The Baba Yaga AND Shazam are back, and we're here for all the excitement on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso have an early review of "John Wick: Chapter 4," which opens March 24. No spoilers here, we promise, but we'll dig into the latest Keanu Reeves action spectacular after folks have had a chance to see it. We also have a spoiler-free review of the DC Universe sequel "Shazam! Fury of the Gods," which we liked better than a lot of critics. In news, we discuss "The Banshees of Inisher...

Episode 344: Movie News, Creed III

March 04, 2023 04:15 - 22 minutes - 30.6 MB

Things are looking up so far in March: We've got a positive review and some upbeat news here at Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso discuss Michael B. Jordan's dazzling directorial debut, "Creed III," in which he impresses on both sides of the camera. (Christy is higher on it than Alonso, but both enjoyed it.) In news, we discuss the release of De La Soul's music on streaming services for the first time, Chris Pine and Harry Styles, a stage production of "Stranger Things," and a petition ...

Episode 343: Movie News, Jesus Revolution, Fire of Love

March 01, 2023 06:07 - 32 minutes - 44.5 MB

"Jesus Revolution" had such a huge opening weekend, we had to review it here on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso were pleasantly surprised by the faith-based drama about the Christian hippie movement in Southern California in the 1970s. We also finally catch up with the spectacular Oscar-nominated documentary "Fire of Love," which was on Christy's top 10 list for 2022. In news, there's so much stupid stuff going on between Woody Harrelson, Mark Wahlberg and Lady Gaga -- but also Screen...

Episode 342: Movie News, Cocaine Bear, We Have a Ghost

February 25, 2023 05:19 - 27 minutes - 37.5 MB

"Cocaine Bear" is finally here, and we're here for every insane moment of it on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review the much-anticipated comic thriller -- which, amazingly, is based on a true story -- and insist that if you're going to see it, you should do so with an audience. We also review "We Have a Ghost" on Netflix, a cheesy haunted house story that wastes a great cast. In news, we discuss the Oscars and SAG Awards, "Succession," Steven Yeun and more. And we've got a couple of...

Episode 341: Movie News, Living

February 22, 2023 02:44 - 20 minutes - 27.6 MB

It's Mardi Gras! But it's always a party around here at Breakfast All Day.

In news, we discuss the Directors Guild and BAFTA awards, box office for "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," Tom Sizemore, Richard Belzer and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episode of "The Last of Us" on HBO, which ...

Episode 340: Movie News, Sharper, Of an Age

February 18, 2023 05:31 - 30 minutes - 41.9 MB

We begin with some exciting news on the latest Breakfast All Day: We hit 5 million views on our YouTube channel! But we also remember the legendary sex symbol Raquel Welch, who died this week at 82. The big movie of the week is "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," which we reviewed on our previous episode. It's getting pretty negative reviews at 47% on Rotten Tomatoes, but we didn't think it was terrible. As for other new movies, we discuss the twisty thriller "Sharper," which is streaming ...

Episode 339: Movie News, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, You People

February 15, 2023 05:25 - 28 minutes - 39.3 MB

February 11, 2023 03:12 - 31 minutes - 42.7 MB

The pickings are slim on Super Bowl Weekend, but we're here to steer you in the right direction on Breakfast All Day if you're looking for a different kind of entertainment. Christy and Alonso review "Magic Mike's Last Dance," which finds Channing Tatum taking the stage one final time at Salma Hayek Pinault's request. We differ on the movie but agree that the dance numbers are spectacular. We also review the extremely bland rom-com "Your Place or Mine," starring Reese Witherspoon and Ashton...

February 08, 2023 05:33 - 39 minutes - 53.6 MB

In news, we discuss "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," box office, AMC's new seating price plan, the Grammys, Armie Hammer and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 4 of "The La...

Episode 336: Movie News, Knock at the Cabin, 80 for Brady

February 04, 2023 03:54 - 29 minutes - 40.9 MB

January is supposed to be a dumping ground for movies, but so far, February looks even worse. Still, we've got you covered here at Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review "Knock at the Cabin," the latest from M. Night Shyamalan, which has an intriguing premise and some inspired camerawork but turns clunky and muddled. We also review "80 for Brady," an infomercial about Tom Brady which is a cringey waste of its formidable stars: Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field. In ne...

Episode 335: Movie News, All Quiet on the Western Front

February 01, 2023 05:52 - 23 minutes - 31.9 MB

The stunning historical epic is streaming on Netflix. We're also back with news, including the campaign behind Andrea Riseborough's Oscar nomination for "To Leslie," the huge success of "The Last of Us" on HBO, more announcements from DC Studios, "Attack the ...

Episode 334: Infinity Pool, Shotgun Wedding

January 28, 2023 05:18 - 21 minutes - 29.3 MB

We review two extremely different movies set in places that only look like paradise on the latest Breakfast All Day. First, Christy and Alonso are split on Brandon Cronenberg's graphic and disturbing "Infinity Pool," starring Mia Goth and Alexander Skarsgard. So many bodily fluids! Then, Nick Bell from the Fish Jelly Film Reviews YouTube channel joins Christy to discuss "Shotgun Wedding," a lifeless Jennifer Lopez rom-com that's streaming on Prime Video. And over at our Patreon, we recap the...

Episode 333: Movie News, Missing, When You Finish Saving the World

January 21, 2023 04:51 - 31 minutes - 42.8 MB

It's a bit of a low-key week here at Breakfast All Day as we await Oscar nominations. Be sure to join us at our YouTube channel at Noon PST on Tuesday, Jan. 24 for a live discussion of the nominees. For now, we have reviews of a couple new releases: the thriller "Missing," a sorta-sequel to the 2018 hit "Searching," and the indie drama "When You Finish Saving the World," which finds Jesse Eisenberg making his writing-directing debut. In news, we discuss David Crosby, Alec Baldwin, Timothee...

Episode 332: Movie News, Skinamarink

January 18, 2023 03:05 - 23 minutes - 32.8 MB

A quick midweek drop-in to delight and frighten you here at Breakfast All Day. Our good friend William Bibbiani joins Christy for a review of the buzzy, low-budget horror movie "Skinamarink," which is extremely slow and definitely not for everyone, but it's effectively creepy. In news, we actually have some good things to tell you about, including Jeremy Renner recovering from his snowplow accident, the premiere of "The Last of Us" on HBO, the LA Film Critics awards dinner, and Madonna anno...

Episode 331: Movie News, Plane, No Bears

January 14, 2023 04:53 - 32 minutes - 44.6 MB

In news, we discuss the tragic passing of Lisa Marie Presley, as well as Golden Globe winners and Screen Actors Guild, Directors Guild and Producers Guild nominees. And over at our Patreon, we recap the ...

January 11, 2023 03:42 - 32 minutes - 44 MB

We're catching up with a couple of movies here at Breakfast All Day during these low-key, early weeks of January. Our good friend William Bibbiani joins in for a review of the animated sequel "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish," and we scour the snowy woods for clues in "The Pale Blue Eye" on Netflix. In news, we discuss a couple of big trailers: "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" and "Beau Is Afraid," plus "M3GAN" box office, Golden Globes and the death of former child star Adam Rich. And over ...

And we've got a few items of movie news to share, including Jeremy Renner's snowplow accident, box o...

Episode 328: Ask Us Anything!, I Wanna Dance With Somebody

December 23, 2022 19:46 - 33 minutes - 45.4 MB

It’s our last episode of 2022! So we’re wrapping things up with a round of Ask Us Anything. Among the questions Alonso and Christy answer: what’s the hardest part of being a film critic, what would we put on a Sight & Sound ballot, and what’s a great so-bad-it’s-good Christmas movie? Also, the brilliant Katie Walsh returns to help Christy review “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.” We have very different opinions on the Whitney Houston biopic. We hope you enjoy this episode and everything we’ve sh...

December 21, 2022 01:48 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MB

We also review one of our absolute favorites of the year, the stunningly beautiful “EO,” which is the Polish donkey movie you never knew you needed in your life. (Click here to see when it’s playing near you.) In news, we discuss the “Barbie” trailer, how “Avatar: The Wa...

December 14, 2022 05:42 - 33 minutes - 46.2 MB

Come on in, the water’s fine here at Breakfast All Day. We have an early review of the much-anticipated sequel “Avatar: The Way of Water,” which is finally coming out this weekend, 13 years after James Cameron’s original. We were dazzled by its imagery and not much else. We also review “Empire of Light,” Sam Mendes’ love letter to cinema in a year that’s already full of them (and we still have “Babylon” coming next week). In news, we discuss LA Film Critics awards, Golden Globe nominations,...

Episode 324: Movie News, The Whale, Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio

December 10, 2022 05:09 - 30 minutes - 42.4 MB

It’s a total coincidence but we happen to be reviewing “The Whale” and “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio” on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. We loved one of these movies and didn’t love the other. Tune in to find out which is which! In news we discuss Alonso’s new book, Taylor Swift’s feature directing debut, the American Film Institute’s list of the year’s top 10 movies, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” bullies, and Celine Dion.

December 03, 2022 03:06 - 27 minutes - 37.1 MB

It’s December, so we’re officially in Christmas movie season on Breakfast All Day. But we have very different opinions of “Violent Night,” an action flick starring David Harbour as a butt-kicking Santa Claus. We are in agreement, though, about “The Inspection,” a sensitive and compelling indie drama about a queer, black man who joins the Marines. In news, we discuss the New York Film Critics Circle’s year-end picks, the once-a decade Sight & Sound poll where “Jeanne Dielman” was named the be...

We also catch up with "Disenchanted," the disappointing sequel to the 2007 fairy tale musical "Enchanted," which is streaming on Disney+.

November 16, 2022 00:59 - 20 minutes - 27.9 MB

Just a quick, midweek nibble from us at Breakfast All Day as we review “The Menu,” the dark comedy starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Fiennes and Nicholas Hoult.

We also have some news headlines, including the huge box office opening for “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” Dave Chappelle’s “Saturday Night Live” monologue, Daniel Craig’s infectious Belvedere vodka ad and more.

Plus movie news of course, which includes Kevin Conroy, Andy Taylor, Chris Evans, Jimmy Kimmel and Aaron Carter. Over at our Patreon, we recap a couple of incredible episodes of television: the season finale of "The Handmaid's Tale" and this week's prison break on "Andor." And don't forget to join us Saturday afternoon for out live spoiler disc...

October 29, 2022 04:48 - 28 minutes - 38.6 MB

It’s sort of a low-key week around here as we wait for Black Panther to return on Breakfast All Day.

We also catch up with the toxic romance “Stars at Noon,” the latest from master French filmmaker Claire Denis, which is now streaming on Hulu.

Episode 310: Movie News, The Banshees of Inisherin, Decision to Leave

October 19, 2022 04:49 - 26 minutes - 35.9 MB

It's Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day as we review two movies we absolutely loved. "The Banshees of Inisherin" reunites writer-director Martin McDonagh with his "In Bruges" stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson in a hilarious, horrifying and heartbreaking story of male friendship. The latest from Korean master Park Chan-wook, "Decision to Leave," is a gorgeous and devastating film noir that will linger with you long afterward.

We also review the “Hellraiser” reboot with our friend William Bibbiani, who’s an expert on the horror series. (Apparently this is the 11th one, and Alonso and Christy have seen none of them.) In news, we discuss the dismal box office opening for “Amsterdam,” Botox courtesy of “Triangle of Sadness,” a...

We're frolicking in suburbia with Harry and Miss Flo this week on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso review the much-anticipated "Don't Worry Darling," and feel baffled by this beautiful but ultimately ridiculous sci-fi thriller. (We'll do a spoiler discussion down the road. We have lots of questions.) But we were both pleasantly surprised by "Confess, Fletch," with Jon Hamm stepping into one of Chevy Chase's iconic roles. It's in theaters and streaming on Paramount+.

So many new fall movies came out this past weekend, we had to scatter them across several days to get to them all. On our latest episode of Breakfast All Day, we review the exceptionally kick-ass "The Woman King," the needless remake of the Austrian thriller "Goodnight Mommy" (which Alonso liked better than Christy did), and we go deep into spoilers on "Barbarian" now that the horror movie has been our for a little while.

We’re still waiting for someone to come along and sprinkle fairy dust on us. ‘Til then, we’re just gonna keep acting like real film critics here at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the truly terrible live-action remake of “Pinocchio,” which went straight to streaming on Disney+. We also have lots of news for you, including the Toronto International Film Festival starting (with Alonso’s breakdown of how meaningless standing ovations are), Disney’s D23 Expo, trailers for “Glass Oni...
