It's a mixed bag of summer movies with a special guest stopping by on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day.
We begin with a review of "Materialists," Celine Song's follow-up to her Oscar-nominated 2023 drama "Past Lives." Dakota Johnson plays a New York City matchmaker who must choose between Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal. It's the eternal conundrum. In theaters.
Then our good friend William Bibbiani drops in to help out with a review of "How to Train Your Dragon." If you've seen the beloved animated original, you've seen this live-action remake. Mason Thames, Nico Parker and Gerard Butler co-star. In theaters now.
And we wrap up with a re-watch of "Rogue One," the 2016 "Star Wars" movie about the mission to steal the Death Star plans. Now that the phenomenal prequel series "Andor" has finished, we wanted to see how this film plays with fresh perspective. Have you seen "Rogue One" lately? Let us know your thoughts.
No news this week, but we hope to catch up with you next Friday. Have a great weekend, and if you're going to a No Kings protest on Saturday, stay safe!
