Episode 381: Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, Joy Ride, Wham! documentary

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to join us for reviews of some big summer movies here at Breakfast All Day. We begin with an early look at the thrilling "Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One," which is in theaters July 12. See the latest Tom Cruise extravaganza on the biggest screen you can with the best possible sound. We also review the extremely R-rated comedy "Joy Ride," which features a great cast and a healthy mix of raunchy and sweet. Of course we had to review the "Wham!" documentary on Netflix, since Christy's loved the British pop duo for the past four decades. It's an extremely enjoyable watch. And over at our Patreon, we recap this week's "Secret Invasion" on Disney+ and "The Bear" episodes 5 and 6 (the star-studded Christmas fiasco) on Hulu. Thanks for sharing some of your summer with us! Want to review a movie with Christy and Alonso? Here's how: We offer a service at Breakfast All Day called Table for One. You pick a film, we all talk about it together, then we send you the video to enjoy. It's been so much fun and a great way to get to know our viewers better.

Episode 379: Movie News, Extraction 2

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 Feelings," plus box office and the real-life Barbie Malibu dream house. Thanks as always for joining us!

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 gutting of Turner Classic Movies, and a bunch of new trailers including "Challengers" and "The Beanie Bubble." And speaking of "Secret Invasion," we recap episode 1 of the new Disney+ Marvel series on our Patreon along with the first two episodes of "The Bear" season 2 on Hulu. Heard, Chef!

Episode 376: The Blackening, Lynch/Oz reviews

We're dropping in with a quick, mid-week catch-up on a couple of movies we think you'll enjoy. First, we review "The Blackening," a horror comedy that takes a sharp, satirical look at the way black characters so often are depicted in slasher flicks. Plus, we discuss the documentary "Lynch/Oz," a thrilling and thought-provoking video essay that explores how "The Wizard of Oz" has influenced David Lynch over the years. (For a list of release dates throughout the summer, click here.) Check back with us on Friday for an early look at "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." Until then, thanks for sharing some of your time with us here at Breakfast All Day!

Episode 375: Movie News, Elemental review

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 Cormac McCarthy and comic artist John Romita Sr. Also: the Netflix "Wham!" documentary trailer, and the possibility of Sarah Polley directing a live-action "Bambi" for Disney. Over at our Patreon, we review Celine Sciamma's 2011 drama "Tomboy" for June's Off the Menu selection. And be sure to visit our YouTube channel on Wednesday, June 21 at 10 am PDT for LIVE spoiler chat about "The Flash" and any other summer movies you'd like to discuss. Thanks as always for hanging out with us!

Episode 374: Movie News, Asteroid City review

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 remember Treat Williams and discuss box office, "The French Connection," Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's winery dispute and more. Thanks for listening to the latest episode of Breakfast All Day!

Episode 373: Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, Flamin' Hot

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 both Disney+ and Hulu. Grab yourself a bowl of something salty and spicy and join us! And thanks for being here.
