BRUNCH: These Movies Are Rated TOO LOW on IMDB
It's no secret that we usually disagree with IMDB and think that a movie should be rated much higher. But sometimes, there are movies that are rated SO LOW that we have to step in and say something. On today's brunch, we each give 5 movies that are a 7.0 or lower on IMDB and then tell you what the proper rating should actually be.****LawnBright- Go to http://getlawnbright.com and use code CONFUSED for 15% off your first order Learn more about your ad choices.

My Cousin Vinny (1992)
Today's new episode is going to prove without a doubt that 'My Cousin Vinny' is still an enjoyable movie. The evidence in this episode is going to show that Marissa Tomei deserved her supporting actress award win and that Joe Pesci inspired a whole new generation of attorneys with his modern day take of a lawyer in a crusty, old, southern boomer world. You will hear the testimony’s of 3 passionate podcast hosts who most likely stole all their commentary and thoughts from other movie podcasts. As a listener, your verdict of this movie is gonna depend on what you think of the sworn testimony. Not what we think. What we think don't count. You're the jury. It's your job to decide what your modern day take is. We're gonna be asking you to return a verdict of not only a good modern day rating for this movie but we are also going to be asking your for a 5-star rating on Spotify and Apple Podcasts when you are done listening. The prosecution rests….•0:00:00 - Introductions•0:02:45 - Memories of first viewing•0:07:15 - Pertinent movie details •0:11:00- Critical and fan reviews•0:22 :00 - Scene by scene breakdown •1:46:00 - Modern day ratings——————————————————————SPONSOR:**VENICE.AI- Get 20% off a Pro Plan by using our link: http://venice.ai/breakfast and the code “BREAKFAST.**Support us at http://patreon.com/confusedbreakfast for bonus weekly episodes, voting on upcoming movies, giving your modern-day ratings on our movies and much more.**Mail us something The Confused BreakfastPO Box 10016Cedar Rapids, IA52402-9802Special thanks to our executive producers- Josh Miller, Starling, Michael Guiliano and NicMad.Welcome to our newest members - Danny Laudati, Samantha Scott, Joe Allen, PO Muff, Charles W Forsythe, Allen Cline, Blake Zink.
