Breakfast All Day movie reviews

It's a mixed bag on this mid-August episode of Breakfast All Day . We review the horror movie "The Last Voyage of the Demeter," which really should have been called "Vampire Boat." It's in theaters now and it's not good. We also discuss the gay rom-com "Red, White & Royal Blue," based on the best-selling novel. It's streaming on Prime Video and it's very good. In news , we talk about "Wonder Woman...

Have you seen "They Cloned Tyrone" ? It's this trippy sci-fi/comedy that upends blaxploitation tropes and keeps you guessing the whole way through. We have a spoiler-free catch-up review of the Netflix film, starring a terrific John Boyega, Teyonah Parris and Jamie Foxx, on the latest Breakfast All Day . In news , we remember the legendary director William Friedkin ("The Exorcist," "The French Con...

Surely, if anyone can save us from rampaging megalodons, it's Jason Statham on a Jet-Ski. At least that's the point of "Meg 2: The Trench," which takes way too long to get going. We have a review of this surprisingly dull late-summer sequel on Breakfast All Day . We also review the indie rom-com "Shortcomings," Randall Park's feature directorial debut, starring Justin H. Min, Sherry Cola and Ally...

So great to be back with you again after traveling for much of July! But we wish we had happier news to share here at Breakfast All Day . Among the topics Alonso and Christy discuss in movie news are the deaths of Paul Reubens, Sinead O'Connor and Angus Cloud . Also: the latest in Barbenheimer box office, the writers' and actors' strikes , and the "Loki" season 2 trailer. Plus we have a review of...

Travel back in time with us to 1980 for the latest round of our favorite game: Was It Great or Were You 8? This time, it was Christy's turn to pick a favorite movie from childhood to determine whether it truly was great or she just remembers it fondly through nostalgia. She chose "9 to 5," the workplace comedy starring Lily Tomlin, Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda. What do you think of the film? Let us...

It's been a huge week at the movies between "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer," and since there's so much to discuss in both films, we decided to do one big, sparkly, explosive spoiler chat combining the two.

Did you do the  Barbenheimer double feature -- and if so, what ord...

It's summer, so we're sort of in and out and all over the place, but we'll always find time to check in with you here at Breakfast All Day . We have a review of the indie comedy "Theater Camp," which affectionately skewers these over-eager drama nerds. It's in theaters now. And we wanted to share a segment with you that we regularly do for our Patreon subscribers. It's called Off the Menu : Every...

We're here with a quick, midweek pop-in on Breakfast All Day . So many people asked us to catch up with "Extraction 2," the Chris Hemsworth action sequel on Netflix, that we couldn't possibly say no (even though we'd totally forgotten that we reviewed the original "Extraction" in April 2020). And in news , we have a major correction regarding Jennifer Lawrence 's nude beach fight scene in "No Hard...

Big week on the podcast! We have an early, spoiler-free review of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," which is in theaters June 30. Join us for one last adventure with Harrison Ford. We also review "No Hard Feelings," Jennifer Lawrence's R-rated comedy which is a throwback to the raunchy sex romps of the early '80s. In news , we talk about the use of AI in the "Secret Invasion" titles, the gu...

We're dropping in with a quick, mid-week catch-up on a couple of movies we think you'll enjoy.

Plus, we discuss the documentary "Lynch/Oz," a thrilling and thought-provoking video essay that explores how "The Wizard of Oz" has influenced David L...

Grab yourself some popcorn and a drink and join us for our review of "Elemental." We both really liked the latest from Pixar on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day -- it's gorgeous and very entertaining -- even if it doesn't reach the heights of the animation company's greatest films. In movie news , we discuss the loss of a few greats in their industries: actress Glenda Jackson , author Corma...

We've packed up the station wagon and we're ready for a road trip to "Asteroid City." Alonso and Christy have very different thoughts on the latest from writer-director Wes Anderson , but we agree that the cast is terrific and the cinematography and production design are sublime. It opens in New York and Los Angeles June 16 before going wider the following week. And in our news segment, we remembe...

We, too, are more than meets the eye here at Breakfast All Day . On our latest episode, we have a review of "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts," which we were surprised to find we kinda liked. It isn't quite as good as 2018's "Bumblebee," but it's better than the Michael Bay movies. We also sink our teeth into "Flamin' Hot," Eva Longoria's Flamin' Hot Cheetos origin story, which is streaming on bot...

It's an incredible week at the movies, thanks to two extremely different new releases.

We also have a rave for "Past Lives," a delicate and melancholy romance from first-time writer-director Celine Song. They'll probably both...

We're just staring out at the water, thinking about how sad we are that "Succession" is over after four seasons. Christy recaps the incredible series finale with insights from the brilliant Dr. Ramani , a narcissism expert who's been analyzing the HBO show all season long on her YouTube channel. Spoilers, obviously, but this was a great conversation so we hope you enjoy it. Also on the latest Brea...

We pay tribute to the legendary Tina Turner this week on Breakfast All Day , not just as the electrifying Queen of Rock and Roll but also as a striking screen presence. Also in news : the "Succession" series finale, the latest on the Writers Guild strike , and "The Brady Bunch" house, which is for sale for just $5.5 million. Plus, we review "You Hurt My Feelings," the excellent new comedy from wri...
