A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Long time listener. This podcast got me through good times and bad times alike. It just helps to listen these guys talk about cinema and all the things they love. Thank you

Lisdi711 · Mar 2025

I enjoy this show… don’t always agree with their reviews and that’s great because it opens my mind. The only negative is that they all feel the need to inject current political commentary into every episode. I agree with their slanted politics (90%) but do I need to hear people talking down to those who don’t follow their ideals? Every-time they bring up politics I feel like turning the podcast off. (I have a few times) I feel for the 60% of listeners who don’t agree with their politics, who are annoyed. This is a film review show… not a political discourse. Please stop the commentary… it’s very amateur. Lead by example! Don’t be the CNN or Fox News of film reviews shows… we come to your show to escape the media bias.

Come for the reviews; stay for the vibes. I love the chemistry on this show. It feels like exactly what it is: three friends sitting down for an hour to talk about movies.

Allie Thomas Superstar · Aug 2024

I’ve been listening to the Filmcast nearly every week since 2008. The chemistry of the hosts feels like a warm hug and I look so very forward to popping on the newest episode every Tuesday on my way home from work and let the world fade away. Honestly they are better than ASMR to my world weary ears each week (and not in a weird way). Thanks guys!!!!

NYCDrinker · Jul 2024

I unsubscribed because, as many other recent reviews mention, the political content is smarmy and insufferable. Somehow themes of every single movie or show they review reflects “the recent election” or “the state of the country”. Truly groundbreaking observations. There are so many better film podcasts to listen to including those with left wing views such as Double Toasted.

Thediscerninglistener · Dec 2024

I have listened to this podcast for years. I liked the intelligent discussions. I end up deleting many episodes now without listening as there is way too much discussion of superhero movies. I don’t understand why they have switched their focus.
