Since 2016, podcasting legend Jeff Cannata has delighted The Filmcast listeners with show-stopping movie reviews in poetic form. Now, lovers of the silver screen can enjoy reels of these laugh-out-loud limericks in Best Summed Up: a must-have quiz compendium for cinephiles.

From applauding filmmaking mastery in box office sell-outs to damning dismissals of action big hitters that have missed the mark, Cannata critiques every genre of contemporary film and unpicks all must-see releases from 2018 to 2024 with his signature wit and wisdom.

The challenge is simple: readers must identify the film described by each verse in five, delightfully moreish levels of brain-teasing poems. So grab some popcorn and see if you can achieve award-winning status of your own by completing the ultimate test for movie buffs.

The plot’s machinations? Absurd!

There’s no time? Well, I’d have preferred

A few scenes ejected

So I’d be affected

’Cause I was just shaken – not stirred

Clue: Can’t fit death in the schedule
