Bill Simmons for the win

Very funny and entertaining pod, would be a 5 star but Mallory Rubin’s annoying voice brings it down 2 stars!

Stumbled into this, now we are sprinting!!! The Ben, Kyle and Ryne combo is pure entertainment!! Time for gymkata, out for justice and KKIII.. keep banging out top shelf work

All The Right Moves Do the whole cannon

Thank you Bill, Sean, and Chris! Can a long time fan since the Boston Phoenix articles make two requests? 1. Can we ( I say we) Re- The Warriors (love Shea but he didn’t like the movie) or 2. Let Kyle and Mallory cook independently for the Lord of the Rings trilogy I know Chris and Sean have Xmas connection, but Mal and Kyle are passionate about it. Thank you for all the free content, insightful break downs, inside jokes, and endless laughs!!! You guys are the best!!!

Pod was a must listen w Bill, Chris & Sean!

This is not a review, it’s a suggestion. It’s a classic with Sean Penn, Robin Wright, Gary Oldman and Ed Harris.

Hey Bill, how’s that massive doge dong taste? Listening to Bill and Chris compare the dystopia of fight club to January 6 is comedic, genius, or just two crybabies who suffered from TDS. How’s that playing out for you guys in 2025? Poor sweethearts, always gotta bring politics into everything. This podcast was good, until you both went full, “the view”, on me. JFC, get a grip.

Elisabeth Shue has not won an Oscar. How do you guys make that mistake more than once?

If Van is involved. I’m out. Sick of the perpetual racism talk

editors note: I am actually giving this show SIX stars specifically for Van clearing out the riffraff. 🤠 Legitimately I had no idea who Bill was but he brings a lot of my favorite people on to talk about films that I should know about (but don’t because I was raised in a cult!) so here I am! ☺️

...the one dude who finds it funny to obnoxiously yell and cuss is utterly irritating. Also, Van is getting tedious with his cussing and race talk. Sick of the race stuff. Otherwise, a great show with great viewpoints. The show is very well organized and thought out except for that one guy who finds it funny to yell at the top of his lungs while cursing up a storm. That's when I sometimes turn it off because he goes on and on with it. Really could do without that. Also, I hate the live shows. They always play it up for the audience in the stands, and it is annoying.

So close to a great show. Always enjoyable aside from the one guy who insists on screaming his annoying “impressions” that all sound the same.

That’s it. That’s the review. No more Van!

I wish Bill would let someone else pick the movies once in a while; “Crash,” “Project X,” “Devil’s Advocate,” and “Blackhat” were all terrible movies.

The show is good but Van’s episodes are a skip. He goes on and on with no endless racial blather and dumb comics references.

Big fan of The Rewatchables podcast. The Days of Thunder episode was a 10/10 - perfection. Incredible energy, great takes, excellent insights. Bill, CR & Kyle made this podcast so enjoyable. Love Craig’s insights as well. Maybe the Days of Thunder title had nothing to do with the screen movie and was describing Jerry/Don’s lifestyle during the shoot? Anyway, keep up the amazing work!!

You guys are great, all of you!! Rewatchable suggestion: Funny Farm!

Love the podcast. But can Simmons not be on every single one? I have your takes down. Might be nice to hear someone else. I want you on most of them but sometimes I could use a new take. Your Marvel takes are boring. We get it. I’m not a huge fan of Marvel, but to pretend they don’t exist is exhausting.

Find a movie you adore and listen to clever, funny movie enthusiasts dissect the film in insightful, humorous ways. After a while you’ll pick out the good cohosts (CR, Sean, Kyle Brandt, Van Lathan, Serrano) from the ones to avoid (Mallory Rubin).

I love this podcast. It always provides lots of entertainment, even if I haven’t seen the film. I am also leaving a review of five stars because there are so many crybaby right wing douche bags, whining in the comments and low ranking the Pod. Wahhhhh!

Love the Rewatchables. Van has me skipping episodes when he is involved. I don’t believe my post will make much of an impact but many others have the same take. Love the show though….

He blathers on and on with nothing funny or insightful to say. Also, not everything is about race.

Shows ok but can’t stand Van. Big shock, all he talks about is race. It is pathetic and such a beta male thing. They will never give him the boot though because they have to “check the box”.

Crash podcasts was terrible had to turn it off after 30 minutes

So many times while listening I want to throw my phone across the room. Latest time: Maura Tierney played Annabelle in The Replacements, not Brooke Langdon!!!!

Great podcast, definitely geared towards movie buffs and cinephiles like me!

Constantly bringing up cocaine in every pod is very annoying

Just listened to the "Before Sunset" pod...just incredible! I'm 54 and these movies were so integral to my youth and view on relationships/that quest for the one...the soulmate. Quick question, was I the only one who watched "Thirtysomething" in high school and wanted a Hope as a future wife?

Unless you have seen the film they are discussing 20 times you can't follow along and the tangents are eye-rolling

Mallory ruins this one with just awful input that’s clearly informed by the third film (which is her favorite). Takes away from the magic that the second film has

LA Confidential???

CR, please do this!

In the mailbag episode a listener claimed it wasn’t piano wire but a saw at the end of Hereditary. It actually was piano wire. Recommend referring to original scripts for fact checking: “As Peter enters the hallway, a SHARP CLANGING SOUND is heard downstairs. Peter freezes. A sustained REVERB fills the house. It sounded like it came from a piano.” “Peter notices the PIANO. It seems to have been tampered with. The lid is open and a couple of the wires have been SNAPPED.” “ANNIE is huddled up into a corner of the ceiling. Her face is twisted with grief and fear, and she is shaking her head - “no, no, no, no, no” - as if pleading with the back of Peter’s head, like a frightened animal. She holds PIANO WIRE, pulling it taut with both hands. Wringing blood.” “ANNIE has somehow gotten in. She floats weightlessly in the air. (She is faintly illuminated by a candle below her.) She has looped the PIANO WIRE around her own NECK, which is already straining blood. She TUGS on one end of the wire. It SAWS through her neck. She TUGS on the other end of the wire. It saws even deeper.”

Great pod, but the 80’s cocaine jokes from Bill are tiresome. We get it, cocaine was big in the 80’s, but mentioning it on every pod makes one think he may or may not partaken more than once. Leave it alone, dude.

I’m late to the party but I can’t get enough. My favorite new podcast.

I am 60 and enjoy the same movies that Bill does. I enjoy his reviews and laugh at a lot of the banter and silliness he and the other hosts produce. A great podcast, very entertaining!

Such a tired and I need to sound like a G and very cool.. stop saying Joint .. everyone knows that but The one who says it . White washed jeans

Man this whole producer Craig is a millennial who’s never seen anything is ridiculous. Idk why he even comes on, he obviously doesn’t care for these movies because how is it 2024/25 and he’s never seen the movie FNL or the show!? He’s the same age as me and it’s just pointless to have someone who doesn’t care on. Idk if it’s a schtick for the pod but I immediately shut it off anytime they mention he’s coming on to provide “the young person perspective” give me a break

I love when Van is on the show. You guys are a lot of fun together. You two have great chemistry. Sonya

Ever since this podcast was recommended to me, I have been listening to it weekly. Helps me get through my work day. As a fellow movie lover I really enjoy listening to the show. Would like to see a couple of classic 90s action movies done in the future.

Why don’t you listen to your loyal listeners and fans? There is not one positive review on here for Van, yet tons of reviews saying he ruins the pod.

A casually misogynistic circle jerk at times. Bad live audio. Like every time.

Anything without Van is a great pod but if he is in there it’s basically signaling a C movie and his tmz style takes.

Mount Rushmore of blackjack scenes: rain man, the hangover ("splitting fives!"), Austin powers, swingers

I’m a big fan of the Rewatchables! Bill is an awesome anchor for the show and I love all of the guests, especially CR, Van, and Kyle. It’s so much fun to get everyone’s takes on these classics in a fun a lighthearted way and I’ve also found some new faves from listening. Movies are supposed to be fun and this show legit has me cackling each episode. The Longlegs impressions truly take me out. I’m so here for it. Long live the Rewatchables xoxo

Great idea for a pod and this was super fun earlier: Good insight and recaps. Lately,The movie choices have been rough and the attempts at humor, which have always been unbearable, have become downright annoying (particularly “CR” who is very not funny) The newer categories are kinda dumb. Might be time to retire.

After your party is completely ruined this country I can’t believe that you have the nuts to continue to degrade Trump and his constituents. Shame on you.

Five-star-pod when it’s just Bill and Kyle. Four-star-pod when it’s Bill, Sean, and Chris (Chris’ voice can get tiring). Skippable pod when it’s Bill and any of those women, Van, and beyond. That Van fella stinks. The range in quality on this pod is puzzling.

Educate yourselves. Read Jane Austen. Read Ibsen. Read George Bernard Shaw. Edna St. Vincent Millay.
