JENNIFER’S BODY

RYAN: “Jennifer’s Body” is the new movie starring Megan Fox, who’s hotter than hot right now.

CAROLINE: Well between her alleged bad temper, her on/off relationship with David Silver, the self-confessed cutting and people saying she’s a wench to work with, she’s been having the best summer ever, press-wise.

RYAN: And she looks hot doing it. This movie is scary, hilarious and brilliant. I know I use the word “brilliant” a lot; but this time I’m serious.

CAROLINE: I’m so bummed I didn’t get to go to this screening with you. At first I wasn’t that psyched for it and thought it might be way cheesy, but now I’m dying to see it and will happily pay $12.50 to support the screenwriting efforts of Diablo Cody.

RYAN: It has a few cheesy moments, but it reminded me a lot of “Heathers,” which is duh, one of our all-time faves. It has so many quotable lines. As we know, Diablo Cody won the Oscar for writing “Juno,” and she has such a knack for adolescent dialogue and creating new vernacular.

CAROLINE: That’s cool, but some of the wacky language in “Juno” wound up being more irritating than anything else. I’m not looking forward to all the gore, but I’ll try to get over it. I even had a dream last night that I saw this movie and that Diablo herself was in the audience.

RYAN: It’s so worth seeing. The set design is outstanding. It has some true Shakespearean moments.

CAROLINE: How was Megan’s acting? Because we all know she couldn’t act to save her life in the “Transformers” movies.

RYAN: The highest compliment I can pay her is that she’s not bad.

CAROLINE: [laughs’ What about Amanda Seyfried?

RYAN: She’s unbelievable. All I know her is “Mamma Mia!” and TV’s “Big Love,” and I didn’t know she had this in her.

CAROLINE: What about the much ballyhooed girl-on-girl make out scene? Seems gratuitous to moi.

RYAN: It’s pretty fabulous. Also of note is Amy Sedaris as Amanda’s mother. It’s a pretty straightforward role, but just looking at her makes me want to laugh. Adam Brody from “The O.C.” is in it too, and he’s really cute and creepy.

CAROLINE: Your ringing endorsement has really inspired me. Clearly, I’ll have to see it this weekend.

RYAN: The only thing that’s making me nervous about telling you how good it is is that you’ll go in with too high expectations. I really didn’t know what to expect when I saw it, so I was pleasantly surprised. But I don’t want to over-hype it.

— BOTTOM LINE —

RYAN: It’s gory but also really funny and scary, which is a fun combo. There’s no inappropriate laughter at scary parts since there are actual funny scenes too. It’s sexy and cool, and I’d recommend seeing it in the theater. And I was scared when I walked home afterward.

CAROLINE: It sounds so good! Why is no one seeing it? The box office for opening weekend was pathetic.

RYAN: It baffles me. Get out and see it, people!
