About this season
Each episode features Ellen Fox and Brett Erlich reviewing two or three movies that are releasing that week in theaters. Originally, Ellen and Brett were backed by webcam reviews from viewers, comedians, professional critics, and independent filmmakers. This format changed during Season 2, when the webcam reviews were replaced by solely professional critics in front of a green screen at the show's actual studio.
