The two Charlotte reviewers will offer their takes on the seasonal flicks they've already seen, such as Man of Steel, Before Midnight and Star Trek Into Darkness, as well as preview upcoming titles like World War Z, The East and The Lone Ranger.

One of the themes for this show will be the heavy use of CGI in summer blockbusters. Joining the Charlotte gang by phone will be Erik Nash, a visual effects supervisor who's been Oscar-nominated for his work on I, Robot and Real Steel and who has also worked on such blockbusters as Titanic, The Avengers and this summer's Iron Man 3.
