RYAN: I’m so excited about this year’s new musical Burlesque. Not only because it marks the acting debut of my favorite pop star, but because I live for movie musicals. CAROLINE: I love them too but I’m not quite sold on Christina Aguilera. And this movie looks so derivative. RYAN: Well the ensemble cast is ..
CAROLINE: Ladies and gentlemen, the trilogy is complete. New in theaters today is Step Up 3D, the sequel to Step Up, which launched Channing Tatum’s career, and the wretched Step Up 2 the Streets. RYAN: Wow, that second one was bad. But I love, love, love Scott Hoffman in it. He’s amazing. Anyway, please tell ..
CAROLINE: ‘Tis the season of so-so comedies, what with last week’s Dinner for Schmucks and now The Other Guys with Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. RYAN: You haven’t even seen Schmucks yet, so how can you call it so-so? CAROLINE: I’m just going on what you’ve told me, honey. RYAN: Well, I didn’t get to ..
RYAN: We’re big fans of The Steve Carell and The Paul Rudd so I was absolutely looking forward to their bromantic comedy Dinner for Schmucks. CAROLINE: Me too and only international travel has kept me from it. How did you like it? RYAN: It’s very amusing. Not really laugh out loud funny but cute and ..
RYAN: So the trailer for the new Zac Efron vehicle made it look like quite the weeper; a sweeping, sad, coming of age story along the lines of something that should have been written by Nicholas Sparks. CAROLINE: OMG totally! And I’d have liked to have seen it with you but unfortch, I couldn’t attend ..
RYAN: We’d like to welcome Jennifer Aniston’s nemesis, Angelina Jolie, back to the big screen this week in the new action-packed movie, Salt. CAROLINE: This movie started out as a vehicle for Tom Cruise, but when he dropped out, Angelina was more than happy to step in and play a badass. And there aren’t many ..
CAROLINE: The Tilda Swinton movie I Am Love came out about a month ago, but I just got to see it recently. I was so psyched for it since I’d heard nothing but raves about it and I have two friends who adored it. RYAN: I’ve heard great things too. How was it? CAROLINE: Eh. ..
CAROLINE: I feel very lucky to have seen an advanced screening of the much anticipated new movie, Inception, from The Dark Knight director, Christopher Nolan. RYAN: You should, and I’m beyond jealous. I’m so bummed to have missed this screening. But you know I’ll be seeing the movie this weekend. Start talking… but don’t give ..
RYAN: I’m bracing myself for the dissonance we’re about to face while discussing Nic Cage’s new movie The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. CAROLINE: As you should. You know I don’t like him and I think this movie looks painful and embarrassing for all involved. RYAN: But you didn’t see it! CAROLINE: And I never will. RYAN: Well, ..
RYAN: I was looking forward to seeing Despicable Me primarily since the little creatures in the trailer look so friggin’ cute. CAROLINE: Those little yellow gents? RYAN: Exactly. CAROLINE: My interest was more piqued by the fact Steve Carell voices the lead character; however, since you know I can’t stand animated kids’ movies, I let ..
CAROLINE: One of my most anticipated movies of the summer is The Kids Are All Right, which opens in limited release tomorrow. It was a huge hit at Sundance and we’ve been hearing about it ever since. And look at this cast! RYAN: I love everyone involved – Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Mia ..
CAROLINE: I politely ducked out of screening The Last Airbender with you since it’s really not up my alley. You know I don’t feel the whole family/fantasy/sci-fi genre. RYAN: True, but darling, this is M. Night Shyamalan, one of the most important directors of our time. CAROLINE: He has been an influence, perhaps with an ..
