Such a random mix of movies this week, but there's nowhere we'd rather talk about them than here with you on Breakfast All Day.
We begin with "Venom: The Last Dance," the third film in the Spider-Man spin-off franchise and easily the worst. It's fun when Tom Hardy's bickering and bantering with his gooey BFF, but that's about it. In theaters.
Then we discuss "Conclave," a star-studded airport novel brought to the big screen. It has the sheen of prestige but it's actually well-crafted trash. Ralph Fiennes and Stanley Tucci lead a strong ensemble cast in this thriller from "All Quiet on the Western Front" director Edward Bergen about the world's cardinals coming together to pick a new pope. In theaters.
Finally in movie news, we have lots to catch up on, including "The Brutalist" trailer, "The Substance" being considered in the musical/comedy category at the Golden Globes, the "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" AirBnB, our favorite political movies and more.
And join us this weekend for our in-person screening of John Carpenter's 1980 horror classic "The Fog"! We've been planning this live event for months and we're so excited it's finally here. If you're in Southern California, come to The Frida Cinema in Santa Ana on Sunday, Oct. 27. The movie starts at 2pm Pacific, and then we'll record a podcast review and hang out for a bit afterward. Tickets are available here. Hope to see you!: https://thefridacinema.org/movies/the-fog-presented-by-breakfast-all-day/
