“The podcast is so good and the male host is excellent, but the female who I know is a critic, is soooo pretentious.”

“Amy and Paul are charming and insightful hosts who discuss film in a way that is approachable without being shallow, and intelligent while never being haughty. I look forward to every episode. They’ve changed the way I watch movies for the better. Thanks to you both.”

“I like this one. Hosts don’t have any whiny, ticky box woke agendas we have to suffer through like so many podcasts have these days. Just well researched, passionate views and opinions of the actual movie. Exactly what it should be. Take note other podcast hosts with podcasts in the same...”Read full review »

“Intelligent, funny, entertaining. These guys are the best hands down. Amy reminds me of the Edward Hopper painting of the girl in the theatre, Paul reminds me of what a friend should be but never is.”

“Thank you for your insightful review of Jesus Christ Superstar! I saw this movie when I was 7 years old. Maybe I was a bit young to see it, but JCS made a huge impact on me! I memorized every word to every song of this brilliant rock opera!
Love you Amy and Paul! Keep up the great work!”

“I love movies, movie podcasts, Paul and HDTGM, and I have tried to love this but it’s just not consistent.
I cringe frequently when Amy speaks because she inevitably has a personal issue with a filmmaker that often has very little to do with the film itself. Or it dredges up some memory for her...”Read full review »

“Why didn’t you do a bit of research on how to pronounce Mozart? It was so distracting that I couldn’t finish the episode. You seriously don’t know that it’s Mots-art?”

“I enjoyed this when they were doing the AFI list, but now that they’ve moved on it’s impossible to get past the feeling you’re listening to an audiobook of a middle-schooler’s Tumblr page.”

“and usually enjoy these reviews which make me want to rewatch the classics. The latest episode on Amadeus though, was ridiculous. They mispronounced Mozart the entire time! HOW HOW HOW. Was so distracting I had to turn it off. You can’t just mispronounce the name of the most famous composer ever.”

“Used to listen to this pod bc I like movies and am interested in the breakdown and behind the scenes stuff. I stopped bc I can’t stand Amy’s takes as they are all so much about her personal issues and past. Was bored and listen to the Ferris episode and yet again she is back at it ripping on...”Read full review »

“I, somehow, just made it through the entirety of the Goodfellas episode and, for as long as the episode was, I didn’t get too much out of this.
I think Paul Scheer is a funny, intelligent person and this was my first exposure to Amy. What I can say is that these two are on a collision course and...”Read full review »

“fantastic in-depth adult discussion of film. Really enjoy the hosts different backgrounds. They both seem like people I would love to hang out and watch movies with just to have the discussion afterwards. Some of the hot takes can seem clunky but I know they are coming from a good place”

“Both of them are way too woke to analyze movies in a non-biased way. I love the selections, but if there’s anything even remotely demeaning to women in a movie, or women don’t get enough lines, or WHATEVER they feel somehow cheats women, it’s going to get discussed throughout the review. If Amy...”Read full review »

“All in all, I love this podcast. I’ll listen to an episode about a movie that I’ve seen dozens of times, and without fail, Amy and Paul will present a fact or perspective or message from the film that I’ve never considered. I appreciate how the podcast has evolved over time; the original premise...”Read full review »

“On the Rocky Horror Picture Show:
“I have seen this movie SO many times! At the beginning when Brad and Janet are getting married…”
Brad and Janet are at someone else’s wedding. They aren’t getting married. That’s a huge part of the movie’s plot.
Sloppy. Stopped listening at this point.”

“I like the hosts fine, but the podcast has really abandoned its premise of finding the best 100 American Movies. Most of the movies they discuss now are from the late 80’s and early 90’s. They are just doing the same thing they criticized the AFI for doing by picking only a certain type of movie...”Read full review »
