Customer Reviews
Emily is a delight and so smart!
A must listen if you want excellent movie analysis and a smart & fresh perspective. I discovered Emily because of her work with Iliza. Now I delight in listening to her excellent movie analyses. Keep up the work Emily… love it!!
We loves tasteless
Emily is so funny and has a great opions of movies along with some obscure recommendations we’ve turned out to love. Emily does a wonderful job on this podcast giving notice of spoilers and is mindful that everyone had their own perspective on a movie. She does a tireless and thankless job of keeping up with this podcast and needs more appreciation!
Witty, insightful, well-paced
I relish finding out which movie moments perplexed or delighted Emily Higgins. Her analysis and linkage of the movie pairings is unique and insightful. One classic excellent episode is ‘A Hero Lies in You: Star Wars vs Spy.’
