This week Scott and I celebrate hitting our 109th episode of the Breakdown by returning to the Siskel & Ebert format that we were using a year ago. We do it with style by offering up reviews for five 2015 releases. We have the big disaster epic, Everest; the James "Whitey" Bulger crime biopic in Black Mass, the latest Anne Hathaway comedy, The Intern; the critically acclaimed sci-fi thriller Ex Machina; an indy comedy starring Adam Sandler, The Cobbler. It was a lot of fun returning to the old format and hopefully, you love it just as much. If you do then as always please spread the word.

Everest ***½ (CS) & *** (SM)
