Pete’s Dragon, Sausage Party, and Florence Foster Jenkins in Theaters

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.

Pete’s Dragon

• “It’s a total reimagining!”
• “It’s spectacular!”
• “You will cry happy tears, sad tears, it has you in the palm of it’s hand emotionally.”
• “I should be seeing it again in the theater.”
• “Should be the family film of the year.”
• See it!

Sausage Party

• “It should be so wrong it’s hilarious, but on the contrary it’s just really stupid. I was bored. It would have been a clever short film.”
• “The plot is a thinly veiled theme of peace in the middle east. And it seemed gross for the sake of being gross.”
• “Yes there’s sexism, homophobia, racism… and it’s not comical. It’s just lame.”
• “It’s just not worth it. Even the ending it pointless.”
• Skip it.

Florence Foster Jenkins

• “Based on a true story – one of the best trailers I’ve seen in a long time.”
• “Meryl is amazing. Could be her next Oscar nomination.”
• “Lovely movie. I really enjoyed it.”
• See it!
