In Episode 35 of The Watchlist, Luke & Eli dive into You Can See Everything, a brilliant, edge-of-your-seat film that keeps you guessing until the very end.

In Episode 33 of The Watchlist, Luke & Eli review Digger (2026), the new film from Alejandro González Iñárritu starring Tom Cruise and Riz Ahmed. We discuss why the film’s satire felt too obvious, its messy structure, and why a movie this ambitious ultimately isn’t as provocative—or as ballsy—as it thinks it is. We also talk about Tom Cruise’s committed performance and why Riz Ahmed might actually be the standout.
