Episode 485: Wolfs, Will & Harper reviews
Description
There's a sneaky little theme that unites the two movies we review on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day: They both feature impressive, A-list casts, and you can watch both of them right now on streaming.
First, we discuss "Wolfs," an action comedy in which Brad Pitt and George Clooney play New York City fixers forced to team up on a wintry, all-night adventure. The film from writer-director Jon Watts mostly coasts on the considerable charm of its handsome actors. In select theaters and streaming on Apple TV+.
Then, we review the hilarious and emotional documentary "Will & Harper." Will Ferrell and his longtime friend and collaborator, Harper Steele, go on a cross-country road trip after Steele transitions to live as a woman. The fellow "Saturday Night Live" alums they visit include Tina Fey, Tim Meadows, Seth Meyers, Molly Shannon and Will Forte. In select theaters and streaming on Netflix.
Over at our Patreon, we recap the latest episodes of "Only Murders in the Building" on Hulu and "Agatha All Along" on Disney+.
No news this week because Alonso is in Dallas, but we do chat a bit at the beginning about the legendary Dame Maggie Smith, who died at 89. We'll honor her on our Patreon with our October Off the Menu poll, so if you're not already a member, you can join us here.
And you can join us on person at The Frida Cinema in Santa Ana, where we're hosting a screening of John Carpenter's 1980 horror classic "The Fog." Mark your calendar for Sunday, Oct. 27 at 2pm, then stick around afterward and watch us record a podcast review of the film. Tickets are available here. We hope to see you!
