Got a couple of biggies for you on this midweek drop here at Breakfast All Day.
First, we review "Toy Story 5," the latest installment in the beloved Pixar Animation franchise. This is a step up from the fourth film, with some great new additions alongside the characters you know and love. Tom Hanks, Joan Cusack, Greta Lee, Tim Allen and Conan O'Brien co-star. In theaters June 19.
We also did a live spoiler chat about "Disclosure Day." There's so much we didn't want to discuss in our non-spoiler review of Steven Spielberg's new sci-fi epic, particularly the ending. But now that the film has been in theaters for several days, it's time to go in-depth. Listen and share your thoughts.
Keep and eye (and ear) out on Friday for reviews of "Leviticus" and "The Death of Robin Hood," as well as our usual Movie News LIVE! Thanks for being here.

The big movie of the week is, of course, "Disclosure Day," which we reviewed in our last Breakfast All Day podcast episode.
But other movies do exist, namely "The Furious," a thrilling action film hitting theaters with a ton of well-justified buzz. It's as bloody as it is beautifully choreographed. Co-starring Xie Miao and Joe Taslim as unlikely allies teaming up to infiltrate a child trafficking ring in Southeast Asia. In theaters.
We also did our weekly Movie News LIVE! Always a lot to discuss, including early "Disclosure Day" reactions, our picks for top 5 Spielberg films, the trailer for "The Social Reckoning" and more. Join us at our YouTube channel on Fridays at Noon Pacific.

Come see Alonso June 24-27 at a series of "Hollywood Pride" movie screenings in Los Angeles: https://www.americancinematheque.com/series/hollywood-pride-presents-int-movie-theatre/
"Disclosure Day" is finally here, and we've got an early, spoiler-free review on this midweek episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast.
Steven Spielberg's latest sci-fi summer blockbuster finds Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor trying to understand their connection with the alien world, and each other. Co-starring Colin Firth, Colman Domingo and Eve Hewson. It's in theaters June 12, but we wanted to talk about it as soon as we possibly could.
Come back next Tuesday, June 16 for a "Disclosure Day" LIVE spoiler chat. That'll be at Noon Pacific over at our Breakfast All Day YouTube channel.
We also reviewed both versions of "Cape Fear" -- the films from 1962 and 1991 -- in preparation for the Apple TV series, which we've begun recapping right here at our Patreon. Watch along with us and share your thoughts, as well as your memories of Robert Mitchum and Robert De Niro in the terrifying Max Cady role.

School's out for summer and we've got something for everyone on the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast. Here's what we reviewed:
MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE. It's yet another '80s nostalgia trip, this one inspired by the Mattel toys and cartoon series about He-Man and Skeletor. Director Travis Knight finds a cheeky, self-aware tone. Nicholas Galitzine, Jared Leto and Idris Elba star. In theaters.
SCARY MOVIE (2026). This is the sixth "Scary Movie" movie if you're keeping track, but the first one in a long time from the Wayans brothers. Name a recent horror movie and they're spoofing it here, with hit-and-miss results. In theaters.
OFFICE ROMANCE. Jennifer Lopez is back in rom-com territory as the CEO of an airline who falls for a new lawyer on her staff (Brett Goldstein, who also wrote the script with 'Ted Lasso" co-creator Joe Kelly). We don't agree on whether this raunchy comedy works. Streaming now on Netflix.
MOVIE NEWS LIVE! So much to discuss as always, including Bleak Week, Martin Scorsese's thoughts on AI, tickets sales for "The Odyssey," the "60 Minutes" showdown and more. Join us at our YouTube channel on Fridays at Noon Pacific.

Happy June! We've got a couple of reviews to kick off your month here at Breakfast All Day:
PRESSURE. We're catching up with this ultimate dad movie, which looks like it's about D-Day, but it's actually about weather. A solid, old-fashioned World War II drama. Andrew Scott, Brendan Fraser, Kerry Condon, Damian Lewis and Chris Messina star. In theaters.
BACKROOMS LIVE SPOILER CHAT. There's so much we didn't want to ruin in our spoiler-free review of the A24 horror movie last week. But now that it's out -- and so many people have seen it -- we thought it was time to go more in-depth. This was a great conversation. Keep an eye out for more spoiler livestreams throughout the summer.
Thanks for being here with us midweek!

It's a long holiday weekend, so an extra-long episode of our Breakfast Al Day podcast seems fitting. Here's what we reviewed as we head into Memorial Day:
I LOVE BOOSTERS. Boots Riley is back with another maximalist, absurdist comedy. He follows up 2018's "Sorry to Bother You" with the story of a group of women who steal designer clothes and sell them at discount prices. Starring Keke Palmer, Taylour Paige, Naomi Ackie and Demi Moore. In theaters.
TUNER. The best new movie of the week. Oscar-winning documentarian Daniel Roher ("Navalny") makes his narrative feature debut with the story of a New York piano tuner (Leo Woodall) who uses his super-sensitive hearing to work as a safecracker on the side. Co-starring Dustin Hoffman and Havana Rose Liu. In limited release now, opening nationwide May 29.
IS GOD IS. We got a ton of requests to catch up with this stylish Southern thriller from last week, and we're so glad we did. Writer-director Aleshea Harris adapts her stage play about twins who go on a cross-country road trip of revenge against their father, who tried to kill their mother. Kara Young and Mallori Johnson are both tremendous. This is a must-see. In theaters.
MOVIE NEWS LIVE! We're back with lots to discuss, including "The Mandalorian and Grogu," "The Boys" series finale, the last Stephen Colbert show, Tom Hardy getting fired from "MobLand," the Cannes Film Festival and more. Join us on Fridays at Noon Pacific.

It's not exactly an Arthouse Tuesday, but it is a Tuesday here at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we've got for you on our latest episode:
THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU (NO Spoilers!). We had a lot of fun with this standalone "Mandalorian" movie, a big-screen version of the Disney+ series. (We recapped all three seasons, in case you'd like to revisit the show with us at our Patreon; these videos are also available for individual purchase for our free members, as is the whole collection.) Pedro Pascal returns as the stoic bounty hunter, alongside his gifted, green sidekick, Grogu. They go on adventures across the galaxy. Summer is here! In theaters Friday.
OBSESSION. So many of you asked us to review this, so of course we had to do just that, even though Alonso is admittedly a chicken about horror movies. We both dug this one though, from YouTuber-turned-filmmaker Curry Barker. A meek guy (Michael Johnston) is too afraid to tell the girl of his dreams (a tremendous Inde Navarrette) that he's interested in her, so he buys a novelty item and makes a wish for her to fall in love with him instead. Things do not go as planned. In theaters now.
Mark your calendars for Noon Pacific on Friday, May 22, when we'll be back with Movie News LIVE! at our YouTube channel. And join us again at Noon Pacific on Tuesday, May 26, when we'll do a LIVE spoiler chat about "The Mandalorian and Grogu." See you then!

Birds of a feather stick together -- and so do sheep -- on this week's episode of the Breakfast All Day podcast. Here's what we reviewed for you:
THE SHEEP DETECTIVES. Hugh Jackman stars as a shepherd at a cozy English farm. When he's murdered, the sheep try to figure out who committed the crime. This movie is shockingly great. Co-starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Nicholas Braun, Emma Thompson and Nicholas Galitzine. In theaters.
BILLIE EILISH - HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR (LIVE IN 3D): The title is clunky but the movie is thrilling. Eilish co-directed this concert film with James Cameron, captured over four nights in Manchester during her "Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour." It's beautiful and vibrant, intimate and awe-inspiring at once. In theaters.
MOVIE NEWS LIVE! We're back after a week away to discuss "The Boys," "The Bear," "The Odyssey," the Met Gala, Ted Turner and more. We're off again next Friday, but come on back on May 22.
