Making Me Watch Movies
There’s a new gold standard in film criticism, and it’s three guys with microphones and absolutely no credentials.
Jake is a connoisseur of Asian cinema and films that remind you what it means to be human. Matt prefers movies about deeply disturbed people—the kind that leave you wanting to take a long, scalding shower. And Anthony? He loves "basic" movies, the kind that make you feel like a red-blooded, flag-waving American.
Together, they curate the most eclectic, unpredictable, and undeniably superior film library (which, to this day, has never repeated a director—because we have taste). Each episode, they force-feed you cinematic greatness and then aggressively debate whether the movie was actually worth your time.

Albert Brooks' "DEFENDING YOUR LIFE" (1991)
The Movie Your Making Me Watch today is Albert Brooks' 1991 film "Defending Your Life," a comedic yet thought-provoking exploration of life after death. Join us as we dissect its clever blend of humor and existential contemplation, its portrayal of the afterlife as a bureaucratic purgatory, and its timeless insights into human nature and the fear of mortality. From its witty script to its charming performances by Brooks and Meryl Streep, "Defending Your Life" is a captivating, unique take on what happens when we face judgment in the great beyond.
