Intelligent, Insightful and Amusing
Jason Solomons presents a well observed film magazine programme. The reviews are intelligent and balanced, without the genre bias that comes with Kermode. The interviews are lively with an emphasis on the films rather than the personalities. Jason is joined by The Guardian's Xan Brooks who adds to the reviews and features. Solomons and Brooks are both amiable, offering an intelligent and accessible film podcast.Read full review »

More reviews of The Guardian's Film Weekly
This is a great show - a little too short, I'd love it if each episode was twice as long. You can't really relax into listening to a podcast that's too short but regardless the reviews here are thoughtful, insightful and well-informed - more please!Read full review »

I have been listening for ages now and this podcast is improving constantly, I think you need to listen to Jason and Xan for a while to 'get' their style of reviewing but I think it makes an excellent alternative to the two Dr's. Keep up tue good work guys :-)Read full review »

I cannot believe this was cancelled. It was absolutely awesome and also complemented Kermode et al. The formula of interview + reviews was excellent. Plus Solomons was a much needed champion of British cinema.
