Owen's Runnew
Children of Men is basically V for Vendetta for grownups. Logan's Run with post-9/11 sensibilities. Blade Runner for -- yeah, OK, you get it: dystopia du jour.

One Thing After Anothernew
The adaptation of the Tony Award-winning play The History Boys is not, thankfully, a British retread of Dead Poets Society, no matter how the previews may try to make it out to be one.

Eau de WTFnew
Perfume doesn't stink so much as it just kinda smells disturbingly weird, like when you visit the house of that friend nobody else wants to hang out with.
