“After listen to the mother! Episode, in which the hosts bickered; and one of the hosts got upset that he had to talk about the movie; that is the mark of a good critic, one who can articulate himself; they had to get another host on for the second half episode, I knew I was done. The chemistry is...”Read full review »

“I have been listening to this wonderful (and sometimes wild) podcast for over a year now. Brian has been asking almost every episode for people to leave reviews and I always tell myself, "I'll do it later." WELL HERE YA GO BRIAN! I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY. I REALLY ENJO THE PODCAST AND I'M SORRY IT...”Read full review »

“As someone that studied theory, I LOVE it when critics talk as much about a film as they do about their job critiquing it, the obstacles, the intrigues, and the joys of it.”

“Long time listener. One of my absolute favourite podcasts on film. Have been compelled to write a review so to say, can we please get more Lightning Round episodes!? Your last episode ranks in my all time top 10 podcast episodes (air horn sound to signal the end of this comment).”

“This show is consistently entertaining and always funny. Differing opinions are welcome and often encouraged with plenty of time given to each person to argue their case. Only occasionally does the excellent host Brian J Roan resort to threatening physical bodily harm to those that disagree with...”Read full review »

“I love this podcast despite the fact that the host (Brian) sometimes makes me want to smash things against the wall and write strongly worded emails (although provoking a reaction like that is better than no reaction at all, isn't it?). Great, in-depth film reviews, insightful comments and...”Read full review »

“I only listen to a few podcasts, but TFSS is easily towards the top of my list. The banter is fun & the film criticism is insightful. While discussions over "heady" films are mentally stimulating, the Batman v. Superman episode will always be my favorite, due to the hyperbolic rhetoric on both...”Read full review »

“I’m a new Film Stage listener and I’m really enjoying the podcast thus far. I love discussing film but can rarely find people enthusiastic about the art of filmmaking to have an honest dialogue with, so listening to you guys is great. It’s really entertaining, albeit exasperating, to hear the...”Read full review »

“This is easly one of my favorite film-related podcasts. I do, however, miss the brief line-up of Brian, Amanda, and Nick. It was the perfect balance of populist and artistic sensibilities. That being said, all of the contributers know their stuff and keep it lively, especially when it turns...”Read full review »

“Doge meme aside, what a wonderful podcast! I’m not much of a movie watcher, but I do enjoy listening to this... Mostly because the host (Brian? I think...) has a soothing voice, but also because now I can know a detailed interpretation of a movie without even watching it. Laziness at a whole new...”Read full review »

I welcome listening to different tastes, but there is one guy with a monotone voice (I don't recall his name) that's smart, but cynical. I find it bothersome becase I end up not learning anything, which...”Read full review »

“Two months ago I would have given the podcast five stars, but as of late it has become quite smug.

The last review of "The...”Read full review »
