RYAN: “Tyler Perry’s I Can Do Bad All By Myself” is yet another cookie cutter Tyler Perry genre-blending dramedy like everything he’s ever done, except this one stars recent Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson. CAROLINE: After seeing one Tyler Perry movie with you last year, I can safely say I will never see another. But ..
RYAN: “Sorority Row” is a new chick horror movie starring such Hollywood heavy hitters as Rumer Willis and Audrina Patridge of “The Hills.” CAROLINE: LOL. How on earth did Rumer Willis break into the business? RYAN: And on what acting merits does Audrina get cast in a feature film? CAROLINE: Seriously. But I heard she ..
RYAN: “Extract” is the new comedy from the writer/director who brought us “Office Space,” an irreverent workplace comedy. CAROLINE: This hilarious movie focuses more on what it’s like to be the boss, and it’s inspired by Mike Judge’s experience becoming the boss back in his “Beavis and Butt-head” days. RYAN: I went into this movie ..
CAROLINE: The new movie “All About Steve” features Sandra Bullock in yet another romantic comedy despite her many claims that she’s not doing them anymore. RYAN: So why go ahead a do one that makes you look like a total nerd? CAROLINE: Oh my God, her hair! I pray it was a wig. It’s virtually ..
RYAN: “The September Issue” is kind of like the real-life version of “The Devil Wears Prada,” except much less fun. CAROLINE: It’s a documentary about Anna Wintour and her staff putting together the fall issue of Vogue, which is always the biggest, fattest issue. Or at least it used to be, pre-recession, when this movie ..
RYAN: “Taking Woodstock” is the new film from the Academy Award-winning director of “Brokeback Mountain,” Ang Lee. CAROLINE: This movie looks so cute to me and every time I see the commercial on TV, my heart sings a little. Sadly, I couldn’t attend the screening with you. How was it? RYAN: I’m really not into ..
CAROLINE: I took myself to see the latest Quentin Tarantino bloodbath, “Inglourious Basterds,” last weekend since neither of us could attend an advanced screening of it. Sadly, I was a little underwhelmed. RYAN: I haven’t seen it yet, but here’s what I expect going into any QT film: major gore, good music and a touch ..
CAROLINE: One of the cutest movies of the year, “Adventureland,” is new on DVD this week. I think this is one of my favorites of the year so far. I loved all the teenage angst. RYAN: Kristen Stewart was great in it. I adore her, and though we all know she’s not the best actress, ..
RYAN: “Post Grad” starring Alexis Bledel of “Gilmore Girls” and “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” fame started out with promise. It seemed like a cute story about a girl who just graduated from college and didn’t know what to do with her life; but then it turned into a messy jumble of genres. CAROLINE: The ..
CAROLINE: We are approaching a very juicy time of year where all the good Oscar-worthy movies are upon us!! Which means great trailers in the theaters right now. RYAN: Sadly, we never get to see them because there aren’t any trailers at critics’ movie screenings. But believe me, we’re watching ’em online. CAROLINE: I think ..
RYAN: One of my favorite horror movies ever, “The Last House on the Left,” is new on DVD this week. As I recall, you did not attend this screening with me. You have to rent it! CAROLINE: Ugh, I don’t know if I can stomach it. Graphic movies like this give me nightmares. RYAN: Well, ..
RYAN: “District 9” is the new science fiction thriller produced by Peter Jackson, who, as we all know, directed the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. CAROLINE: I was unable to attend this screening with you, and I can’t say I was sad about it. You know this genre isn’t really my bag. RYAN: I know ..
