Film Sack has been around so long that the hosts have developed their own language and inside jokes. The podcast began its run in 2009. Over the years, it has only become more enjoyable. The panel has established a rhythm where they know when to quip and when it's time for a profound discussion. However, nothing they say is ever that serious. After all, it's a show about movies that are fan favorites despite their lack of critical acclaim. It provides ample opportunities for the hosts to criticize them without mercy.

Episodes of Film Sack follow a known format, one that the hosts perfected over the many years of the podcast. It starts with a short clip from the movie, teasing the fun yet to come. Next, each panelist introduces themselves and shares their opinion of the film. It moves to a short plot summary, which professional voice actor Scott Fletcher reads out. From that point on is the real meat of the podcast. It's an hour-long discussion (sometimes more) of what makes the film so great and the things that make no sense.

Usually, there will be some division between the panelists' opinions. Some will completely adore the movie, while others think it's trash. They spend most of the podcast trying to convince the others to switch sides. The lighthearted debates often criticize the directing, acting, plot holes, and more. The arguments are always knowledgeable, as well as entertaining.

One of the most delightful parts of Film Sack is its many segments. For instance, whenever a movie trope comes up, there's a red alert sound. It can be the witty side character or the Black person who dies at the beginning of the horror movie. Another fun segment is where the hosts search for the connection the film has to Star Trek. They also offer fictional awards and read out listeners' emails. After every episode, they give a short, 280-character summary of the discussion. Film fans of all levels may appreciate this podcast.
