Breakfast All Day Podcast 2/13/20
Love is in the air this Valentine’s Day weekend, and we’re all swooning for the romantic drama “The Photograph” on Breakfast All Day. Alonso, Matt and I also review “Downhill,” the English-language remake of “Force Majeure,” which is a huge disappointment; “To All the Boys: P.S. I Still Love You,” the sequel to the charming Netflix hit “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before”; and “Portrait of a Lady on Fire,” one of the best films of 2019 which is now getting a wider theatrical release. And over at our Patreon, we recap episode six of “The Outsider” and we discuss the first two episodes of the six-part docu-series “McMillions,” about the fraud surrounding the McDonald’s Monopoly game, which is just nuts. (Both are on HBO if you’d like to watch along with us.) This year, for being our valentines, we give you the gift of podcasting. Enjoy.
What? No Sonic the Hedgehog? I was looking forward to seeing you guys tear that one to pieces. I’ve been mess with someone lady on the movie’s Facebook page who claims it’s a 10/10.
no review of sonic the hedgehog?
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
Hi everyone — we’ll catch up with Sonic next week. None of us had seen it by the time we recorded Thursday morning. I took my son to see it last night, though, and was surprised at how fun it was. So come back next week! Thanks for asking.
About “Portait of a Lady in fire”.
I found this user comment on Rotten Tomatoes:
“I am a Christian, conservative, anti-feminist and anti-LBGT ** But this film is a clever, poignant, beautiful piece of art.”
When deeply conservative trolls and lefty film critics agree, this movie must be miraculously great. I can’t wait to watch it! 😉
