Just when you thought it was safe to listen to The Movie Breakdown, we're reviewing a giant dino shark movie in The Meg. We also have three Netflix originals for you. The biggest being a Kristen Bell and Kelsey Grammer team-up comedy called Like Father. We also head back to Spain again, this time we're reviewing a thriller in The Warning. We also discuss a documentary about the dangers of some cutting edge medical devices in The Bleeding Edge. After all the movie reviews, we look at the latest big changes announced by the Academy Awards and analyze the potential impacts. We want to thank you for listening to us, and if you love those episode then please spread the word to other movie fans.

Reminder that you can now subscribe either to The Movie Breakdown feed (a subscription link is at the top right hand of this site) or on iTunes (if you enjoy the show, please help us by giving us a five star review).


We apologize but there won't be any outline for The Movie Breakdownbecause we still have issues with consistent times from the player. If you know how to solve this problem then it would be greatly appreciated.
