Who Is Your Favorite Friends Alum?

Lauren Bradshaw — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 03:05:00 PST

Is it just me, or are the Friends stars experiencing a second coming? All six grads are on the Hollywood radar at the moment. Let's break it down: Courteney Cox stars on Cougar Town (a favorite here on Buzz), Matt LeBlanc recently debuted in Showtime's new series Episodes, and Matthew Perry will headline ABC's Mr. Sunshine on February 9.

But they're not the only ones, of course. Jennifer Aniston still maintains her post-Friends popularity, churning out one film after another. Up next for her: Just Go With It which comes out next month - right around the same time as Lisa Kudrow's new movie The Other Woman. Meanwhile, David Schwimmer is enjoying his time behind the camera; he's directing Trust, which is screening at this year's Sundance Film Festival.

Even though Friends will always be No. 1 in my book, it's nice to see the cast find success after the show - though I'm pulling for some of the stars more than others. I'm not spilling who in particular, 'cause I want to hear from you first: which Friends alumnus is your favorite?

Movie Preview: Natalie Portman Is The Other Woman

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 09:40:59 PST

It's a big time for Natalie Portman, personally and professionally; she just announced her pregnancy and engagement, and she's currently racking up acting nominations for her starring role in Black Swan. My fascination with her is at an all-time high, which makes watching her in her latest trailer all the more compelling. In The Other Woman, she plays Emilia, a woman who falls for her married boss. When he leaves his wife (Lisa Kudrow) for her, the couple is deliriously happy and have a baby together, and we get to see a uniquely sympathetic side to a common story.

Unfortunately, it's no modern happily-ever-after - tragedy strikes and the new stepmom must deal with her new life and the choices she's made. Portman is well-equipped to play a beautiful but flawed young woman (especially after she nailed the harrowing part in Black Swan), and The Other Woman makes good use of her ample talent. The film goes wide on Feb. 4 and will be available on demand on Jan. 1, but you can watch the preview when you

Easy A: Gets High Marks in Charm

Lauren Bradshaw — Fri, 17 Sep 2010 07:00:00 PDT

In Easy A, our heroine Olive Pendergast says she wants her life to be like a John Hughes movie. It's a lofty aspiration considering Hughes's reputation as the teen movie master, but it's one that the film unapologetically strives for with a playful wink. You have the alluring love interest à la Sixteen Candles (played here by Penn Badgley), Ferris Bueller-inspired shower karaoke, and a witty red-headed leading lady who is seemingly oblivious to her own coolness.

Emma Stone plays Olive, a teen homebody who's mistakenly branded as the school's own Hester Prynne after lying to her BFF (Aly Michalka) about losing her virginity. When the self-righteous religious club leader (Amanda Bynes) overhears, it's not long before everyone knows about Olive's supposed fling. Enter Brandon (Cougar Town's Dan Byrd), a bullied closeted gay student. Olive pretends to have sex with him to help his reputation, and she becomes the Mother Teresa of social outcasts, offering imaginary makeouts and boob fondling to help geeks up their popularity. When her charade spirals out of control, she's left without friends. To find out why I loved it,

Never before has Stone been required to carry a film, and she handles it with aplomb. The actress is perfectly convincing as a sharp-tongued girl who rattles off pop culture references as often as SAT words. Stone handles the vulnerability of her character's moral conflict (should she help others if it means hurting herself?) with ease, and of course it helps having an excellent ensemble to back her up. As Olive's parents, Stanley Tucci and Patricia Clarkson nearly steal the show as a goofy, loving couple who are genuinely friends with their daughter. Thomas Haden Church plays Olive's sarcastic, "cool" teacher, and Lisa Kudrow as his wife gets to be a guidance counselor who's delightfully crazy.

Thanks to its cast, the movie goes beyond your typical high school comedy, and even cutesy high school dialogue feels more endearing than irritating. It may not go down in history like the works of John Hughes, but in the company of more recent school movies, Easy A easily makes the grade.

Movie Preview: Ryan Reynolds Dons Tights in Paper Man

BuzzSugar — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 15:30:00 PDT

Dying for a glimpse of Ryan Reynolds in superhero mode before next year's Green Lantern? I have one . . . sort of. In Paper Man, he plays Captain Excellent, a caped crusader who only lives in the imagination of morose writer Richard, played by Jeff Daniels.

As Excellent, Reynolds is the bleach-blond manifestation of Richard's shortcomings. Frustrated with his presence, Richard hires Abby (Emma Stone) to "babysit" the captain, while Richard attempts to overcome his writer's block and prove to those around him (like his wife, Lisa Kudrow) that he's not a failure. Ultimately, a friendship emerges between the younger Abby and older Richard, in what's become a common cliche for indie dramas. But considering how much I like both Stone and Daniels, I think I'd enjoy watching them bond onscreen. As for Reynolds - frankly, he could chew gum and stare at the camera for 90 minutes and I'd still be enthralled.

To watch the trailer for Paper Man, just
