    Fun and in Depth but…
    I would love a beeped version of every episode. I’d listen to EVERY ONE. I love it but can do without all the blue language.
  • CJLove88
    Informative but Disjointed
    Podcast Review King says “Fun and lighthearted movie review show.” Bill Simmons quarterbacks the reviews with his insights and background. The co hosts are also hilarious as they provide hysterical insights. The one flaw is the disjointed flow of the show. The hosts tend to jump and bounce around in regard to the plot. Be best to break down movie sequentially. Perhaps mentioning the awards at the end. “

    More Diverse Cohosts
    A casually misogynistic circle jerk at times.

    Meet the Parents episode
    Stick to reviewing movies, leave Randy Newman alone. He’s only one of the best musical artists this country has ever produced!
  • Schooner85
    Gladiator
    Can we get a Gladiator rewatchable ahead of the sequel?
  • Tickleytiffers
    Good but some flaws
    I do like this podcast. I wish they would do more of a play by play or synopsis of the actual movies but it’s more of them just spitting out random facts about the movie, actors, filmmakers, etc. Then they will cover their favorite scenes or most re-watchable scenes. Sometimes they can be obnoxious or go on a tangent about random stuff. They have a nice flow together though. I just wish they would cover more in depth the play by play of the scenes and not be so all over the place with their discussions.

    Disgusting
    Bill Simmons is a gross sounding, pedantic, irrelevant fool. Stop talking about sports on a movie podcast, idiot!
  • wm1793
    Body double
    Bill always sounds really gross when he talks about erotic movies and scenes or women in general. Very very creepy vibes. Side note: Van Lathan is insufferable.
  • Bfaps
    Awesome
    I’m not that tech savvy and this is the only podcast I listen to, it’s dope. Not every movie they review I’m a fan of, but that’s the beauty of subjectivity! Wish they’d expand to include a few more modern horror movies too, that’s my only gripe. Was weird seeing a review for Halloween 4 when there isn’t one for movies like Saw, It, Us, etc.
  • bresson ford
    Great Wes Anderson episode
    I wish this podcast was hosted by Chris, Sean and Andy. or I think that those guys should have their own podcast. Edit for Halloween 4: please no more Van Lathan
  • Debpo
    Love it!
    I can’t believe I’m still waiting for Big Trouble in Little China with Kyle Brandt. He hit a HR with Over the Top and a grand slam with Cobra. Bang some axes together and get on this immediately.

    CR Obnoxious screaming
    I’m trying to relax and enjoy the pulp fiction podcast and I’m suddenly jolted by someone screaming some stupid impersonation of someone it wasn’t CR but of course he has to join in. IM WEARING EARBUDS YOURE YELLING RIGHT INTO MY EARS!!! It’s not funny. !

    So much editing on the silence of the lambs pod that we feel jerked around a bit. Maybe a live audience isn't a good fit for this show? They just aren’t as funny as they think they are. But at least Mal didn’t soak herself over Harrison Ford in this one.
  • Tom Cole Filmmaker
    Just discovered and love!
    I think im addicted- ive been listening none stop! Love the banter! Love the passion!

    Wayne Jenkins Supercut Part Duex?
    Loved having CR’s best voice impression ever used in a Baltimore/DC movie!! I’d like to have it in every Rewatchables INCLUDING past ones b4 he first used it. Come on Ringer give us an updated Supercut on YouTube…and think about Chris adding to every previous one (that Wayne fits in) as a side project!
  • Enjoy Prog
    Best Podcast
    I’ve been listening to all the movie review podcasts out there and yours is the best. Format is great and the personalities really shine through. I’m waiting for “Almost Famous” and “That Thing You Do” to be reviewed. Keep up the great work!
  • smellybug
    Guys please
    The Poltergeist ep. You would think if one were to spend an hour or two reviewing/discussing a film, they would take 30 seconds out of their day to look up the pronunciation of directors name, not laugh it off like it’s not important. I love/hate this podcast.
  • demisec44
    Poltergeist
    What happened? This is a great movie - the first GREAT movie you’ve done in a while and you were all over the place. Would you listen to this 95 mins pod? I’m not so sure you would. Off roading and out of focus.
  • Manny CR
    Had a rough patch but got better again!
    I didn’t like the second phase of the podcast but with Inglorious Basterds and specially No Country for Old Men, it came back to being as good as it was in the beginning! And you reach the top when you discuss Horror Films! So so good to include THIS IS THE END!!!!!! Loved The Blair Witch Project!
  • Jdn2222
    Changes for the Worse
    Used to listen to rewatchables and always enjoyed both the commentary & interaction between hosts & guess. Just listened to Twister - terrible. Unnecessarily Vulgar (Van) - so much chatter - off track - incredibly disappointed as I used to love rewatchables.
  • Durham PG
    Brandt? Blech!
    Every time I see Kyle Brandt’s name I feel nauseous. Then I skip the episode. That guy has a bit too much Brett Kavanaugh in him if you know what I mean
  • nattybroda
    Favorite- Guilt Free Listening
    Bill crushes this show which has risen to the top of my podcast rotation. With endless episodes that cover all your childhood and early adult favorite movies. Would recommend to all X10!
  • michel de morale
    Chris, Sean, and Andy rule
    Recently discovered this pod and it’s a lot of fun a lot of the time. My sensibilities skew towards the named dudes, and I hope they get to explore more arty and recent movies Bill won’t do.
  • Triota7
    Theon’s name
    It’s Theon Greyjoy, boys. Aside from this egregious, repeated error, great pod.
  • Pinktex17
    More Shea!!!
    Serrano is never a bad addition.
  • teish8
    i’m going to need some Sean and Mal
    I need the intellectual weight of Sean and Mallory to balance the vacuous and bro-y energy of the last 2 films
  • KXYLE360
    Not What It Used To Be
    I used to (re)listen to nearly all early episodes - it was like experiencing truly rewatchable movies through conversation with your friends. Now I skip a majority of the movies they cover as they’re usually obscure (not in a cool way) choices that were important to Bill in his teen & college years. Or they feature Van “wypipo be raciss” Lathan talking about his daddy’s porn addiction. If they were to segment The Rewatchables into different shows it could give them the spark they seem to be searching for: -Prestige Rewatchables for Sean & Chris to cover films like Lawrence of Arabia or The Wild Bunch that Bill won’t do. -Black Rewatchables for Van to talk about any movie with a black character to meet the diversity quota. -Lady Rewatchables for Mallory & Amanda to discuss Clueless, Little Women, or any chick flick. -The main feed can continue to include Bill’s bizarre personal taste in movies. In its current form, the show will continue to devolve into silly categories and inside jokes until they lose all of their core audience. I always wondered why Tarantino hasn’t made another appearance since his trilogy back in 2020. He must have realized the show is not what it used to be.

  • Buchecha24
    Newer-ish movies maybe?
    Love the pod and especially the trio of Bill, Chris, and Sean. I do wish some more movies made after 2010 were done though. I’m still waiting/hoping they do Big Short and Baby Driver
  • Microphone buy one
    Wesley
    Nooooo! Get a microphone I want to hear what you have to say. Please work on the sound.

    Do the five heart beats
    You should a Five Heartbeats Rewatchable show!!!!
  • LB Jeffries
    What’s Not to Like?
    Bill, Sean and Chris are the perfect combo. Even if I don’t know or like the movie, I will usually listen if it’s those three hosting. Bill is hilarious even when he’s being Peak Gen X. Chris and Sean are the perfect foils for his tastes and humor. Three smart guys talking about movies, what’s not to like?
  • mgw_0315
    Don’t end
    I love this podcast and recalling the movies I love and even those I somehow missed and then discover. Whether it’s great 70s sports films, Kramer vs Kramer, action films, you name it. There’s always a lively discussion that inevitably sends me to indeed rewatching these movies. I heard the pod is ending this year. Life is hard in 2024, please keep it rolling. Thanks Bill and the gang.
  • annoyed phillies fan
    Starting to fall off
    Been listening to this pod since the beginning and it’s always been great. Just realized after the disaster of Grand Budapest that the pod will never work without Bill. Keep the pretenious film talk over on the terrible Big Picture and Watch podcasts. Keep this one actually fun and entertaining. Also, the liberal garbage that spews, not so subtly, from a few hosts incessantly is a quick way to drop your audience. Too many other podcasts out there to go to that focuses on movies, not your political opinions
  • Tenoshoes
    Great Show
    Love the show but when Mallory Rubin shows up I skip the episode. Her voice/screaming makes the show unbearable
  • McMack1120
    Grand Budape-zzzzzzzzzzzzz
    Goodness, what a ponderous unfun look at a funny, entertaining movie. Couldn’t finish, but the amount I did hear rather than making me want to rewatch the film, actually made me want to never see it again. This ep was literally the antithesis of what this show is supposed to be.
  • Hayleynilsen
    Define “Rewatchable?”
    No one has ever heard of this movie. How can it be rewatchable? Love this podcast, but please cover movie that people have actually seen. Disappointed!
  • Uh...ok
    Great stuff!
    I love the podcast. The hosts always deliver and talk out all the the things that must be discussed in my opinion. I really am dying for a few movies to be on the Pod though. Where is RoboCop, Braveheart, 1989 Batman?!
  • 7@65432677adg467
    Developing into a parody of itself
    Recently i had cause to listen to some episodes from the early days and was struck by how much quieter they were and that they focused on the movies themselves rather than the schtick of the hosts. The idea was great and i shared in the joy of revisiting these movies almost as if i were watching it again (really a fan of the audio clips). I realize there are not an infinite number of these but many of the later selections are not in the same rewatchable vein. Great movies can be one offs and terrible movies can be rewatchable favorites, that’s part of the fun. There are simply too many categories, what's next “best left-handed extra”? The what’s aged the best/worst has devolved into a trite competition of who can name the silliest element in the film. Then there is the host problem, when there are guests it’s dialed back a bit but the voices simply have to stop, they are excruciating. I’m still a fan but would like to see a return to the earlier style of the podcast.
  • Estone2112
    Hit or miss
    Great idea for a pod. Most of the analysis is interesting. Half the categories are kinda dumb and Chris Ryan single-handedly ruins episodes. Someone please tell him he’s not funny.
  • FJNINJA
    Relistenable! This is my favorite Podcast!!
    I find this podcast very enjoyable. I often listen to the podcasts before I even see the movie. Typically, the podcasts are more enjoyable than the movie. Can we get Braveheart already?!!!!
  • heynowniceshot
    Great nostalgia factor but one note
    Huge fan of this pod esp when the movie is truly a rewatchable. Bill and Sean are always top of their game and add great insight but I will say, someone needs to tell CR to stop yelling and tell him he’s just not funny. At all! Could easily find someone else to replace him, so outside of CRs yelling, a wonderful pod.
  • Sellfone
    Good podcast, but…
    Overall, this podcast led by the main host is a good one for movie fans. However, I happened to catch an episode where Jimmy Kimmel was the cohost and his presence very quickly reminded me what a talentless, clueless, unfunny person he is. Judging from other reviews, please be careful with what cohost you guys choose…maybe pick people who actually know something about movies.
  • 07isweebey
    Enough
    No more Wane Jenkins please. Played.
  • Ryno0350
    Great pod!
    Love the episodes where I’ve seen the movie!
  • Apartstar
    Misnomer does not mean what you think it means
    mis·no·mer noun a wrong or inaccurate name or designation It does not mean a misconception!!!!!!
  • Flaubert’s Underpants
    The Wild Bunch (1969)
    You guys reference Sam Peckinpah and The Wild Bunch all the time. Please do an episode about it.
  • The Yates'
    I Be Broke
    Can you please do more movies that are on streaming platforms currently so I don’t have to buy/rent the movie to listen to an episode… side note… if it’s not on the platform that I pay for already, I’m not buying/renting and also not listening to the episode
  • Frittz618
    The Martian
    Great podcast on the Martian. Bill, how do you discuss great montage scenes and not mention Jeremiah Johnson? I’ve heard you talk about how your Dad calls you with “some say he’s up there still…” That acoustic background music to the Crows coming after him one at a time, man that’s the greatest montage ever. Saw in the theater when I was 11 in 72 and that montage has always stuck with me. If you haven’t done JJ, I hope you do soon. Get your Dad in on that one. Dave F
