RYAN: This is the new apocalyptic comedy co-directed by and starring Seth Rogen. And it was primarily an excuse for him to get his friends together to hang out and have a good time on a film set for a few months. It’s absurd but a surprisingly original and fun movie. CHUCK: Absolutely. It felt ..

COMEDY
RYAN: The Incredible Burt Wonderstone marks the return of Jim Carrey to the big screen but he’s just a supporting character here. It’s really Steve Carell’s movie. Sadly, for the beginning half of the film, Steve was almost approaching that Ben Stiller/Adam Sandler territory where he’s not fresh anymore but he redeemed himself. Regardless, it’s ..
COMEDY
RYAN:Identity Thief starring Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy is the new R-rated comedy but is actually a little bit crime drama with a subplot that I really detested.

COMEDY
RYAN: Seeing the movie A Haunted House made me very unhappy with the whole situation. It’s with Marlon Wayans and spoofs the Paranormal Activity movies. I hate those movies so it stands to reason I would loathe this film. And I do. And on top of all the reasons why I hate those movies, this ..

COMEDY
RYAN: One of my most anticipated movies of the year, “Australia,” which re-teams Nicole Kidman with director Baz Luhrmann, is quite a masterpiece. CAROLINE: I’m not sure that’s the word I would use.
