In The Movie-Maker Podcast, we dissect a film that we believe showed great promise and had some excellent ideas and elements, but the execution fell short of its potential. We take a deep dive into the chosen high-profile Hollywood films, identifying what we believe is flawed, highlighting what we think is strong, and offering our own perspective on how to improve them. Along the way, we’ll delve into movies not just as an art form, but also as a form of pop culture, entertainment, and commerce.
