Breakfast All Day movie reviews

There was so much to talk about at this year's Oscars that we wanted to come back the next day for more. This is the audio of the  Monday morning reactions livestream we did on our Breakfast All Day YouTube channel. How accurately did you pick the winners? Did you have "One Battle After Another" or "Sinners" for best picture? And what did you think of the speeches, the gowns, and Conan's wacky ske...

We're taking it easy as we head into this busy Oscar weekend at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed in our latest episode: PROJECT HAIL MARY. This is a super-early review of the Ryan Gosling-in-space comedy, which doesn't even come out until March 20. But there's so much expectation for it, we wanted to share our throughts as soon as we could. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller direct from a...

It's one of our favorite days during awards season: when our great friend Glenn Whipp of the Los Angeles Times joins us to help out with Oscar picks. Glenn covers awards races year-round, and always has lots of insider insight. The three of us don't agree on everything -- we're split on best picture, for example -- but other categories like best actress seem pretty clear at this point. What do you...

It's an absolutely packed episode a week away from the Oscars. We're playing some catch-up with nominees and we've got one monster of a new release. Here's what we have for you: THE BRIDE! That exclamation point says it all. Writer-director Maggie Gyllenhaal's wild and bold update of "The Bride of Frankenstein" mixes tones and genres in a way that's dividing critics (including us). Jessie Buckley...

The end of February is a cinematic wasteland -- you're better off catching up with Oscar nominees -- but if you'd like to see a new movie, we've got you covered here at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed on our latest episode. SCREAM 7. It's the seventh "Scream" movie, so you can imagine how totally bereft of fresh ideas they are by now. But hey, Neve Campbell is back. This is a non-spoile...

We're taking care of business here at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed for you on our latest episode: EPiC: ELVIS PRESLEY IN CONCERT. Baz Luhrmann digs through the archives to find 59 hours of never-before-seen footage from Elvis Presley's Las Vegas run. The results are thrilling. Whether or not you're a massive Elvis fan, you'll come away with an appreciation for his singular showmanshi...

Nice to see you on this mid-week pop-in here at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got for you on our latest episode: HOW TO MAKE A KILLING. Glen Powell leads an all-star cast in this dark comedy from writer-director John Patton Ford ("Emily the Criminal"). He plays the son of a disowned heiress who schemes to kill all the family members ahead of him in line for a billion-dollar fortune. Margare...

Life is like a jam-packed, extremely random box of chocolates on this week's episode of Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed: WUTHERING HEIGHTS. Emerald Fennell's 14-year-old-girl fanfic version of the classic Emily Brontë novel is high on style but low on substance. Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie are a gorgeous Heathcliff and Cathy, but there's not much tension between them. See it for the...

It's Arthouse Tuesday on a Friday here at Breakfast All Day, with reviews of a couple awards contenders: PILLION. Harry Melling stars as a meek Brit who finds himself serving as the sub to Alexander Skarsgård's biker dom. Director Harry Lighton is up for a DGA award for best first feature. This is pretty graphic but it's also surprisingly sweet. In theaters. SIRĀT. Oliver Laxe's haunting and harro...

We're coming to you on a Saturday for a change because we took part in Friday's national shutdown to protest ICE. We realize it's a small contribution, but we hope every little bit of action or awareness helps. Here's a quick episode of Breakfast All Day to keep you company over the weekend: REMEMBERING CATHERINE O'HARA: We're heartbroken over the loss of this comedy legend. O'Hara died Friday at...

Truly, one of the more random collections of films we've reviewed lately on Breakfast All Day. On this mid-week drop, we've got: SEND HELP. Sam Raimi is back, directing the kind of truly gonzo horror-comedy he made his name on decades ago. Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien star as co-workers trapped together on a deserted island after a plane crash. We enjoyed this so much, we wanted to do an early...

It's Oscar nominations week, so we're playing catch up as well as slogging through some extremely January movies. We recorded these reviews before Thursday's Academy announcement, so we have a couple of updates for you: Amanda Seyfried didn't get a nomination for "The Testament of Ann Lee," but "Come See Me in the Good Light" did make it into the documentary feature category. Here's what we discus...

It's our favorite morning of the year! Or one of them, at least. We had a great turnout for our annual Oscar nominations livestream on our YouTube channel. In case you missed it, here it is in podcast form. Ryan Coogler's Southern Gothic vampire musical "Sinners" made history with 16 nominations, including best picture, director and the new category of casting. Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle A...

We're taking a trip to The Bone Temple this week on Breakfast All Day, but don't worry. Ralph Fiennes has great taste in music, it'll be super fun. Here's what we've reviewed lately: 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. This picks up right where Danny Boyle's "28 Years Later" left off in 2025, but Nia DaCosta's film is very different: thrilling and terrifying in its own way, but also more somber, but...

So much happened at this year's Golden Globes that we decided kinda last minute to do a reaction livestream the next day. Thanks so much to the folks who joined us and shared their thoughts on everything from the winners to Nikki Glaser's monologue to the inane running commentary as celebrities walked to the stage. We also wondered about the conspicuous absence of any kind of political commentary,...

We have an extra-long episode to kick off 2026 here at Breakfast All Day. Earlier this week, we posted our lists of the best and worst movies of 2025. Now, we're looking at new movies and chatting about movie news and spoilers: PRIMATE. A brilliant, highly-trained chimpanzee gets bitten by a rabid mongoose and goes on a homicidal rampage. It's the first week of January, but this gory horror movie...

Sure, the calendar says 2026, but we couldn't begin the year in earnest without looking back at the best and worst movies of 2025. This is an event, so it gets its own separate episode. What are your favorite movies from last year? What was the biggest waste of your time? Let us know if your picks align with ours, and here's to all good things in the new year!

It's our final Breakfast All Day episode of 2025! And we have some great stuff and some not-so great stuff for you as we wrap up the year. All of these movies will be in theaters on Christmas Day: MARTY SUPREME. Timothée Chalamet gives an electrifying performance as a 1950s table tennis phenom. We both loved the film from writer and co-director Josh Safdie, which has the kind of kinetic, propulsiv...

We've got a little stocking stuffer for you here at Breakfast All Day. Lots of big movies coming out over the next couple of weeks, including "Avatar: Fire and Ash," which we reviewed on Tuesday. As for the weekend's other new releases, here's what we have for you: THE HOUSEMAID. Deliciously twisty trash starring Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, who definitely knew the assignment. Because this...

There's so much happening right now that we had to do a midweek visit with you here at Breakfast All Day. First, we reviewed the big movie of the week, "Avatar: Fire and Ash." James Cameron just keeps making "Avatar" movies, so we'll keep reviewing them. At least this time, Oona Chaplin adds an element of crazy-sexy danger as the leader of a tribe that's challenging the Na'vi. In theaters this Fri...

We're holding it together with ribbons and Scotch tape this week on Breakfast All Day. Alonso is off promoting the new edition of his book, "Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas," so here's what we've got for you: ELLA McCAY: Yes, it is as baffling as you've heard. Thankfully, Tim Grierson from Screen International returns to help try and make sense of it. The latest film from Oscar-winner James...

December is here and so are we at Breakfast All Day. Kind of a random week of smaller stuff to start the last month of 2025, but the big movies are coming very soon. For now, we have: MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG. This is the filmed version of the Tony-winning musical revival. It was a notorious flop for Stephen Sondheim and is now considered a classic. Jonathan Groff, Daniel Radcliffe and Lindsay Mendez...

If you cook the bird, we'll bring the sides for you on this Thanksgiving Week episode of Breakfast All Day. Here are the big movies coming out that we reviewed: WAKE UP DEAD MAN. The third movie in Rian Johnson's "Knives Out" series has more on its mind than its predecessors. But the latest murder mystery is just as fun in its twists and turns, and it features yet another delightful performance fr...

An incredibly random mix of movies this week, but hopefully we have a little something for everyone here at Breakfast All Day. Think of it as a Thanksgiving buffet for your ears: WICKED: FOR GOOD: We do not agree at all on the second half of "Wicked," based on the Broadway musical. But we wanted to review it as early as we could, so here we are, putting one foot in front of the other on the Yellow...

We've got ALL the running men this week, but we'd never run away from you at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed in our latest episode: THE RUNNING MAN (2025): Glen Powell runs for his life (and millions of dollars) in a dystopian future, based on the Stephen King novel. In theaters. THE RUNNING MAN (1987): Arnold Schwarzenegger runs for his life (and millions of dollars) in a dystopian fut...
