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...

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...

We’ve all been trapped inside like “The Woman in the Window” for far too long, but things are looking up here at Breakfast All Day. Matt, Alonso and I have mixed reactions to this brazen Hitchcock homage with an all-star cast led by Amy Adams. We also review “Spiral: From...

This week on Marvel Mondays, we get to revisit one of my absolute favorite MCU movies: “Doctor Strange” (2016), which is singular and funny and dazzling and, yes, strange.
