ATONEMENT

RYAN: After seeing “Atonement,” I feel that I must myself atone. There is a character in this movie who’s so horrible that it makes me feel bad.

JUNO

CAROLINE: I ran, did not walk, to the theater given the opportunity to catch the new movie, “Juno,” out today in limited release. It co-stars one of our favorites, Jennifer Garner, but more importantly it stars Ellen Page from that movie “Hard Candy,” and she’s getting Oscar buzz. RYAN: She was phenomenal and beyond her ..

New on DVD

RYAN: A 2-disc DVD of “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” comes out today! CAROLINE: I don’t care much for this franchise. Why must all three movies be more than 2 1/2 hours? But I know you like it. RYAN: The DVD has got the usual audio commentary, bloopers and some short films about ..

Movie News!

CAROLINE: Exciting news for Christian Bale fans like us! He’s going to play John Connor in the new “Terminator” movie. RYAN: OMG a fourth “Terminator”? I love it! I guess John Connor’s all growed up.

THE SAVAGES

CAROLINE: You, Ryan, weren’t that psyched to see “The Savages” because you thought it looked depressing. I, on the other hand, was rather excited for it, so I went by my lonesome this weekend at New York’s Angelika Film Center. And I’ll have you know that I paid $11.75!! Ticket prices have gone up again ..

THE DIVING BELL AND THE BUTTERFLY

RYAN: You saw “The Diving Bell and the Butterfly” without me. CAROLINE: It’s the new film from Julian Schnabel and it’s out today but only in limited release, so don’t look for it in your small town just yet. RYAN: I really love Julian Schnabel. He directed “Before Night Falls” with Javier Bardem. How did ..

MARGOT AT THE WEDDING

CAROLINE: I took myself to see “Margot at the Wedding” after you warned me against “Love in the Time of Cholera.” RYAN: Oh please, don’t even waste your time on that flick. CAROLINE: Don’t worry, I shan’t. As for “Margot,” I liked it, didn’t love it. The director, Noah Baumbach, who also did “The Squid ..

New on DVD

CAROLINE: Two movies we really liked are out on DVD today. First up is the sleeper hit of the year, “Waitress.” RYAN: Oh how we loved this movie! Keri Russell is sublime as a pregnant diner waitress who’s having an affair with her doctor. CAROLINE: It’s truly a must-rent, even if you’ve already seen it. ..

LOVE IN THE TIME OF CHOLERA

CAROLINE: I was all excited to go out and see “Love in the Time of Cholera,” but apparently I shouldn’t be rushing to the theater. RYAN: No, you shouldn’t, because it sucked. CAROLINE: OK wait. Seriously? It’s got Javier Bardem! RYAN: And I larfed at him. He was so inappropriate it this role; it was ..

AUGUST RUSH

RYAN: Happy Thanksgiving!! I am absolutely energized by the film we just saw. CAROLINE: It’s “August Rush” and it made me cry like a little baby. RYAN: I so enjoyed watching you cry. I even teared up m’self. This movie has brilliant performances across the board, but the greatest star of this film is the ..
