Join us this week as we discuss this staple in 1999 sport movie repertoire! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

Enthralling from start to finish and probably one of the more popular and successful films we've reviewed here at I Finally Watched...

She's All That (1999) is a wild ride and from we can tell, the pinnacle film of the 90s. With that, the circle is complete, or as complete as we'd like it for this month, but don't worry folks our dive into 1999 films do not stop here! Stay tuned! For our weekly update!! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

Reviewing Varsity Blues directly after our review of Cruel Intentions feels like we're putting together Voltron for Not Another Teen Movie, would be a shame if we didn't round it out with the main film from the parody film... "I don't want... your life" Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

I can't tell you how many pop cultural references I now understand thanks to watching Cruel Intentions! I gotta tell ya though, this movie is kinda hard to get through, with the incest and assault and downright crimes committed in this film, however it is a staple of '99 and at times pretty entertaining! Also, the cast really move this a long ways …

Brendan Fraser Revival... or is it renaissance? Whatever you want to call it dude is back!! And Blast from the Past has to be one of his most underrated films, but oh boy is it a gem!

Also this film has a ton of famous stars that I bet you had no idea were in this movie! Enjoy! (Another film about the 2008 financial collapse?? SURE, WHY NOT?!) Music …

Now, Witness starring Harrison Ford is not a musical, but this might be our most musical episode ever! And you can thank Weird Al for that one!

David's first time watching this film and absolutely falling in love with it just as fast as Alain did when he watched it! Mu…

Apparently on the list of red flag favorite films, The Boondock Saints rank pretty high up! Now we are not saying this movie is our favorite movie and there might be crimes against humanity in this film, HOWEVER this movie is wildly entertaining and we hope you find joy listening to us talk about this film! Enjoy! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.…

The Coen Brothers are at it again and by again I mean 24 years ago they wrote and directed this film based off the Odyssey and boy oh boy is it a ride! Such a great addition to their already impressive filmography, The Coen Bros don't miss! What was your first Coen Brothers experience, and do you seek out more of their films to this day? Let us kno…

This movie is considered a cult classic, we didn't know why... the beginning is so strong and Swayze is incredibly likeable and charming (as usual) but then we got to the end and well, let's just say it goes downhill from there, but its still a very fun film! NOW the 2024 remake of Road House... not so much! Fun, less good! Here is our review of BO…

Welcome to I Finally Watched's newest show, "We Just Watched" (Working Title) we are classifying these as bonus episodes that are on films that have just come out and contain SPOILERS!! So be warned!

ANDDD it was not as cool as I thought it would be... March Monster Movie Month presents you our third film of the MonsterVerse... Godzilla: King of the Monsters! Kyle Chandler can't…

Does it make it worse? Absolutely! Enjoy our review of Kong: Skull Island Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinallywatchedpodcast.com…

We genuinely liked it and can't wait for you to hear us talk about it! Enjoy! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinallywatched…

To round out our Denzel films this month, we end with Déjà Vu. And to be honest we were reserved in this decision due to past experience, but realized we haven't actually given this film a fair chance and now we love it! Hope you feel the same about this review! Music By: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com…

Possibly one of Denzel's most famous roles, Training Day was known to us growing up as a very brutal explicit film, but now watching it in our thirties... not as gory as we once thought! Here's one of our favorites! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.comBy ifinallywatched

An underrated and less known Denzel film for this entry, The Siege is about a war on US turf about terrorist attacks from the Middle East 3 years before 9/11. Lots of controversy surrounding this film, but very entertaining and of course Denzel is in-between some very bad people. Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinallywatchedpo…

Loosely based on a 1980's TV show, The Equalizer stars Denzel Washington, just like every other episode we are doing this month! Welcome to Denzel February!! The Equalizer doesn't seem like something Denzel Washington would do, especially once you know that this turned out to be a trilogy! But there are some great moments in this film! Listen and e…

Last movie of the Spike Lee month and what a sendoff! What a banger!! Possibly our favorite Spike movie to date! What did you think of BlacKkKlansman? Did you think it was socially impactful and/or controversial? Let us know and we hope you enjoy listening to this episode! Next up is a month of Denzel! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website…

As we are coming close to wrapping up Spike month, we view an underrated film of Spike's... Miracle at St. Anna (2008) Not without some flaws, this goes down as one of our favorite Spike Lee films and its one we will be recommending time and time again! Controversy, overreacting, and a comparison to Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, you can…

Continuing Spike Lee Month is his post 9/11 film 25th Hour is about a man who's about to be sent to prison for drug dealing and his final hours as a free man. Amazing cast and great dialogue however this film does not feel like a Spike film. Let us know what you thought! Enjoy the review!! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinall…

Another Spike Lee joint! And this time its the documentary thriller, Malcolm X starring Denzel Washington as the seemingly extremist African-American activist! Such a good film that lets me know I really knew nothing about Malcolm X before this... I hope you enjoy our review! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinallywatchedpodcas…

We found a great way to kick off the New Year and that is to make January Spike Lee month of movies!! Starting off with Do the Right Thing (1989) What an unexpected twist of tone from this film and as a couple of guys who have never seen it, it really caught us off guard! We hope you enjoy our review and the whole Spike Lee month! Music By: jesseja…

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate and Happy Holidays! For our yearly tradition of Christmas Movies That Are Not Really Christmas Movies, we present... Rocky (1976) Set between Thanksgiving and New Years Day, we think this is the perfect holiday film and boy don't we feel like a couple of losers having not seeing this film before! So we remedied …

Possibly one of the best movies we've done all year and definitely one of the best post apocalypse sci-fi movies that ever existed! Children of Men is a harsh pseudo reality sci-fi that sadly maybe isn't too far away in our reality in the distant year of 2027. Relax and enjoy our review of Children of Men (2006) Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.c…

A movie that has won so much at The Academy Awards! And we deserved too, sureee maybe some of this movie didn't age as well as it could, but this movie is a monument within this century and I think pretty much everyone has heard of Slumdog Millionaire (2008) Thanks for joining us yet again for another December film that we've already seen in the pa…

You Were Never Really Here (2017) is an amazing underrated crime/thriller starring Joaquin Phoenix and from start to finish it has you on the edge of your seat!

LAWYER EXPLAINS MY COUSIN VINNY! Having never fully seen My Cousin Vinny (1992), David finally sat down and watched it and enjoyed it a lot! Of course he did because it's such a classic! And David, being a lawyer himself, really explained a lot to Alain exactly the legal jargon that went on in one of the most accurate legal portrayals in a film eve…

As far as time travel movies go, Frequency (2000) by far is one of the better ones, but it doesn't follow the same rules as other time travel films, like Back to the Future, but the way they deal with consequences of time travel is quite original and fascinating! Check out what we have to say in this week's episode!!! Music by: jessejacethomas.band…

Is it real, is it made up? Is it Maybelline?! What did you thin when this movie first came out? Do you think it still has the same effect as it did back then? The Blair Witch Project (1999) changed cinema horror as we knew it and... would you consider this a mockumentary?? Also, did anyone see or even like the 2016 remake?? Did David?? Music by: je…

Join us as we traverse the all male prison in search of an actually good film in this weeks episod…

There are a lot of underrated sci-fi movies (we've reviewed a few) and there are a lot of underrated Jake Gyllenhaal movies (We've also done some) but when we tell you the movie LIFE (2017) went under our radar, it was not even a blip and just like that it was gone! We have found it today though and reviewing it was a lot of fun! Let us know if you…

Come for the Arnold Schwarzenegger action movie, stay for the striptease. A more controversial film in the I Finally Watched repertoire, True Lies. Not that its a bad film or any of us thinks it's a bad film, but I will say some of our expectations were let down. Come enjoy our verbal antics as we breakdown this 90s romp of a film!
