Hate Watching with Dan and Tony
by Dan Goodsell and Tony Czech
Unprofessional, unsolicited and unwanted opinions from Dan and Tony as they watch movies and tell you what's wrong with them.
Episodes
-
Hate Watching Elvira's Haunted Hills: All Hills No Frills
Send us Fan Mail A castle in the Carpathians. Edgar Allan Poe name-drops. Secret doors, earthquakes, torture devices, and a title that promises haunted hills. So why does Elvira’s Haunted Hills feel like it forgot to include a story, or even a consistent joke? We put on our bad movie review hats...
-
Hate Watching Resident Evil Welcome to Raccoon City: AKA City of Raccoons
Send us Fan Mail One tiny detail can reveal everything that is broken about a movie, and for us it is this: the film cannot decide whether it lives in “Raccoon City” or the “City of Raccoon.” From there, we hit the gas and speed run Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021), the franchise...
-
M3GAN 2.0: The Genre Swap Disaster
Send us Fan Mail M3GAN 2.0 should be an easy win: take a killer doll with attitude, push the horror, sharpen the satire, and give us a few scenes that people quote for years. Instead, we walk straight into a sequel that feels like it’s chasing a totally different movie, swapping dread for generic...
-
Hate Watching Mayday: Flight Delayed
Send us Fan Mail A Top Gun homage is a dangerous game, and Mayday plays it on hard mode. We walk through Apple TV’s action comedy and try to figure out why it feels so watchable in the moment, yet so hard to love after the credits roll. The big issue is commitment: the movie wants 1987 Cold War...
-
Hate Watching Disclosure Day: Disclosure Day Eve
Send us Fan Mail A movie titled Disclosure Day practically dares you to imagine the one thing every alien story promises but rarely commits to: the moment the truth drops and the world has to live with it. We sit down as Dan and Tony to unpack why the trailer sells a sharp, high-stakes alien...
-
Hate Watching Supergirl: Mediocrity Deserves Applause
Send us Fan Mail Supergirl left us with a weird feeling we couldn’t shake: not anger in the fun way, not confusion in the mystery way, just a movie that keeps reaching for big themes without doing the work to make them land. So we go scene by scene and ask the questions the film seems allergic to...
-
Hate Watching Under The Silver Lake: Rage Bait
Send us Fan Mail Tony says it first and he never lets it go: Under the Silver Lake is the most frustrating movie he has ever been forced to sit through. That reaction kicks off a surprisingly deep argument between us about what a movie owes its audience, and what “subversive” even means when the...
-
From The Vaults: Hate Watching It Follows
Send us Fan Mail To prepare for our next episode of Under the Silver Lake, we go back and revisit our discussion on It Follows. Still trash by the way.... A monster that follows you forever is a killer premise. The problem is when the movie can’t decide what its own rules are. We spend this whole...
-
Hate Watching Backrooms: Art? Sure. Horror? ...WHERE?!
Send us Fan Mail A movie about endless yellow hallways should be pure nightmare fuel, so why did Backrooms leave us split between genuine admiration and total disbelief? We go scene by scene on what works, what collapses, and why the film’s biggest swing the “evil pirate” third act lands as…
more -
Hate Watching The Astronaut: The Twist Is Worth The Squeeze!
Send us Fan Mail The Astronaut (2025) spends a long time whispering “something is wrong” and then, in the final minutes, it starts yelling. We go full spoiler mode on this Kate Mara sci fi thriller and try to figure out how a movie can feel like nothing is happening while also setting up one of…
more -
Hate Watching Obsession: Half Measures in Modern Horror
Send us Fan Mail 94% on Rotten Tomatoes should feel like a slam dunk. Instead, Obsession (2026) sent us into full detective mode: how does a movie with gorgeous shots, impressive sound design, and strong acting end up feeling so slow, so consequence-free, and so weirdly safe? We walk through the...
-
Hate Watching In Time: I'd Pay Several Years to Get This Time Back
Send us Fan Mail A world where you can literally spend your life on a cup of coffee should be terrifying. Instead, In Time (2011) somehow turns one of the best sci-fi dystopia premises of the last two decades into a story that keeps dodging its own consequences, and we could not let that slide.…
more -
Hate Watching Little Brother: Hoobastank Can't Save You Now!
Send us Fan Mail A comedy can survive bad taste, broad jokes, even a ridiculous set piece, but it can’t survive refusing to commit. We kick things off with a very real spiral about money and sustainability, then take a hard left into a bigger fear that’s creeping into entertainment: AI likeness,...
-
Hate Watching Anon - Stick Gun Up! This is a Robbery...Of Your Time
Send us Fan Mail A future where your eyes record everything should make crime harder, truth clearer, and privacy basically extinct. That is the promise of Anon, the 2018 Netflix sci-fi noir starring Clive Owen. We wanted to love the premise. Instead, we end up asking the most brutal question a…
more -
Hate Watching War of the Worlds 2005: Spielberg Fumbles at the 1 Yard Line
Send us Fan Mail The wild thing about War Of The Worlds (2005) is how quickly it earns our trust and how loudly it tests it later. We sit down on Heat Watching and walk through Spielberg’s alien invasion thriller beat by beat, starting with that terrifying, razor-tight opening stretch where...
-
Hate Watching K-Pax: Good, Bad or just Non Sense?
Send us Fan Mail Someone shows up in Grand Central, claims he’s from a planet called K-Pax, and calmly starts wrecking everyone’s certainty. That setup sounds like classic sci-fi, but the more we talk about the 2001 film K-Pax, the more it turns into a debate about story logic, emotional truth…
more -
Hate Watching Corky Romano: No Comedic Evidence Anywhere
Send us Fan Mail A movie can be harmless and still drive you nuts, especially when you can see the better version hiding inside it. We go back to 2001 and rewatch Corky Romano, the Chris Kattan comedy that lives in a lot of people’s nostalgia, then we ask the uncomfortable question: why does it...
-
Hate Watching The Naked Gun (2025): Short and Sweet
Send us Fan Mail A spoof can be chaotic and still feel precise, but only if the movie commits. We just watched The Naked Gun reboot and ended up in a full-on argument about what modern parody movies need to work: clean setups, real escalation, and actors who play the moment like it’s life or…
more -
Hate Watching Steel: Super Shaq or Super Lame?
Send us Fan Mail Shaq in a DC Comics superhero suit should be an automatic good time, but Steel (1997) somehow lands in the uncanny valley between Saturday afternoon fun and “please take this seriously.” We rewatch it scene by scene and call out the exact moments where the movie could have leaned...
-
Hate Watching Passengers: I'd Rather Die Alone
Send us Fan Mail A guy wakes up alone on a colony ship, stares at a sleeping stranger for a year, and then makes a choice the movie wants to frame as romance. That’s the moment Passengers (2016) loses us, and we can’t stop talking about why. We walk through the film’s best ingredients: a slick...
-
Hate Watching Tron Ares: A Boring Music Video
Send us Fan Mail Tron: Ares made us do something we almost never do: we hit play, heard the soundtrack kick in, and immediately wished we could keep the speakers on while turning the screen off. Dan and Tony break down the new Tron sequel with a very specific question in mind: how can a movie…
more -
Hate Watching Marty Supreme: We Could Play Ping Pong
Send us Fan Mail Marty Supreme looks like a prestige movie, sounds like three different movies at once, and plays like a sports film that refuses to give you the one thing you came for: a reason to care who wins. We walk through the plot beat by beat, then stop and argue about why it feels so...
-
Hate Watching Balls Up: A Sort of Sports Sort of Comedy Movie
Send us Fan Mail A movie about condoms, cocaine, and the World Cup should be a layup for a wild studio comedy. Balls Up somehow turns that setup into a string of half-formed bits, missing reactions, and scenes that refuse to escalate. So we did what we do best: hate watched it closely and pulled…
more -
Hate Watching Dark Crimes: True Crime or Exploitation?
Send us Fan Mail Dark Crimes wants to be a grim, prestige-leaning true crime thriller, but the further we follow it, the less it holds together. We sit down with our notes and try to track basic things a crime mystery should make clear: who wants what, what the evidence means, and why Jim…
more -
Hate Watching Avatar 3: Fire and Rehash
Send us Fan Mail A three-hour sci-fi epic shouldn’t feel like you accidentally hit replay, yet that’s the vibe we can’t shake while breaking down Avatar 3: Fire and Ash. We’re Dan and Tony, and we watch the movies everyone’s already seen, then pull on the threads that the hype cycle ignores:...
-
Hate Watching Greenland 2: The Slow Death of Cinema
Send us Fan Mail A sequel can be bigger, darker, and meaner, but it still has to make sense. We take on Greenland: Migration as a natural disaster movie and post-apocalyptic survival thriller that keeps sprinting past its own logic: rations that magically last years, bunker life that feels…
more -
Hate Watching Mercy: Cannot Compute
Send us Fan Mail An AI judge. A 90-minute timer. One chair that can end you. Mercy sells itself like a sleek future-court thriller, but the more we follow its rules, the less the world holds together and that’s where our review gets viciously fun. We walk through the movie’s central idea: Judge...
-
Hate Watching The Tomorrow War: Time Travel Faux Pas
Send us Fan Mail A time portal opens on a soccer field, a future soldier somehow addresses the whole stadium without a mic, and the world immediately agrees to a draft that sends regular people into an alien war with barely any training. That’s the kind of logic we can’t let go, so we put The...
-
Hate Watching Anaconda: A Fangless Reboot
Send us Fan Mail A reboot can survive a bad budget, cheap CGI, and even a silly premise. What it cannot survive is refusing to be the movie it advertises. We dig into the Anaconda remake and the strange choice to set up jump scares, a Brazil jungle prologue, and a “we’re living the movie we’re...
-
Hate Watching In The Blink Of An Eye: Blink too hard and you'll...fall asleep
Send us Fan Mail Three timelines. One supposed “grand message.” And somehow we’re left asking the simplest question a movie can provoke: what was the point? We take on In The Blink Of An Eye, the Hulu sci-fi drama that jumps from a prehistoric survival story to a modern relationship to a…
more -
Hate Watching Play Dirty: A Train Wreck So Big Even the CGI Ran Away
Send us Fan Mail A great heist hums like clockwork: clear motives, sharp reversals, and rules the audience can trust. Play Dirty aims for that swagger but keeps slipping on its own tone, ricocheting between hard-boiled grit and broad comedy. We dive into why that mismatch turns big swings—a...
-
Hate Watching Transformers The Last Knight: Less Than Meets the Eye
Send us Fan Mail Knights, Nazis, submarines, and a three-headed robo-dragon walk into a Transformers sequel… and somehow the wildest ingredients still feel weightless. We dig into Transformers: The Last Knight to figure out why the VFX slap while the story slips, how the Arthurian hook gets…
more -
Hate Watching Strange Wilderness: Turkeys and Sharks and Bears, Oh My!
Send us Fan Mail What happens when a movie you once despised suddenly makes you laugh out loud? We dive back into Strange Wilderness and pull apart why some of its dumbest jokes still work—and why the “movie” around them often doesn’t. We set the table with the film’s sketch roots, the...
-
Hate Watching Gladiator II: A Monolithic Letdown
Send us Fan Mail What happens when a massive sequel forgets the one thing epics can’t live without—emotion? We take a scalpel to Gladiator 2 and dig into why the arena feels quiet even when the crowd is screaming. From a “last free city” setup that strains belief to a retconned bloodline that...
-
Hate Watching Five Nights At Freddy’s 2: The Ghosts in the Machines
Send us Fan Mail A killer marionette, a sleepy music box, and a town that throws a FazFest for reasons no one can explain—welcome to our breakdown of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, where the lore expands and the logic contracts. We dig into the 1982 prologue that binds Charlotte’s ghost to the…
more -
Hate Watching Presence: Ghosts, Burritos, And Bad Movies
Send us Fan Mail A ghost’s-eye horror should feel like slipping between walls, time, and truth. Instead, Presence hands us a floating wide-angle lens that wanders rooms, hides in closets, and forgets why it’s haunting anyone. We dive straight into why the concept is intriguing and how the…
more -
Hate Watching The Animal: Beast Mode Or Bust
Send us Fan Mail A goat gag, a blow dart, and one perfect Norm Macdonald riff walk into a movie. We dive into The Animal with our gloves off and our sense of humor intact, asking a simple question that unlocks the whole watch: can lowbrow comedy land when the lead can’t elevate the bit? One of us...
-
Hate Watching Playdate: Alan Ritchson Saves The Day
Send us Fan Mail We had questions the moment Playdate 2025 opened on a joyless car chase and a baffling lacrosse scene—and then Isla Fisher strolled in with the “Mama Mafia” and Alan Ritchson arrived like a golden retriever with black-ops training. That’s the whiplash of this Prime Video...
-
Hate Watching Honey Don’t: Pretty Sure Honey Didn't
Send us Fan Mail A Vespa hums into Bakersfield, a church robe hides bondage gear, and a smooth-talking reverend runs a drug ring between sermons about macaroni. We dive into Honey Don’t with a simple litmus test for any detective story: does the protagonist actually want something concrete? When…
more -
Hate Watching Death of a Unicorn: Mo Money And Messy CGI
Send us Fan Mail A healing unicorn, a billionaire’s lodge, and a night that should have dripped with dread instead slides into confusion. We dive into Death of a Unicorn with fresh eyes and plenty of receipts—where the premise shines, why the scares fizzle, and how the story trades suspense for...
-
Hate Watching A Very Jonas Christmas Movie: Holiday Hype or Hollow Cheer
Send us Fan Mail A leather jacket Santa, a melted plane, and a train to the wrong city—on paper it sounds wild. We hit play on the Jonas Brothers holiday special expecting cozy carols and earned nostalgia, and got a glossy tour of Europe where money and magic wipe away every consequence. The…
more -
Hate Watching the Truman Show: Truman, Tinfoil, And TV Lies
Send us Fan Mail What happens when a brilliant concept crumbles under its own weight? We dive headfirst into The Truman Show and pull at every loose thread: a dome you can see from space, a moon that doubles as a control booth, rain on a dimmer, and a hero who behaves like a normal adult instead…
more -
Hate Watching The Pickup: A Monkey, A Ring, and Zero Stakes
Send us Fan Mail The trailer had us hopeful; the movie had us baffled. We dive into The Pickup and pull apart why a slick heist premise, a stacked cast, and a veteran director still yield a comedy-thriller with no real stakes and a whole lot of shrugs. From the opening bank “meet-cute” with a…
more -
Hate Watching Timeline: Dumb, Fun, Semi-History
Send us Fan Mail A time machine that behaves like a fax, a grenade that hops centuries, and an ear that turns into destiny—this conversation goes deep on why Timeline is both ridiculous and ridiculously enjoyable. We break down the movie’s soft science with a smile, from wormholes that sometimes...
-
Hate Watching Land of the Lost: Big Brain T-Rex, Tiny Plot
Send us Fan Mail Dinosaurs, portals, and a chorus line of pterodactyls should be a slam dunk. We dove into Land of the Lost to figure out why a movie with so many toys keeps losing the game—and how a few smart changes could have turned chaos into comedy that sticks. We start with the core…
more -
Hate Watching Little Evil: Little Evil, Big Opinions
Send us Fan Mail What happens when a sharp horror-comedy premise gets tripped up by soggy jokes and TV-flat reactions? We dig into Little Evil with a filmmaker’s eye and a comic’s ear, mapping the moments that could have soared if the setups, POV, and character logic actually aligned. From the...
-
Hate Watching Werewolves: Don't Forget Your Moonscreen
Send us Fan Mail A supermoon turns the world wild, Frank Grillo grabs a shotgun, and we grab our notes. We break down Werewolves with the kind of scene-by-scene nitpicks and love for schlock that only come from watching too many creature features at 2 a.m. The premise is killer—moonlight triggers...
-
Hate Watching Superman: An Unpopular Opinion
Send us Fan Mail A Superman movie where the dog makes more choices than the Man of Steel? We dove into James Gunn’s take and found a shiny spectacle that keeps dodging the heart of the character. From a midstream opening to a city-leviathan set piece shot through a fish-eye lens, the film races...
-
Hate Watching Freddy Vs. Jason: Dumb Fun Done Right
Send us Fan Mail Two horror titans enter, consistency takes a vacation, and we can’t stop talking about why it still works. We rewind to 2003 and pull apart Freddy vs. Jason from its crisp, newcomer‑friendly recap to the outsized, fire‑lit brawls that the whole campaign was built around. We’re...
-
Hate Watching Broken Arrow: John Woo's Woes
Send us Fan Mail Nuclear theft, a smirking supervillain, and a train sequence that refuses to quit—our rewatch of John Woo’s Broken Arrow is a love letter to the wildest corners of ’90s action. We kick off Todd’s birthday stream with a question we can’t stop asking: why do some “bad” movies age...
