be my go to film podcast. Hilarious but not forced they take you on an adventure through movie buffland few have the guts to explore. They do not shy away from some of the most cringe worthy films ever made but balance it out with classics. Don't worry if you haven't watched some of the films, the hosts do a great job of making you feel like part of the fun! You won't be sorry!
Apple Podcasts5ShephelkUnited States7 years ago - Excellent Podcast
This is one of my go to film podcasts. Great descriptions and smart hosts!
Apple Podcasts5jfleschnUnited States7 years ago - Calling All Movie Buffs & Film Geeks
The Criterion Correction, hosted by Ed & Dr. Zed, is one part insightful commentary, one part nerdy banter, and one part wholesome snark. The selection of movies is vast and variable, with fair distribution of coverage for new releases and old favorites alike. Sometimes the movies are good - sometimes they're terrible - but no matter the film's shortcomings, the recap in the Criterion Correction is always a winner. So if you're looking for wit and intelligent humor combined with a healthy dose o... more
