2025/02/22

Wind us up and we talk about movies here at Breakfast All Day. Just a quick visit this Friday, as we're being pulled in various directions during awards season. But we had to review "The Monkey," the insane horror-comedy from writer-director Osgood Perkins. It's about a toy monkey that likes to kill people. You'll laugh, you'll scream. See it in a packed theater if possible. In theaters. Then we have an extra long Movie News LIVE! segment. There's so much to talk about between the state of awards

Arthouse Tuesday is also Oscar Tuesday this week, as we catch up with a couple of Academy Award nominees. First, we review "Flow," which is up for best animated feature and best international feature. This delicate, wordless film from Latvian director Gints Zilbalodis follows a cat, a dog and various other creatures as they team up to survive after a catastrophic flood. In theaters and available for rental. Plus, we discuss "September 5," a gripping drama that recounts the hostage crisis that

We're here to serenade you on this Valentine's Day episode of Breakfast All Day with reviews of two new music documentaries. Alonso's not feeling well, so his husband Dave White was lovely enough to share his insights. First, we discuss "Becoming Led Zeppelin," which traces the origins of one of the greatest bands in rock history. It's been playing for the past week in IMAX, and if you can see it that way, it's like being at a concert with that huge screen and incredible sound. Expanding to more

2025/02/13

We have early reviews today of a couple big Valentine's Weekend movies: That's how much we love you here at Breakfast All Day. First, the disappointing "Captain America: Brave New World," which looked like it had potential as a suspenseful, '70s-style political thriller. Anthony Mackie is very good as he straps on the shield and steps into Chris Evans' Avengers role, but the movie itself is a mess. In theaters. Then, we were both delighted by "Paddington in Peru," the follow-up to one of Alonso's

2025/02/08

It's an extremely February mix on the latest Breakfast All Day episode, including a terrible Valentine's movie and an excellent Oscar nominee. We begin with "Love Hurts," which we thought had potential because it stars Ke Huy Quan and Ariana DeBose, both recent Academy Award winners. But they have zero chemistry with each other in this action romance. In theaters. Then we review "No Other Land," a documentary from a collective of Palestinian and Israeli filmmakers who captured the Israeli

This might be the art-housiest Arthouse Tuesday we've ever done, as we catch up with two of the five films nominated for best international feature at this year's Oscars. The first, "I'm Still Here," is also up for the top prize of all, best picture, as well as best actress for Fernanda Torres' beautifully subtle performance. Torres stars in this true story as a wife and mother trying to hold her family together during Brazil's military dictatorship in the early 1970s. Veteran filmmaker Walter

January finally -- mercifully -- has come to an end. And we're here to help you wrap it up with a quick visit on Breakfast All Day. First, we review "You're Cordially Invited," the kind of comedy that used to come out in actual theaters but is now streaming on Prime Video. Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell clash in this extremely R-rated wedding comedy. It's getting extremely mixed reviews but we laughed a lot. Then, we have a SPOILER review of the sci-fi thriller "Companion," because we didn't

It's a random Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day, with reviews of two extremely different films. First, we discuss the documentary "Luther: Never Too Much," about the late, legendary R&B singer Luther Vandross. Director Dawn Porter's film is an appreciative exploration of Vandross' talent, work ethic and attention to detail. Whether you're a huge fan or you don't know much about him, you'll find this entertaining. In theaters this weekend, streaming on OWN starting Feb. 7 and Max starting

2025/01/25

For the most part, it's a surprisingly good week for January movies here at Breakfast All Day. We begin with the one that's not so good: "Flight Risk," and even that's not completely terrible. Mark Wahlberg stars as a pilot flying a U.S. Marshal (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) to Anchorage, but the skies aren't so friendly. Mel Gibson directs, which you'd never know from the trailers. In theaters. Then, we loved "Presence," the latest experimental lark from Steven Soderbergh. It's

We had an incredible turnout today for our annual Oscar Nominations LIVE Chat! Thanks to all the lovely folks who woke up early with us on Hollywood's biggest morning. "Emilia Pérez" leads all nominees with 13 -- which is historic for a foreign-language film -- followed by "The Brutalist" and "Wicked" with 10 each. We were thrilled by some nominations (Coralie Fargeat in best director for "The Substance") and bummed by the omission of others (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross in best score for

We've got some mediocre January movies and a lengthy news segment to keep you company on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Wolf Man," director Leigh Whannell's take on the classic creature feature. Christopher Abbott stars as a husband and father who takes his family back to his childhood home in the Oregon woods. Bad things happen. Julia Garner and Matilda Firth co-star. In theaters. Then, Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx re-team for the generic comedy "Back in Action." Diaz

It's been a devastating week here in Southern California, with historic, deadly wildfires destroying thousands of homes. We've never seen anything like it. But we also wanted to show up for you, be consistent, and maybe provide some comfort for a little while. So if you're in need of that, we're here for you at Breakfast All Day. We have a couple of movie reviews , starting with "Better Man," an unconventional music biopic in which British pop superstar Robbie Williams appears as a chimp. Yes, you

It's our last episode of 2024! If you're out and about running those final few errands and buying last-minute gifts, we'd be delighted to keep you company with some movie reviews here at Breakfast All Day. First, we catch up with "Carry-On," a lean, mean thriller from Spanish action director Jaume Collet-Serra ("Unknown, "Orphan," "The Shallows"). Taron Eegrton stars as a TSA agent stuck working at LAX on Christmas Eve. Jason Bateman is the menacing voice on an earpiece who makes him put a

It's Arthouse Tuesday on a Friday here at Breakfast All Day, as we review a couple of major awards contenders. First, we rave about "The Brutalist," which will end up on both of our year-end top-10 lists. Brady Corbet's epic is a stunning achivement (and a lengthy one at 3 1/2 hours, including an intermission). Adrien Brody stars as a visionary architect who travels to the United States after World War II, seeking artistic freedom and success. Guy Pearce, Felicity Jones, Joe Alwyn and Alessandro

We're here to stuff your stocking (and stock your stuffing) with a lengthy, mid-week episode of Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Mufasa: The Lion King," a live-action prequel that traces the origin of the leader of the Pride Lands. Academy Award winner Barry Jenkins ("Moonlight") directs, and while we're looking all over for his artistic stamp, we're sadly not finding it. In theaters this weekend.

We've got awards contenders and awful comic book movies and everything in between this week on Breakfast All Day. First, we have an early review of "Babygirl," which is one of Alonso's favorite movies of the year. Nicole Kidman stars as a high-powered CEO who falls into a torrid affair with her much younger intern, played by a seductive Harris Dickinson. It opens Christmas Day. Next, our great friend Tim Grierson was kind enough to step in for a review of "Kraven the Hunter" while Alonso is out of

Awards season is here and we're here for it on Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Nightbitch," starring Amy Adams as a stay-at-home mom who escapes the doldrums of her daily routine by turning into a dog and rampaging through the neighborhood. We have very different opinions on the latest film from Marielle Heller. In theaters now. Then, we discuss "Y2K," a comedy/disaster movie set on the eve of the millennium. A bunch of teenagers try to survive when the machines rise up and wreak havoc. Kyle

It's an extreme Arthouse Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day. First, we have a super-early review of "Nosferatu," Robert Eggers' exceptionally crafted retelling of the classic vampire story. Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Willem Dafoe and Bill Skarsgard co-star. It comes out Christmas Day, but we couldn't wait to talk about it, so we're reviewing it now. Next is "The End," Joshua Oppenheimer's ambitious drama about a family living in an elaborate underground bunker after an environmental disaster
