“I enjoy the podcast. I miss Eric’s taste + opinions, can’t believe it but sometimes i miss the constant interrupting and talking over each other. Ryan is a better fit with Anne. The all year round-non stop award talk can get a bit tedious, but overall I appreciate the insight into the biz side +...”Read full review »

“Love the show for its insight into the movie business and film festivals in general, but it drives me crazy to hear the moderators’ mispronunciation of Luca Guadagnino’s name every single time. It’s [ˈluːka ɡwadaɲˈɲiːno]. Please get it right! Saying it wrongly takes away a great deal of your...”Read full review »

“Loving the switch, with sadly Eric departing, to Anne as main host and RYAN! He has such great energy. The podcast feels more exciting and high energy. Much more pleasurable to the ear. Go Ryan!”

“Anne Thompson continues to ably host with a varied array of guests. I’ll miss Eric Kohn but look forward to seeing him elsewhere.
I’ll tune in every time to learn more about the machinations of film, so please keep it up!”

“I will also echo what other reviewers say. I really enjoy the content and their discussions, however. Does Anne really have to force her way into every sentence Eric has?
When I listen to the podcast on some episodes, it was irritating. I really want to hear what Eric has to say and sometimes...”Read full review »

“The interruptions from Anne are becoming almost intolerable. I would like to hear from both her and Eric who are both knowledgeable. Perhaps separate podcasts because it appears she can’t stop herself and he is too nice.”

“Great insight and good discussions but Anne is constantly interrupting at mid sentence her co-host.
Which is very annoying and disrespectful.
You can tell she has passion for the topic but needs to calm down and let other people finish their thoughts.”

“This has the chance to be a great film podcast, but you have two very strongly opinionated critics that don’t let each other finish their thoughts. It’s less listening to each other and more I need to get my opinion out before you.”

“This reminded me of people talking over each other at a dinner table! It was mostly her. Can she let him get to the end of his sentence and they say hers? It’s hard to follow this level of interruption on a podcast.”

“They’re great except yes, she does interrupt him all the time. I’ve never heard anyone interrupt someone that much on a podcast. But they are not snobs, as some have complained. And the sound quality is fine”

But now that Anne has been away for a bit, it’s clear that without their dynamic there is no show. And frankly Eric needs to kept in check as is very apparent when left to his own devices....”Read full review »

“Not sure why Anne thinks it’s cool to spoil movies that she discusses. Telling us that characters die in a movie is typically a spoiler. Especially if audiences know zero about the film besides the basic plot. She’s done this on more than one occasion.”

“Dear Anne,
I admire your work and you’re great at what you do. But can you please, please stop spoiling movies that the public won’t get a chance to see for months.
This isn’t just connected to The Power of the Dog. This problem has been an issue for years now with you.
Hope you see this.”
