Buckle up and hang on for the gravity-defying spectacle that is Breakfast All Day. Alonso, Matt and I review the latest in “The Fast Saga,” “F9,” which we’re mixed on but agree is a great reason to go back to the movies. We also review the middling Liam Neeson actioner...

Breakfast All Day Marvel Mondays: Ant-Man and the Wasp
This week on Marvel Mondays, we discuss “Ant-Man and the Wasp” (2018), which serves as a light, cool palate cleanser after the emotional intensity of “Avengers: Infinity War.” Nicolas and I didn’t enjoy this sequel as much the second time around — we found its plot too crammed and the...

Jump on in, the water’s fine here at Breakfast All Day. This week, Alonso, Matt and I review the new Pixar movie on Disney+, “Luca,” and have widely varying thoughts on it.

It’s our 200th episode of Breakfast All Day!

Director Will Gluck’s sequel places its farm characters in outrageous situations while simultaneously sneering at such selling out. The furry, CG-animated creatures are seamlessly integrated into...

Summer is heating up but it’s a tepid week movie-wise here at Breakfast All Day. Stick with us, though, because Matt, Alonso and I have reviews of the horror sequel “The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It,” the Indian film “The Disciple” on Netflix and “Port Authority,” an indie...
Read moreRogerEbert.com — Spirit Untamed
If you are an eight-year-old girl and/or you love horses, you will fit into the slim Venn diagram sliver that constitutes the ideal audience for “Spirit Untamed.” It’s a harmless animated adventure that will provide a bland diversion to young viewers. They won’t recognize how it wastes the abilities of...
Read moreBreakfast All Day Marvel Mondays: Thor: Ragnarok
This week on Marvel Mondays, we’re up to a movie I’d been excited to rewatch from the very beginning: “Thor: Ragnarok” (2017). It’s one of my absolute favorites because it’s goofy, weird and full of surprises. Nicolas and I talk about how the humor in Taika Waititi’s film comes from...
