Full disclosure: I laughed out loud many times during The Dictator, knowing full well that I should have been offended instead. But what you see is what you get when it comes to Sacha Baron Cohen, and after movies like Bruno and Borat, you already know whether you'll be able to find humor in film about a horrifyingly ignorant world leader who's as naive, racist, and prejudiced as they come.

Ever since Love Actually captured hearts and audiences with its huge cast and sweet intersecting story lines, there's been an overflow of ensemble comedies, and fatigue has officially set in. There are usually too many characters and subplots, and while What to Expect When You're Expecting does have a star-studded cast and a lot going on, it's funnier and more engrossing than most of the movies Read more

Ensemble romantic comedies are a dime a dozen these days, and let's face it: most of those star-studded flicks aren't even that good. But an ensemble superhero movie? Now that's an idea I can get behind. The Avengers rounds up an all-star group of comic book heroes who must get over their inflated egos and differences to take down a villain and save the world.

Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23, premiering tonight, is a latecomer to the midseason TV schedule, but it's got a promising cast (especially if you love '90s TV).

The cast also features James Van Der Beek, who's playing a version of Read more

Jennifer Lawrence has the intense starring role as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games, but she was far more relaxed (and downright charming) when she stopped by Late Night With Jimmy Fallon to talk about the movie. My girl-crush intensified as Lawrence admitted that she's not so comfortable with things like flying first class (slipping in a funny Harry Potter reference), and then when she joked Read more

There's lots of action in 21 Jump Street — car chases, shootouts, two mismatched partners — but the real reason to see it is that it's side-splittingly funny from beginning to end. Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill play Jenko and Schmidt, two relatively new cops whose incompetency lands them in an undercover program in high schools. Their assignment is to root out the dealers and suppliers of a Read more

PaleyFest ended on a high note last night as America's favorite Modern Family came out to talk about their hit comedy. The audience got a sneak peek at the show's next episode, and the cast sat down to answer some questions. The panel, which included Julie Bowen (Claire), Ty Burrell (Phil), and Sofia Vergara (Gloria), had no shortage of funny answers and great one-liners as they kept the audience Read more
