CAROLINE: Just Go With It is a new deceptive romantic comedy starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. RYAN: I didn’t get to attend the screening with you; why is it deceptive? CAROLINE: Because it’s actually a family comedy masquerading as a rom com, and I really didn’t appreciate that. I can’t believe this is the ..
RYAN: The new animated 3D movie Gnomeo & Juliet opens today, and though I can already predict what you thought of it, I actually liked it a lot. CAROLINE: I actually didn’t hate it. I was prepared to though, and I went in with a baditude as I always do with kids’ movies. This movie ..
RYAN: We’re so freakin’ excited about the Oscars coming up in a couple weeks! CAROLINE: Even though the major categories are completely predictable this year, except for maybe Best Picture, there’s still so much to get our freak on about. RYAN: I’m super jazzed about the co-hosts this year. I love Annie Hath. CAROLINE: It’ll ..
CAROLINE: Let’s devote as little time as possible to this review because it’s seriously not worth it. Sanctum is a movie about caves and diving. The end. RYAN: But it’s executive produced by James Cameron! And didn’t they use Avatar technology to film it in 3D? CAROLINE: Yes, but honestly I could barely tell the ..
CAROLINE: There’s yet another new Natalie Portman movie in town, The Other Woman, which co-stars Lisa Kudrow and this guy from Kissing Jessica Stein who I always found oddly handsome. RYAN: This one’s only out in limited release though. CAROLINE: Yeah, just NY and LA this weekend, but it’s also available on demand already. It’s ..
CAROLINE: It’s time for the most self-congratulatory awards show of the year! The SAG Awards were tonight, and let’s just say there were no big surprises. RYAN: Well, there was one – I assumed The Fighter was totally going to win for Best Cast. CAROLINE: I did too! That would have been much more deserved. ..
CAROLINE: Sir Anthony Hopkins’s latest thriller is called The Rite and it’s his turn to make an exorcist movie, apparently. I couldn’t bring myself to care. Was it any good? RYAN: In short, no. CAROLINE: Glad I dodged the bullet! Care to elaborate? RYAN: It was long, slow and rather boring. My guest Jonathan said ..
RYAN: The Oscar nominations have just been announced, and I swear it feels like Christmas morning!! CAROLINE: This is indeed one of our favorite days of the year! It’s always fascinating to me to see who gets nominated and who gets shut out. There are several tight races this year, especially in the Supporting Actor/Actress ..
CAROLINE: Just for fun, I thought we’d talk about the Razzie Award nominations which were announced today. RYAN: The Razzies are always held the night before the Oscars, which this year is Saturday, February 26th. And the nominations never disappoint. CAROLINE: I love how they nominate actors for multiple roles in different movies. Like, Ashton ..
RYAN: I had very low expectations for the new romantic comedy No Strings Attached, which stars Golden Globe winner Natalie Portman, and Bruce Willis’s son, Ashton Kutcher. CAROLINE: [laughs’ I went in with low expectations too, but I was hopeful that it could be really funny. We love rom coms and haven’t seen a good ..
CAROLINE: According to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Barney’s Version is a comedy for which Paul Giamatti deserves a Best Actor Golden Globe. I’ll give him the GG, but this movie is not a comedy. RYAN: I really wish the GGs would get rid of the Comedy or Musical category. It’s just so silly, and ..
RYAN: I normally don’t get all jazzed about Batman movie news; however, this time it includes Anne Hathaway. CAROLINE: Yes, honey, I know you love her. So she’s been cast in the new Dark Knight film?
