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 I also have a bunch of news for you, including...

RogerEbert.com — The Tomorrow War
Chris Pratt took all the clout and popularity he amassed from starring in the “Jurassic World” and “Guardians of the Galaxy” franchises and used them to make … “The Tomorrow War,” a blandly derivative and overlong sci-fi thriller. Originally intended for theaters pre-pandemic, it’s now streaming through Amazon Prime Video....
Read moreBreakfast All Day Marvel Mondays: Avengers: Infinity War
It’s hard to believe we’re almost done with our Marvel Mondays series, but here we are with “Avengers: Infinity War” (2018). Nicolas and I talk about how fun it is to see the various Marvel characters interact with each other, whether Nic relates to surly Teenage Groot, how emotional the...
Read moreBreakfast All Day Marvel Mondays: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
Rocket and Drax and Groot — now in baby form — are back in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” (2017), the rare sequel that’s better than the original. At least I think so on this week’s episode of Marvel Mondays. Nicolas loves it, too, beginning with its exuberantly joyful...
Read moreBreakfast All Day Marvel Mondays: Guardians of the Galaxy
We had a complete blast with the pulpy and playful “Guardians of the Galaxy” (2014) on this week’s Marvel Mondays episode. We’ve finally made it to the movies Nicolas already has seen, so this was a rewatch, but one we were happy to do. Nic and I talk about how...

We’re giving you all a virtual hug while still maintaining proper social distancing on this week’s Breakfast All Day. Matt and I spend a big chunk of our latest episode discussing the impact of the coronavirus on the entertainment industry in general and our lives specifically. But because we are...
Read moreRogerEbert.com — Onward
“Onward” plays like very minor Pixar offering within their canon, which is unfortunate because it comes from such a personal place for writer and co-director Dan Scanlon. Tom Holland and Chris Pratt enjoy lively chemistry as they voice a pair of extremely different brothers who go on a journey to...

Everything is cool when you’re part of a team, especially when that team is the Breakfast All Day Podcast. For the second week in a row, Alonso, Ben, Matt and I all made it to the table. We talk about the high-energy “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part,” the...
Read moreRogerEbert.com — The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part
It falls just short of awesome, but “The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part” is still pretty good. Crammed with colorful characters and self-aware pop culture reference, it’s high-energy and a ton of fun. Nothing could compare to the original “LEGO Movie,” though, which I gave four stars and placed...
Read moreJurassic World
Universal Pictures Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of science-fiction violence and peril. Running time: 123 minutes. Two stars out of four. It’s silly of me, right? I have this notion that a big, splashy blockbuster should provide characters and story lines that matter, that engage us, so that there are...
