You don't have to go to the theater this weekend to see Lizzy Caplan and Alison Brie in the same movie.

Helen Hunt auditions to replace Penelope Cruz in the English-language remake of Woman on Top. Also, quick takes on the French movies Holy Motors and All Together.

Based on the actors -- Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World's Mary Elizabeth Winstead, The Help's Octavia Spencer and royal comedy couple Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally -- Smashed sounds like indie movie gold. Writer/Director newcomer James Ponsoldt and his co-writer Susan Burke even debuted the film at Sundance and won the U.S. Dramatic Special Jury Prize for Excellence in Independent Film Producing. Unfortunately though, unless you're going into the film with fairly low expectations, you'll be sorely disappointed. To get you ready for what's to come, here are five things Smashed certainly is not.

The How I Met Your Mother star tries to sweet-talk his Liberal Arts leading lady, Elizabeth Olsen, into playing his love interest this season. Also, our reviews of Arbitrage, Solomon Kane and two documentaries.

Following its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival way back in January -- where it barely attracted an iota of buzz, despite the presence of its extremely photogenic cast -- the indie-ish bookworm drama The Words is dumped into theaters on an exceptionally slow post-Labor Day weekend. You might think this indicates a lack of confidence on the studio's part... and you'd almost certainly be right. Although it's production values positively ooze class and a handful of scenes actually prove somewhat compelling, the overall experience of watching Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal's directorial debut is the cinematic equivalent of staring at a blank page for roughly 90 minutes. Here are seven words that perhaps best encapsulate The Words.

The eternal battle of the sexes spills over into the multiplex this weekend, as two raunchy comedies -- one female-driven and one distinctly for the boys -- compete for moviegoers' attention. In one corner, you've got Bachelorette, the Bridesmaids-like ensemble piece about a trio of bridesmaids (triple threats Kirsten Dunst, Lizzy Caplan and Isla Fisher) who get up to a whole lot of trouble the night before their best friend's wedding. And in the other corner stands The Inbetweeners, the feature film version of the hit British sitcom about four horny high-school kids (Simon Bird, James Buckley, Joe Thomas and Blake Harrison, reprising their small-screen roles) who celebrate their graduation by going on an alcohol-fueled holiday to a sunny Mediterranean party town. So which movie does its gender proudest? Here's how they stack up in a few key areas.

Cheer up, Rob. You may have lost KStew, but at least you've got a new person in your life: David Cronenberg. Also, our takes on Compliance, The Awakening and Side by Side

Laugh it up at this weekend with four indie comedies, including The Babymakers and Celeste and Jesse Forever.

Lauren Greenfield's new documentary The Queen of Versailles begins like a promo for the next big Bravo reality serial... call it, Timeshare Royalty. In this case, the subjects who are opening their lives (and their two houses) to the camera are David and Jackie Siegel, who up until recently were one of the wealthiest couples in Florida, if not the nation. David Siegel made his fortune via the timeshare titan Westgate Resorts, which offers lavish condo units to prospective part-time owners. Following two previous failed marriages, he wed former model (and diploma-carrying computer engineer) Jackie in 2000 and four years later they started construction on their dream house: a 90,000 square foot estate modeled after the Parisian palace for which it's named: Versailles.

By far the most buzzed-about movie at this year's Sundance Film Festival (and one of the first to get snapped up for distribution), Benh Zeitlin's Beasts of the Southern Wild is an altogether striking debut feature. Filmed on location in the bayous of Southern Louisiana, the film offers a "through a child's eyes" portrait of an impoverished rural community that's tinged with fantasy yet still firmly rooted in a compelling reality.
