RYAN: Director Lars von Trier is often a hard pill to swallow. The same can be said of his work. His movies are critically acclaimed but not that altogether watchable for the average moviegoer. And though his latest movie, Melancholia, has a bit more narrative than most of his films, he still managed to alienate ..
RYAN: Once in a while a movie comes along that’s quite simply put as timely. Margin Call is one such film. CAROLINE: Totally. It’s all about the stock market and what went down in 2008. And with Occupy Wall Street and such, it’s super relevant. I still want to see this movie – I’ve heard ..
RYAN: Nicole Kidman, Nicolas Cage in a Joel Schumacher movie… I don’t know why this didn’t get a wide release. CAROLINE: Well, as you know, I’m not at all a fan of Nic Cage so I didn’t care. What did you think of it? RYAN: I fully enjoyed it and although I watched it at ..
RYAN: I’m so pleasantly surprised by the latest incarnation of The Three Musketeers… in pretty much every respect. CAROLINE: Oh really? I didn’t expect to hear that. RYAN: That may be part of it. My expectations were low since it basically bombed at the box office last weekend. CAROLINE: So who are these musketeers? RYAN: ..
RYAN: So I caved in and attended the third Paranormal Activity movie. CAROLINE: Oh God. We hated the first one and you said the second wasn’t much better. RYAN: Well this is definitely the best of the three but that really isn’t saying much. Really. CAROLINE: Why am I not surprised? RYAN: It’s actually a ..
RYAN: I could barely wait to see the remake of Footloose primarily because I love musicals and then whilst watching I remembered it’s really not a musical. It’s just a movie with some dancing. CAROLINE: …just a movie. I would have seen this with you if I could have. How did you like it? RYAN: ..
RYAN: George Clooney’s latest achievement is just that. I loved this movie. CAROLINE: I’m so bummed I didn’t get to see it with you. I’m still on mommy duty and this was one I surely didn’t want to miss. Tell me all about it. RYAN: It’s a really intriguing political drama with a couple good ..
RYAN: I was so excited to see the new scary movie Dream House mostly because I love the cast but also cos the trailer sold it pretty well. CAROLINE: I was happy to let you have this one. I’m never a big fan of horror movies. RYAN: Well then maybe you’d have liked this more ..
RYAN: I couldn’t decide which would be a better catch on the big screen between Taylor Lautner’s Abduction and Ryan Gosling’s Drive so I went with my gut and chose the leading actor with better credits. CAROLINE: Good choice. Any regrets? RYAN: Several. CAROLINE: Ouch. Why? RYAN: It’s just a relatively boring movie that felt ..
RYAN: I wasn’t completely jazzed up, but certainly interested in seeing Brad Pitt’s latest flick Moneyball. CAROLINE: Oh honey – anyone would be interested, although it does look like quite a boy movie. Did you love or hate it? RYAN: I kinda loved it. It’s very much about the game, but it really intellectualizes it ..
RYAN: Although the new SJP movie has been pretty much universally panned by other critics, I’m going on the record to say it’s not that bad. CAROLINE: I’m quite glad to hear it. I love her and thought it looks kinda cute. RYAN: She’s just so damn likeable! It’s not a brilliant film, by any ..
RYAN: So after seeing the new movie Contagion, I think a better title might have been How to Become a Germaphobe! CAROLINE: [laughs’ …Without Really Trying? RYAN: Exactly. I feel like one already; but I swear, it took all my strength not to hightail it to the nearest Bath & Body Works to stock up ..
