Breakfast All Day movie reviews

We're freaking out in a "Moonage Daydream" here at Breakfast All Day, but we're also celebrating because it's our 300th episode! And this week is a great example of the totally random cross-section of stuff you get from us. Alonso and Christy review the trippy, kaleidoscopic David Bowie documentary, which is best experienced on the biggest screen you can find with the crispest sound. It comes out Friday, Sept. 16 in theaters, including several IMAX locations. Dan Murrell returns to help Christy catch up with the twisty horror movie "Barbarian," and we kept our review spoiler-free because you should go in knowing as little as possible. And we have a jam-packed news segment between D23, the Toronto International Film Festival and the death of French New Wave legend Jean-Luc Godard. We're thrilled you've stuck with us this long, so thank you!

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 Onion" and "My Policeman," Lea Michele in "Funny Girl," Beyond Fest celebrating "RRR" director S.S. Rajamouli and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 4 of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law," which was actually good! Thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Don't worry, darling — Breakfast All Day is back. And Alonso is recovering and feeling perky just in time to talk about whether Harry Styles actually spit on Chris Pine at the Venice Film Festival. Also in news, he and Christy discuss the movies premiering at Telluride, new trailers for "White Noise" and "Empire of Light," accusations against Arcade Fire's Win Butler, and Rob Schneider saying he'll toss away his career for his beliefs, whatever that means. We also catch up with a review of the satire "Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.," featuring excellent performances from Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown. And over at our Patreon, we finally recap the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building" as well as episodes 2 and 3 of "She-Hulk." Thanks for your patience!

Lace up your roller skates and join us for an end-of-summer edition of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with the comedy-drama-horror-romance "Spin Me Round," which is as messy as it sounds. It stars Alison Brie and Aubrey Plaza and is in theaters and streaming. And in our latest round of "Was It Great or Were You 8?" we had the pleasure of revisiting "Xanadu," which Christy still loves with zero irony. With the recent passing of Olivia Newton-John, this is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what made her so beloved. Come back next week when we'll have more movie news and reviews. Until then, stay cool over Labor Day weekend, and thanks for sharing some of your time with us.

Alonso's feeling a little under the weather this week, but the always delightful and insightful Katie Walsh was kind enough to fill in on a couple of Breakfast All Day film reviews. We discuss "Three Thousand Years of Longing," George Miller's disappointing follow-up to "Mad Max: Fury Road," and the extremely weird "Funny Pages," a comedy that feels like a return to the early days of indie film. We'll be back on Monday with news as well as TV recaps for our Patreon subscribers: the season 2 finale of "Only Murders in the Building," and episode 2 of "She-Hulk." Hope you're having a relaxing end of the summer, and thanks for sharing some of those lazy days with us.

In these lazy, last days of summer, we're catching up with a perfectly pleasant (if problematic) rom-com on Breakfast All Day: "Look Both Ways," a "Sliding Doors" homage starring Lili Reinhart. We also have an early review of "Breaking," in theaters Friday, starring John Boyega in the true story of a Georgia bank holdup. And in news, we discuss the #BamaRush phenomenon getting the documentary treatment, Bill Paxton, Gary Busey, "Spider-Man: No Way Home," "Avatar," Nick Kroll and more. Kick back and join us.

Idris Elba will save us all this week on Breakfast All Day. Our good friend Kristian Harloff joins Christy to review the thriller "Beast" (and if you're not already subscribed to his YouTube Channel, you should be). Alonso and Christy also review the nutty horror prequel "Orphan: First Kill." In news, we discuss Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill, "Wednesday," "Jaws," "Sesame Street" and more. And we've got a ton of great stuff over at our Patreon: recaps of the first episode of "She-Hulk: Attorney at Law" and the second-to-last episode of "Only Murders in the Building," plus a back-to-school Off the Menu discussion of 1973's "American Graffiti," the movie that put George Lucas on the map. Hop in your car, crank it up and cruise the boulevard with us. * Our latest Movie House Shout-Out goes to the historic and beloved Manor Theatre in Pittsburgh, where they're celebrating their 100th anniversary. They've also got a fantastic array of films planned for their End of Summer Blockbuster Fest, running from Aug. 26-Sept. 1. To buy tickets and learn more about the Manor, visit them here.

Hold on tight — we've got you here on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy catch up with "Fall," a lean, mean survival thriller that will make you seriously squirm in your seat if you're afraid of heights. In news, we discuss Ezra Miller, Tom Holland, Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis, Florence Pugh and Zach Braff, and we remember director Wolfgang Petersen. And over at our Patreon, our subscribers picked a great Off the Menu selection as summer draws to a close: 1973's "American Graffiti." Hop in your car, crank it up and join us.

We begin with sad news yet again on Breakfast All Day with the death of Anne Heche. Alonso and Christy discuss the actress' long and varied career and tragic end at just 53. Also in news: Armie Hammer, Fred Savage, the Golden Globes, "Nope," "Bodies Bodies Bodies" and more. Plus we have reviews of "Summering," from director and co-writer James Ponsoldt, and "Emily the Criminal," featuring yet another gripping dramatic performance from Aubrey Plaza. And for our Patreon subscribers, a recap of this week's "Only Murders in the Building." Could Michael Rapaport really be Glitter Guy? We're not so sure. Join us for a late summer hangout.

We're heartbroken here at Breakfast All Day over the death of Olivia Newton-John. Alonso and Christy discuss her film and music career and what she's meant as as pop culture icon for decades. Also in news: box office, Anne Heche, Jennette McCurdy, the Spice Girls and Nicole Kidman, who will return as the face of AMC Theaters. We also have a couple of reviews for you: the horror flick "They/Them" on Hulu, and the cringe comedy "I Love My Dad." Thanks so much for joining us during these waning days of summer.

Alonso and Christy are heading in different directions in our review of the star-studded, action-packed "Bullet Train" on Breakfast All Day. But we agree that the "Predator" prequel "Prey" on Hulu and A24's horror comedy "Bodies Bodies Bodies" are both pretty kick-ass, and you should see them as summer movie season winds down. In news, we talk about the whole "Batgirl" fiasco, the passing of the legendary Vin Scully and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episode of "Only Murders in the Building," which sheds some light on Mabel's past. Hop on and join us.

And we're back! Vacation is over and it's time to play catch-up on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have a lengthy, spoiler-filled review of Jordan Peele's "Nope," and we slog through "The Gray Man," the latest big-budget, star-studded action extravaganza on Netflix. And in news, we discuss everything that's been going on the past couple of weeks: the Bennifer wedding, Comic-Con, the "Wakanda Forever" trailer, Will Smith's video apology for the Oscar slap, and several celebrity deaths including Paul Sorvino and Nichelle Nichols. Hope your summer's been restful, and thanks for spending part of it with us.

Oh hey, it's just us, doing another round of Ask Us Anything on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso answer more of your questions, ranging from our favorite movies to recommend to people, to the best Harrison Ford role, to how we got started as film critics. We also review the second half of SS Rajamouli's two-part Telugu extravaganza, 2017's "Baahubali: The Conclusion," which we ended up liked better than "Baahubali: The Beginning." We'll be back next week with reviews of new movies, including "Nope" and "Bullet Train." Thanks for sharing part of your summer with us!

We loved "RRR" so much and got so many great suggestions of other Telugu films to watch that we're now digging into "Baahubali: The Beginning" on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy were blown away by SS Rajamouli's 2015 movie, and we'll have a review of part two, "Baahubali: The Conclusion," next week. Also this week, we introduce a new segment we're so excited about: Was It Great, or Were You 8? We'll look back at movies we loved when we were 8 years old to see whether they truly were great, or we're just remembering them fondly through the rosy lens of nostalgia. First off: Alonso has chosen "The Bad News Bears" from 1976. When you're done listening, you can vote on our YouTube poll. Let us know what you think, and thanks for spending part of your summer with us!

Dakota Johnson breaks the fourth wall to offer dry, witty asides and the well-timed eyeroll in a cheeky adaptation of Jane Austen's "Persuasion." Purists aren't loving it but Alonso and Christy had a good time, as you'll see from our Breakfast All Day review. In news, we discuss the Bradley Cooper-Huma Abedin romance, Delia Owens, Armie Hammer, Constance Wu, Joe Dante, trailers for "Orphan: First Kill" and "She Said," and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the thrilling season finale of "Ms. Marvel." Quick programming note: Christy's heading out on vacation for a couple of weeks, but we have lots of goodies planned in her absence, including another round of Ask Us Anything and a new segment we're really excited about. Thanks for listening, and we'll be back with new episodes the first week in August!

The moss is dripping and the cicadas are chirping, but we're not exactly joining the chorus of "Where the Crawdads Sing," the new movie based on the best-selling novel. It comes out Friday, and Alonso and Christy have an early review on Breakfast All Day. But we do have lots of good stuff in news, including Emmy nominations, "Thor: Love and Thunder" box office, the Lea Michele/Beanie Feldstein "Funny Girl" fiasco, Elon Musk backing out of buying Twitter, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons getting married, and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the latest episode of "Only Murders in the Building" on Hulu. Hop in your boat and join us.

We loved "Thor: Ragnarok," which makes the letdown of "Thor: Love and Thunder" that much more of a bummer. Alonso and Christy have a Breakfast All Day review of this wildly uneven MCU extravaganza. In news, we discuss the career of James Caan, who died at 82; the #Gentleminion backlash; trailers for "Clerks III" and "Amsterdam"; the George Clooney nipple batsuit; this weekend's Blobfest and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the epic "Stranger Things" season 4 finale and this week's "Ms. Marvel." Join us!

We're at the halfway point in the year, so it's a good time to look back at the best films we've seen so far on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have a bit of overlap, including the spectacular "RRR," but we have some variety, too. In news, we talk about the record opening for "Minions: The Rise of Gru," as well as the phenomenon of #Gentleminions, in which groups of young men get dressed up in suits and ties to watch the "Minions" sequel in the theater. Also: "Stranger Things," Tom Cruise's 60th birthday and the end of the Movie Trivia Schmoedown. And for our Patreon subscribers, a recap of this week's delightful yet poignant episode of "Only Murders in the Building." Thanks for joining us for this quick, midweek pop-in.

You can run but you can't hide: Those little yellow dudes are storming into theaters this holiday weekend with the sequel "Minions: The Rise of Gru." Christy's friend and fellow YouTube critic Dan Murrell was kind enough to slog through it with her on Breakfast All Day, and they had more fun talking about the movie than actually watching the movie itself. Alonso and Christy also review the Regency-era rom-com "Mr. Malcolm's List," which is entertaining but feels familiar and inferior compared to "Bridgerton." In news, we discuss the Cinerama Dome, R. Kelly, Dakota Johnson, Tim Allen, Cameron Diaz and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the gripping second-to-last episode of "Stranger Things" season 4 (we'll get to the finale next week) as well as "Ms. Marvel" E4. Stay safe this weekend and thanks for sticking with us.

We're trying something a little different in our midweek Breakfast All Day drop-in: Season two of "Only Murders in the Building" has begun on Hulu, and Alonso and Christy are sharing our recap of the first two episodes widely. It's the kind of content we usually offer exclusively to our Patreon subscribers, and we hope you'll consider joining us there for upcoming recaps this season as well as all of our TV coverage year-round. And in news, we discuss "Elvis" box office, the celebrity response to the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, Alec Baldwin interviewing Woody Allen, and the theory that Maverick's actually dead for most of the "Top Gun" sequel. What do you think? Let us know, and thanks for hanging out with us.

Are you lonesome tonight? Or sad, or scared, or seething with a white-hot rage over the state of things? Alonso and Christy hope to provide a bit of solace and escape on the latest Breakfast All Day Podcast. We touch briefly on the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade in news, plus discuss The Odd 1s Out, Florence Pugh, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3," Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall's divorce and more. Of course we had to review the Baz Luhrmann extravaganza "Elvis," as well as the completely charming "Marcel the Shell With Shoes On" and the gripping horror film "The Black Phone." And for our Patreon pals, recaps of the "Obi-Wan Kenobi" finale and this week's "Ms. Marvel." We're here for you no matter what, so thanks for sticking with us. Be safe out there.

Alonso and Christy may be a little late for the ceremony, but we RSVPd yes to "Father of the Bride" on Breakfast All Day. We were both charmed by the latest version of this classic comedy, starring Andy Garcia and Gloria Estefan, which is streaming on HBO Max. We also went back in time to 1958 to review "The Blob" in honor of our Movie House Shout-Out of the week, The Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville, PA. That's where much of the classic B-horror movie was shot, and it's where the annual Blobfest will take place July 8-10. Watch the movie with fellow "Blob" fans, then run screaming from the theater together in terror! Tickets are on sale now. And in news, we discuss "Lightyear" box office, the latest "Stranger Things" trailer, Ben Stiller visiting Ukraine, and the documentary "George Michael: Freedom Uncut," in theaters one night only on June 22. We don't want your freedom, as Wham! sang, so thanks very much for sticking with us.

We'd like to go to infinity and beyond here at Breakfast All Day, but "Lightyear" has us feeling like we're slogging through molasses. Alonso and Christy do not exactly have a stellar review of Pixar's "Toy Story" spinoff. We also review a couple of Sundance Film Festival favorites that are finally finding their way to the outside world: "Cha Cha Real Smooth" on Apple TV+ and in theaters, which has us quite divided, and "Good Luck to You, Leo Grande" on Hulu, which we both adored. In news, we discuss Ryan Gosling as Ken, Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe, BTS, Tom Hanks and the late French cinema legend Jean-Louis Trintignant. And we've got an insane amount of stuff for you over at our Patreon: finales of "Stranger Things" (for now) and "The Offer," plus the latest on "Ms. Marvel," "Obi-Wan Kenobi" and an Off the Menu review of "Rafiki" for Pride month. Join us!

We couldn't imagine discussing "The Godfather" without our dear friend Ben Mankiewicz, so we were thrilled he was able to join us on our midweek Breakfast All Day drop-in. We revisit the Coppola classic for its 50th anniversary, and because we're coming up on the finale of "The Offer" (which we've been recapping on our Patreon). Christy and Alonso also review the Jennifer Lopez documentary "Halftime," which Christy is in (extremely briefly). And in news, we discuss the "Jurassic World Dominion" box office, Jennifer Hudson's EGOT, "Lightyear," Philip Baker Hall, and friend of the show Geoff Swanson, who died unexpectedly last week at just 34. * The extremely cool Grail Moviehouse in the heart of Asheville, NC's River Arts District gets this week's Movie House Shout-Out. They show indies like "Cha Cha Real Smooth," documentaries, and they're playing the annual Cat Video Fest starting June 24. To learn more about their programming or become a donor, you can find them here. Thanks to the Grail Moviehouse for helping spread the word on the work we're doing to support indie theaters!

It's time for more stomping and chomping on Breakfast All Day as we review "Jurassic World Dominion," supposedly the final film in the franchise. But as Jeff Goldblum likes to say, "Life finds a way," so who knows? Alonso and Christy also have a bunch of news for you, including Britney Spears getting married, the trailer for "Black Adam," the JLo documentary "Halftime" opening the Tribeca Film Festival (and we'll have a full review on Tuesday), Julia Garner playing Madonna and Rebel Wilson coming out. And we've got a ton of great stuff over at our Patreon: "Stranger Things," "Ms. Marvel," "Obi-Wan Kenobi," "The Offer" and a recap of "Heartstopper" season 1. Plus: We now have merch! Hoodies, T-shirts, doggy neckerchiefs and — of course — Breakfast All Day coffee mugs. Shop here at and show the world you have good taste in movies, too.

We're your cool rider and girl for all seasons on the latest Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy revisit the cult classic "Grease 2" on the occasion of its 40th anniversary Blu-Ray release. It's a movie Christy loves dearly with zero irony, and Alonso enjoys enough to indulge her by talking about it. We also review the shockingly great Adam Sandler basketball drama "Hustle," now out on Netflix. And in news, we discuss "Top Gun: Maverick" box office, the "Morbius" re-release, "Jurassic World Dominion" (which we'll have a full review of on Friday), Mariah Carey being sued, "The Northman" on Peacock and more. Hop on and join us!

It's Gnarly Friday here at Breakfast All Day, as Christy and Alonso review the trippy new David Cronenberg thriller "Crimes of the Future" as well as the astounding Indian sensation "RRR." In news, we discuss the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard verdict, Jada Pinkett Smith on The Slap, production beginning on "Furiosa," BTS at The White House, Quentin Tarantino's new podcast, Alonso's viewing of "RRR" at an #encoRRRe screening and more. And we've got a ton of great stuff for you over at our Patreon: recaps of "Stranger Things" episodes 3 and 4, plus the latest on "Obi-Wan Kenobi" and "The Offer." * Thanks again to the excellent folks at The Loft Cinema in Tucson, AZ, for teaming up with us this week. To learn more about their programming or become a donor, you can find them here.

It's a beautiful day to stay inside with us at Breakfast All Day. In news, Alonso and Christy talk about the surprise release of Bo Burnham's "Inside Outtakes," as well as "Top Gun: Maverick" box office, Kate Bush, Bradley Cooper, Rachel Zegler and more. (Also, we realize in retrospect that "Triangle of Sadness" is a Neon movie, not A24 -- apologies for the error.) We also have an early review of the delightfully raunchy, gay rom-com "Fire Island," which will begin streaming Friday on Hulu. And we do another round of Ask Us Anything, including questions about how we met and became friends, our advice on becoming a film critic, which director we'd teach a college course on and what's the craziest movie we've ever seen. This week's Movie House Shout-Out goes to a particularly rad theater: The Loft Cinema in Tuscon, AZ. You may remember them from our marquee segment when theaters were still closed early in the pandemic. To learn more about their inspired programming and community work, or to become a donor, you can find them here.

Only the Belchers can rescue us from this miserable week, so it's a good thing "The Bob's Burgers Movie" is finally coming out. Christy and Alonso have extremely different reviews on Breakfast All Day — Christy's a huge fan of the TV show so she had a blast, Alonso isn't so he didn't love it as much. In news, we briefly discuss the horrific school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and the celebrity response to it; the death of Ray Liotta at 67; Star Wars Celebration announcements; Cannes premieres of "Elvis" and "Stars at Noon"; and Harrison Ford returning for a fifth "Indiana Jones" movie. If you're looking for "Top Gun: Maverick," we reviewed it and the original "Top Gun" on Tuesday's episode. And over at our Patreon, we have a ridiculous amount of great stuff: recaps of the first two episodes of "Stranger Things" season 4, the first two episodes of "Obi-Wan Kenobi," and episode 7 of "The Offer." Thanks as always for sticking with us, stay safe, and enjoy the long weekend.

It's "Top Gun" Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day — kinda like Taco Tuesday, only with more chunks of real Tom Cruise in every bite. We have an early review for you of the long-awaited sequel, "Top Gun: Maverick," which Christy loved but Alonso wasn't quite as enthusiastic. We also revisit the original "Top Gun" from 1986, which the sequel recalls repeatedly, to see how it holds up today. And in news, we discuss several new trailers including "Thor: Love and Thunder," shake-ups at "Saturday Night Live," Dave Chappelle, Ricky Gervais, Ellen DeGeneres and more. Come back on Friday when we'll have a review of "The Bob's Burgers Movie." Until then, thanks for joining us in the Danger Zone!

It's raining "Men" … hallelujah? Katie Walsh joins Christy to try and work through Alex Garland's impeccably crafted, deeply disturbing thriller this week on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy also review something a bit lighter: the sequel "Downton Abbey: A New Era." In news, we discuss "Stranger Things" season 4 revelations, including the release of the first eight minutes of episode 1. Plus: Tom Cruise at Cannes, the trailer for the JLo documentary on Netflix (which Christy is in very, very briefly), "The Bob's Burgers Movie" premiere, "Heartstopper," "Bros," "She-Hulk" and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 6 of "The Offer" on Paramount+. "The Godfather" will get made eventually, we just know it! Thanks as always for joining us.

We've got a quick, midweek nibble for you on Breakfast All Day, but we promise it's packed with nutrients. Alonso and Christy review "On the Count of Three," comedian Jerrod Carmichael's directorial debut; it's a comedy about suicide, and we were so impressed with the tough tonal balance Carmichael strikes. In news, we talk box office, "Bridgerton" season 3, "Saturday Night Live," Britney Spears, "RRR" and more. And over at our Patreon, we have a May Off the Menu discussion of "Ordinary People" (1980), winner of four Academy Awards including best picture and best director for Robert Redford. Thanks for joining us and we'll see you again Friday! * This week's Movie House Shout-Out goes to The Grand Cinema in Tacoma, Washington. They offer both studio releases and arthouse fare, and they do lots of great work to promote a love of film in the community. To learn more about their programming or become a donor, you can find them here.

We didn't start the fire, but we're happy to sit around it and talk about the week's new movies on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy review the surprisingly dull "Firestarter," yet another adaptation of the Stephen King novel. Also: the Rebel Wilson comedy "Senior Year" on Netflix and "Pleasure," a provocative, Spirit Award-nominated look at the adult film industry. In news, we discuss the tragic closing of the Landmark Theatre in Los Angeles, sequels to "A Simple Favor" and "This Is Spinal Tap," Norm MacDonald, Patti LuPone, Fred Ward and more. And on our Patreon, we recap the latest episode of "The Offer" on Paramount+, which was surprisingly good. Thanks as always for joining us.

Hey, look, the trailer for the "Avatar" sequel is finally online, and we have some thoughts on your midweek Breakfast All Day drop-in. Alonso and Christy also discuss the giant opening for "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness," Fred Savage, Frank Langella, the "Dirty Dancing" sequel and more in news. And we have an in-depth spoiler discussion of the "Doctor Strange" sequel. You've been warned! But also, join us! We're happy to see you.

We're back with another episode of Marvel Mondays! Christy's surly tween, Nicolas, agreed to sit down with her to discuss "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness." The original "Doctor Strange" (2016) was a favorite of ours among all of the MCU movies, so we had high hopes, but ended up with mixed reviews. Nic and Christy talk about Sam Raimi's style, Wanda's motivation, America Chavez, the many characters and storylines that get woven in here and where they'd rank the "Doctor Strange" sequel within the franchise. Thanks as always for joining us, and we'll be back in July with a Marvel Monday discussion of "Thor: Love and Thunder"!

Bring on the bombast! That's what we say here at Breakfast All Day. The video for Lady Gaga's theme song from "Top Gun: Maverick" is out, and it's exactly as over the top as you want it to be (it's also insanely catchy and still stuck in Christy's head). Also in news, Alonso and Christy talk about Dave Chappelle, Amber Heard, Kim Kardashian, trailers for David Cronenberg's "Crimes of the Future" and Disney+'s "Obi-Wan Kenobi," and the illustrated children book of "Petite Maman," if you feel like sobbing alone in the comfort of your own home. We also have a couple of reviews, of course: the adorable queer rom-com "Crush" on Hulu, and the French abortion drama "Happening," which is excellent and unfortunately all-too relevant. And over at our Patreon, we recap the "Moon Knight" finale and the latest episode of "The Offer." Hold our hand and join us!

We're hopping through universes to reach you on this midweek edition of Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have an early review for you of "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness," which both found to be a bit disappointing, despite the Sam Raimi-ishness of it all. In news, we discuss Justin Lin, the Met Gala, Bill Murray, Naomi Judd and more. We'll have a full-on spoiler review of the "Doctor Strange" sequel next Tuesday, so be sure to check back. 'Til then, thanks for joining us! * This week's Movie House Shout-Out goes to The Belcourt Theatre in Nashville, Tennessee, a place near and dear to Alonso's heart from his days at Vanderbilt. To learn more about their history and programming or to become a donor, visit them here.

We're here to serve you up the latest movie news and reviews on Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy discuss yet another forgettable Liam Neeson action flick, "Memory," as well as the Finnish horror fairy tale "Hatching," which we both loved. In news, we talk about all the goings-on at CinemaCon — from "Avatar" and "Doctor Strange" sequels to the latest "Mission: Impossible" and, of course, that weird Olivia Wilde envelope thing. Plus we wish our dear friend and colleague, longtime Wall Street Journal film critic Joe Morgenstern, all the best in his retirement. Over at our Patreon, we recap this week's episode of "Moon Knight," which provided some clarity but left some mystery for the finale. And this week's Movie House Shout-Out goes to the Lumiere Cinema at the Music Hall in Beverly Hills, CA. They've got a fascinating story, they play new and repertory arthouse films, and they could use your support. Thanks for hanging out with us as always!

You've got questions, we've got answers, in our first Breakfast All Day Ask Us Anything! We asked you guys to send us questions on our YouTube community page and got such an overwhelming response, we were only able to get to a fraction of them (including one about "Showgirls"), but we'll do more, we promise. Alonso and Christy also review the charming indie rom-com "7 Days," which won the Spirit Award for best first feature earlier this year. In news, we discuss "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," Jerry West, box office, Elon Musk buying Twitter, Viola Davis and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap the first three episodes of the "Godfather" behind-the-scenes saga "The Offer" on Paramount+, which we're not sure about yet. Thanks for sharing some of your time with us this week.

We will avenge you this week on Breakfast All Day with a review of one of the most anticipated films in a while. Christy and Alonso rave about "The Northman," the latest trippy saga from director and co-writer Robert Eggers. We also review "Petite Maman," Celine Sciamma'a deeply moving French gem, which was one of our favorite movies of 2021 and is finally in theaters. In news, we discuss CNN+, Jerry West, Johnny Depp (again), Ezra Miller (again), George Michael and "Grease 2." And over at our Patreon, we recap episode 4 of "Moon Knight," which was finally good!

Nicolas Cage IS Nick Cage in "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent," and Alonso and Christy have an early review on Breakfast All Day. This movie is a total blast, and it comes out Friday. We also catch up with the mesmerizing "Memoria," the latest from Thai master Apichatpong Weerasethakul, which is playing somewhere sometime, possibly near you, in a traveling roadshow format. In news: the "Thor: Love and Thunder" trailer, "Fantastic Beasts" box office, Danny Elfman and Finneas at Coachella, the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial and more. And over at our Patreon, we revisit "Rabbit Hole," April's Off the Menu selection. Thanks as always for joining us!

The third "Fantastic Beasts" movie is out, but will there be a fourth and fifth as planned? Our mixed review reflects how not everyone is fully under the spell of this "Harry Potter" spinoff. The engaging and insightful Perri Nemiroff joins Christy to discuss "Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore." (You can find her YouTube channel here.) Also, Alonso and Christy review the darkly comic thriller "Dual," starring Karen Gillan and … Karen Gillan. In news, we remember Gilbert Gottfried and talk Cannes, Coachella, the JLo documentary, Cuba Gooding Jr., Bam Margera and more. And over at our Patreon, we wrap up "Bridgerton" season 2 on Netflix with a recap of the final two episodes, and we puzzle our way through episode 3 of "Moon Knight" on Disney+, which we're just not feeling. We'd love to hear your thoughts on all of this, and enjoy the weekend!

We've got breaking news and catch-up reviews for you on our midweek edition of Breakfast All Day. Alonso finally saw "Everything Everywhere All at Once" and had very different thoughts on it from the review Christy and Katie Walsh did a few weeks ago, so he chimes in with a rare re-review. By popular demand, we review Ti West's '70s horror homage "X." In news, we discuss the "Stranger Things" season 4 trailer, the Bennifer engagement, Britney Spears' pregnancy, "Sonic 2" box office and more. And over at our Patreon, we recap episodes 5 and 6 of "Bridgerton," where things are finally getting exciting. Plus, we're doing the first of our Movie House Shout-Outs.

Hop in and hang on: It's a new episode of Breakfast All Day. Our good friend Tim Grierson swings by to help Christy review the new Michael Bay extravaganza, "Ambulance," which we actually enjoyed. Christy and Alonso review the Celine Dion sorta-biopic "Aline," and catch up with the Judd Apatow Netflix comedy "The Bubble." We have breaking news from the Academy on Will Smith, as well as new details on Ezra Miller, Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick, Asghar Farhadi, the "Marcel the Shell With Shoes On" trailer and more. And there's some truly great stuff for our Patreon subscribers: the finale of "The Dropout," as well as recaps of "Bridgerton" E3-4 and the new "Moon Knight." Thanks as always for joining us!

We're back from spring break and ready to sink our teeth into the latest movies on Breakfast All Day. Christy and Alonso play catch up with "Morbius," which is terrible, and "Apollo 10 1/2," which is delightful. In news, we discuss the fallout from the Will Smith slap, Chris Rock's return to standup, Bruce Willis stepping away from acting because of aphasia, Jerrod Carmichael coming out, "Obi-Wan Kenobi" and more. We're also asking our listeners to recommend their favorite local movie theaters so we can give them a shout-out as part of a new partnership plan we're working on. And for our Patreon friends, recaps of the "Moon Knight" debut, the first two episodes of "Bridgerton" season 2, and the penultimate episode of "The Dropout." Be sure to come back Friday for the series finale, and thanks as always for sharing some of your time with us!

The next day, Christy and Alonso and are still sorting through what happened at the Oscars. What did you make of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock? Did your favorite movies win? And who was the best dressed? Let us know what you thought of those bizarre 2022 Academy Awards, and thanks for spending time with us throughout awards season.

Let us help you make your Oscar picks! Christy and Alonso have lots of thoughts on this year's Academy Award nominees — and we even went back and changed some of them as the season evolved and new front-runners emerged. If you'd like to see the videos we posted this week on our Breakfast All Day YouTube Channel, they're all right here. But you can always enjoy us in podcast form, as well. Let us know who you'd like to see win, and thanks for joining us!

Just a quick pop-in ahead of the Academy Awards here at Breakfast All Day. Alonso and Christy have some final thoughts before the big night, including those candid opinions from anonymous Oscar voters. We also discuss Asghar Farhadi, CinemaSins, and the trailers for "Men," "The Offer" and the new season of "Mystery Science Theater 3000." And we have a mixed review of the Sandra Bullock-Channing Tatum comedy "The Lost City." If you're looking for our review of "Everything Everywhere All at Once," Christy and Katie Walsh did one earlier this week. Make sure you keep an eye (and en ear) out for our Oscar picks in an upcoming episode. And we'll be back on Monday to discuss all the winners — but of course there are no losers. Thanks as always for hanging out with us!

We've got a quick but jam-packed midweek episode of Breakfast All Day. In news, Christy and Alonso discuss big wins for "CODA" at the Producers Guild and Writers Guild awards, Rachel Zegler, Amanda Bynes, "Jackass Forever," "The Godfather" trilogy and more. Then our great friend Katie Walsh joins Christy for an early review of "Everything Everywhere All at Once," which is as overwhelming as the title would suggest but also an excellent showcase for the many talents of Michelle Yeoh. Stay tuned later this week for our Oscar picks! And thanks for hanging out with us.
