RYAN: The 2010 remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street is here, and it’s not better than the original. CAROLINE: Having never seen the original, I cannot draw a comparison; but as predicted, I did not enjoy this movie. The only thing that makes it a tiny bit worthwhile is Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy ..
CAROLINE: Please Give is the new movie from one of my favorite directors, Nicole Holofcener, who directed Friends With Money a few years back. As with all of her films, it stars Catherine Keener, who we love. RYAN: This is definitely my favorite movie of Nicole Holofcener’s that I’ve seen. It’s a perfect mixture of ..
CAROLINE: I paid my own money to see a cool indie flick this past weekend, Exit Through the Gift Shop, which is directed by the British artist Banksy. RYAN: Am I a loser for having never heard of this movie? CAROLINE: Well, it’s only out in limited release and it probably won’t get to most ..
RYAN: The energy is out there. Robert Downey Jr. may portray the Wizard in a new movie about the land of Oz. CAROLINE: OMG you must be dying! RYAN: A little bit. CAROLINE: This could be the perfect marriage between something you love and someone I love. I just pray it’s not a kids’ movie. ..
RYAN: Fresh off the heels of a great comic book adaptation from last week, Kick-Ass, we now have The Losers, which co-stars Zoë Saldaña of Avatar fame.

RYAN: After a few weeks without a true romantic comedy or chick flick, The Back-Up Plan is ushering in the return of one Jennifer Lopez. CAROLINE: Will it be her big comeback, or will it fizzle like her latest single Louboutins? RYAN: I think J. Lo can and will do what she wants when she ..
CAROLINE: The Joneses is a fun new movie out in limited release with Demi Moore and David Duchovny among others. RYAN: I didn’t get to see this with you but the premise seems pretty cool.

RYAN: Just confirmed – Daniel Radcliffe set to star in a Broadway musical! CAROLINE: Ok, breathe.

CAROLINE: But can he sing and ..
RYAN: I was really looking forward to seeing Kick-Ass because I love a good superhero movie and this one has a vigilante twist. Plus it’s directed by Matthew Vaughn who last made one of my favorite movies of all time – Stardust. CAROLINE: It’s based on a comic book. I’m dying to see this with ..
CAROLINE: The new movie, Death at a Funeral, is a remake of a hilarious 2007 British film, which I rented a couple of years ago and loved. This one, not so much. I’m a little offended that they even did a remake so soon. It’s feels very American and gauche. RYAN: I’ve only seen parts ..
RYAN: Who Do You Love is a new movie based on the story of Chess Records and how The Blues broke into mainstream music.
