Friend of the Rocker Morning Show, man-about town, movie critic, and raconteur, Ryan Jay stopped by The Rocker Morning Show to talk movies opening this weekend.

  • Steve Jobs:
    • This is all A-list: Danny Boyle – director, Aaron Sorkin – writer, and Michael Fassbender/Kate Winslet – actors.  They’re all at the top of their game.
    • In two hours, it feels like it whips by in ten minutes.
    • You can’t blink in this movie.  You have to stay alert to pay attention
    • These scenes are like car chases.  You can’t be bored watching this.  The performances are great.  Fassbender is so talented.  He really looks like him at the end, like how I remember him.  His American accent it great.
    • It has much buzz going into awards season for all of the major categories.  It’s very enjoyable – fantastic filmmaking and storytelling.
    • See it!
  • The Last Witch Hunter:
    • This is a Halloween action film and I’m thrilled to see a movie featuring witches, when so many seem to tell the story of other kinds of monsters.
    • Sadly, it’s not Vin Diesel’s best performance.
    • If you enjoy witches like I do, the lore and mythology is fun to see in this.
    • Rent it!
  • Jem & the Holograms:
    • Snowballs in a good direction.
    • Lead is a great singer
    • Very bubblegum
    • “I enjoyed it.”
    • If you’re nostalgic for the show, go see it!
    • Rent it!
