We here at The Takeaway don't want you to head into the weekend without knowing which movies to check out — particularly if Hurricane Irene is going to keep you indoors. Every Friday we review new films here at The Takeaway. This week, we're talking about the bromance-style comedy "Our Idiot Brother," the revenge thriller "Colombiana," and the horror movie remake "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark."
Rafer Guzman tells us what he thought of these three new movies, and which ones might be worth braving the storm to see. Guzman is a film critic for Newsday, and co-host of The Takeaway's Movie Date podcast.
